Introduction

The Front Bumper is on the top of the device (if looking from an overhead view). The purpose of the Front Bumper is to detect any walls or boarders that may be in the room that it is cleaning. The Bumper is used to prevent it from damaging them by using the sensors in the front to slow down and gently touch the walls/boarders.

Before you begin using this guide, make sure that your Roomba is turned off and disconnected from the charging station, or Home Base.
