How to Set Up Your Samsung Jet Bot+

What You Will Need

• Samsung Jet Bot+
• SmartThings app (iOS or Android) with a Samsung account
• A 2.4 GHz WiFi network
• Clean Station dock (included) placed in its permanent location
• Sufficient floor space for the robot to navigate

Step 1: Set Up the Clean Station

1. Place the Clean Station (charging dock with auto-empty feature) against a wall on a flat, hard floor surface.
2. Leave at least one foot of clearance on each side and three feet of clearance in front of the dock so the robot can navigate in and out easily.
3. Plug the Clean Station into a nearby wall outlet. The indicator light will turn on.
4. Remove the dust bag packaging material from inside the Clean Station if present.

Step 2: Prepare the Jet Bot+

1. Remove all packaging tape, foam inserts, and protective materials from the robot.
2. Flip the robot over and ensure the brushes and wheels are free of packaging material.
3. Place the Jet Bot+ onto the Clean Station dock to begin its initial charge. The first charge takes approximately three to four hours.
4. Wait for the robot to fully charge before starting setup. The indicator light on the robot will change when charging is complete.

Step 3: Download the SmartThings App and Add the Jet Bot+

1. Open the SmartThings app and tap the + icon, then select Add Device.
2. Tap Samsung, then select Robot Vacuum or search for Jet Bot.
3. Press and hold the WiFi button on the Jet Bot+ (or the Start/Pause button, depending on the model) for three to five seconds until the WiFi indicator starts blinking.
4. Follow the on-screen instructions in the app. You may need to connect your phone temporarily to the Jet Bot's WiFi hotspot during setup.
5. Select your home 2.4 GHz WiFi network and enter the password.
6. Wait for the connection to complete, then name the robot and assign it to a room.

Step 4: Run the Initial Mapping Cycle

1. Before cleaning for the first time, prepare your home:
   • Pick up small objects, cords, and loose items from the floor.
   • Close bathroom doors if you do not want the robot to enter.
   • Fold up loose rug tassels or remove lightweight rugs that might get caught.
2. Start the first cleaning cycle from the SmartThings app or by pressing Start on the robot.
3. The Jet Bot+ uses LiDAR sensor technology to map your home during its first run. Allow it to complete the full cycle without interruption for the best map quality.
4. After the initial run, the map will appear in the SmartThings app. You can review and edit it.

Step 5: Configure Cleaning Preferences

In the SmartThings app, customize the Jet Bot+'s cleaning behavior:

• Room Selection — After mapping, you can select specific rooms to clean rather than the entire home.
• No-Go Zones — Draw virtual boundaries on the map to keep the robot away from certain areas (pet bowls, delicate furniture, etc.).
• Suction Power — Adjust between quiet, normal, and maximum suction modes.
• Scheduling — Set daily or weekly cleaning schedules so the robot cleans automatically.
• Clean Station Settings — Configure the auto-empty feature, which automatically transfers collected debris from the robot into the Clean Station's dust bag after each run.

Tips for Best Performance

• The Jet Bot+ connects directly via WiFi — no SmartThings Hub is required.
• Empty the Clean Station's dust bag every one to two months depending on usage. Replacement bags are available from Samsung.
• Clean the robot's brushes and sensors monthly. Hair and debris can wrap around the brush roller and reduce cleaning effectiveness.
• The robot works with Alexa, Google Assistant, and Bixby for voice-activated cleaning commands.
• If the robot gets stuck repeatedly in a certain area, use the No-Go Zone feature or physically adjust the obstacle.
