Roomba battery
Always store Roomba charging on the Home Base or with the Charger plugged into the robot. For long-term storage, iRobot recommends that the battery be fully charged and then removed from the robot and stored in a cool, dry place. http://homesupport.irobot.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/648
Occasionally reset your Roomba and fully discharge the battery. Once every few months, you should reset your Roomba and fully discharge the battery: Remove the battery and hold down the POWER button for at least 5 seconds to reset Roomba. (For single-button robots, hold down the CLEAN button.) Reinstall the battery and charge it until the POWER light turns green. http://homesupport.irobot.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/647
