Abstract

A method of operating a mobile cleaning robot can include navigating the mobile cleaning robot within an environment. Whether a movement condition is satisfied can be determined and a mopping pad tray can be moved relative to a body of the mobile cleaning robot between a cleaning position and a stored position in response to receipt of a command to move the mopping pad tray when the movement condition is satisfied.
