Bringing Next Generation Intelligence to Robotic Vacuum Cleaners: RPS Technology„, Laser-based Vision & Room Mapping: The Neato XV-21 is equipped with onboard Room Positioning System (RPS) technology, a revolutionary system developed by Neato Robotics that combines laser vision with mapping.

With RPS technology, the robot uses its laser to see its surroundings and create accurate maps of areas to be cleaned €“ including furniture, objects and doorways. The robot constantly updates its map of the room, so if a new object is added into the room during a cleaning run, the robot will add it to the map.

First time use

Place your robot vacuum on the charge base for its initial charge. Neato is ready to clean when the status light turns solid green. Charge the batteries overnight before you use your Neato XV-21 for the first time. After that, run through three complete cycles of charging and cleaning-until-recharge to get the most capacity from your batteries.

How do I get the most from my Neato XV-21 battery?

You can recalibrate your Neato robot€s batteries to improve capacity and lengthen runtime between charges. You may need to recalibrate the batteries in these situations:

• The robot is new
• The batteries are new
• You updated the software
• Your cleaning area expanded


Follow the steps below to recalibrate the battery:



1. Turn off any scheduled cleaning and confirm the robot's ON/OFF switch is ON.

2. Reset the batteries by going to MENU->SUPPORT->NEW BATTERIES.

3. Place the Neato robot on its charge base over night to ensure a full charge.

4. Run the robot until it finishes cleaning the maximum area you ever want it to clean (i.e. the entire house), or until the robot displays €œBattery Low€ on its display and needs to recharge.

5. Dock the robot on its charge base for a full charge, until the status light turns solid green.

6. Run the robot as usual until it needs to recharge again.

7. If the runtime improves to longer than 40 minutes, the batteries have been recalibrated. If the run-time is still less than 40 minutes, go through the recharging cycle again.
