Scooba Cleaning Solution

formulated by Clorox®

Scooba cleaning solution is specially formulated by Clorox®to be safe for use in Scooba. The solution is designed to be tough enough for cleaning, but safe around children and pets.

CAUTION: Use only Scooba cleaning solution or white vinegar. Other solutions may damage Scooba causing corrosion of electronic parts, excessive foaming, and poor traction. Use of other solutions may damage the robot and voids the warranty. You also can use Scooba with plain tap water.

Scooba cleaning solution has been specifically engineered to be safe and effective on hard floor surfaces, including tile, linoleum, vinyl, marble, slate, stone, and sealed hardwood.

The solution contains no bleach.

CAUTION: DO NOT USE SCOOBA ON THESE SURFACES:

Carpet or rugs

Unsealed hardwood or stone

Laminate flooring (such as Pergo®)

Scooba is not recommended for use on unfinished or unsealed hard floor surfaces, carpet, rugs or waxed floors. These surfaces may be damaged by water (an unsealed floor does not have a coat of polyurethane to protect the sub-flooring from water damage). Additionally, Scooba is not safe for use with laminate flooring which may be damaged by wet cleaning methods.

TIP: When using Scooba on sealed hardwood floors, inspect the floor surface for worn finish, bare wood, or separated and unsealed joints. Do not use Scooba on your hardwood floor if any of these conditions exist. Follow the floor manufacturer’s cleaning recommendations.

Approved Cleaning Solutions

iRobot approves using only Scooba cleaning solution or 2 oz. of white vinegar with Scooba. iRobot does not assume responsibility for floor damage caused by the use of vinegar on hard floor surfaces. Scooba may also be run with plain tap water.

TIP: Scooba is designed to work with 1.5 ounces of Scooba cleaning solution or 2 ounces of white vinegar and water. You also can use Scooba with plain tap water.
