Roborock Robot Vacuum Error 10 — Filter blocked

Roborock Robot Vacuum · Error code Error 10

What Error 10 Means

The HEPA filter is clogged with dust, restricting airflow. Triggered by suction sensor.

Symptoms

  • Voice prompt 'Filter is blocked, please clean'
  • App shows Error 10
  • Reduced suction noticed before error
  • Filter visibly gray/black with dust

Common Causes

1
Filter overdue for cleaning

HEPA filter should be tapped/rinsed every 1-2 weeks.

2
Wet filter installed

Moisture restricts airflow and triggers a blockage warning.

3
Filter end-of-life

HEPA filters degrade after 150-200 hours of use.

4
Dustbin overfull

Compacted dust against the filter from a full bin.

How to Fix It

  1. Remove the dustbin and pull out the HEPA filter.
  2. Tap the filter against a trash can to dislodge loose dust.
  3. If the filter is washable, rinse only the plastic frame side under cool water — never wet the filter media.
  4. Air dry the filter for at least 24 hours before reinstalling.
  5. Empty the dustbin completely.
  6. If suction is still weak after cleaning, replace the filter.
