Frequently Asked Questions

Why does my Roborock keep showing Error Code 2?
Recurring Error Code 2 typically means debris keeps accumulating in the bumper area, the sensors need cleaning, or there's a mechanical issue with the bumper spring mechanism. Regular maintenance and cleaning can prevent most occurrences.
Can I still use my Roborock with Error Code 2?
No, you should not use the vacuum when Error Code 2 is displayed. This error indicates a safety issue with the collision detection system, which could lead to damage to your furniture or the vacuum itself.
How often should I clean the bumper to prevent Error Code 2?
Clean the bumper area and sensors weekly if you use your Roborock daily, or every few uses if you run it less frequently. Homes with pets or high debris levels may need more frequent cleaning.
What if the bumper looks clean but Error Code 2 still appears?
If the bumper appears clean but the error persists, the internal spring mechanism may be damaged, or there could be an issue with the bumper sensors. This typically requires professional diagnosis or replacement parts.
