Please help, similar to the person who posted about their S6 - My new S4 Max will not go on the area rug. The rug is not black, and not thick. Video here https://youtu.be/0QOxRP1bVXM
Is there anything I can do ? I even tried manually driving the robot onto the rug today and it refused.
Hi, thanks for reaching out. It seems that the bumper of the robot was triggered. It's possible that the edge of the carpet is kind of curled up. The carpet itself is not thick, but when it curls up, it'll become higher and trigger the bumper.
We suggest you use some tap to keep the edge fixed to the ground to try again.
Thank you for your response. The edge of the rug is a typical area rug and not curled. I can't imagine that it is any higher or different than the robot needing to transition from a hard surface to a carpeted floor in other homes. If taping my rug to the floor is the only solution, then I will need to return the robot and try one of the competitors.
