The warning may refer to airflow or an obstructed detection area rather than the amount of loose dust. Emptying alone will not clear every cause.

A robot’s round body may leave a strip beneath cabinet overhangs. Measure the recess and compare practical reach rather than assuming an extending arm reaches every edge.
