Mapping capability should not be inferred from a generic privacy promise.</description></item><item><title>What should a robot dock placement plan include?</title><link>https://homerobot.globaldragonm.com/articles/service-guides/robot-dock-placement-brief/</link><guid>https://homerobot.globaldragonm.com/articles/service-guides/robot-dock-placement-brief/</guid><description>Use the manufacturer&#39;s clearance and utility requirements for the exact dock. A visually convenient corner may not support charging, servicing or the robot&#39;s route.</description></item><item><title>How do you test a home robot against a real household task?</title><link>https://homerobot.globaldragonm.com/articles/service-guides/home-robot-task-test-protocol/</link><guid>https://homerobot.globaldragonm.com/articles/service-guides/home-robot-task-test-protocol/</guid><description>Define the task and conditions before testing, then record what happens. A demonstration on an empty floor may not represent the ordinary household workflow.</description></item><item><title>How do you estimate home-robot consumable costs?</title><link>https://homerobot.globaldragonm.com/articles/service-guides/robot-consumables-cost-example/</link><guid>https://homerobot.globaldragonm.com/articles/service-guides/robot-consumables-cost-example/</guid><description>List replacement items and use intervals from current vendor guidance, then label uncertain usage assumptions. Purchase price alone does not show recurring effort or cost.</description></item><item><title>What should you ask about home-robot repairs before buying?</title><link>https://homerobot.globaldragonm.com/articles/service-guides/robot-repair-support-scope/</link><guid>https://homerobot.globaldragonm.com/articles/service-guides/robot-repair-support-scope/</guid><description>Request model-specific service terms and distinguish troubleshooting, parts supply and physical repair. A warranty badge does not explain collection, labor or turnaround.</description></item><item><title>How do you compare a robot&#39;s offline and cloud-dependent functions?</title><link>https://homerobot.globaldragonm.com/articles/service-guides/robot-cloud-dependency-check/</link><guid>https://homerobot.globaldragonm.com/articles/service-guides/robot-cloud-dependency-check/</guid><description>Make a function-by-function dependency list from current official documentation. A product can retain basic operation while losing schedules, maps or remote controls.</description></item><item><title>How do you plan approved exclusion zones for a home robot?</title><link>https://homerobot.globaldragonm.com/articles/service-guides/robot-exclusion-zone-plan/</link><guid>https://homerobot.globaldragonm.com/articles/service-guides/robot-exclusion-zone-plan/</guid><description>Use manufacturer-supported barriers and controls, then verify limits under safe conditions. A virtual boundary should not be assumed to prevent every hazardous interaction.</description></item><item><title>What should you record during a home-robot return trial?</title><link>https://homerobot.globaldragonm.com/articles/service-guides/robot-trial-return-log/</link><guid>https://homerobot.globaldragonm.com/articles/service-guides/robot-trial-return-log/</guid><description>Confirm the return conditions before use and track practical observations. A trial invitation does not automatically mean every opened item or accessory is returnable.</description></item><item><title>What should a household receive after a robot setup service?</title><link>https://homerobot.globaldragonm.com/articles/service-guides/home-robot-service-handover/</link><guid>https://homerobot.globaldragonm.com/articles/service-guides/home-robot-service-handover/</guid><description>Request the installed configuration, owner access and routine instructions, not just a successful first run. Setup may not include ongoing maintenance or repair.</description></item><item><title>What should you check before selling or retiring a connected robot?</title><link>https://homerobot.globaldragonm.com/articles/service-guides/robot-retirement-data-erasure/</link><guid>https://homerobot.globaldragonm.com/articles/service-guides/robot-retirement-data-erasure/</guid><description>Follow the vendor&#39;s device and account procedures separately. A factory reset may not have the same effect as deleting stored cloud data or ending a subscription.</description></item></channel></rss>
