# Four ways to recharge Yarbo

**1. Using the Physical Controller:** Drive Yarbo back to the docking station with the physical controller. After approximately 3 minutes, Yarbo will announce “ready to charge” and “start charging,” and will then begin charging automatically.

**2. Using the App Controller:** If you’re controlling Yarbo via the mobile app, navigate to _Controller_ \> _Recharge_. Yarbo will announce “ready to charge” and “start charging” and will start charging automatically.

**3. Using the Recharge**  **Button**  **on the App Map:** If Yarbo is within the mapped area of the app (the designated work area, pathway, or docking station green box), simply tap the _Recharge_ button to initiate charging. If Yarbo is outside this mapped area, manually drive it back into the map area before using the _Recharge_ function.

**4. Using the Wired Charger:** A wired charger is included in the box. Open Yarbo’s rear cover to access the charging port, and plug in the wired charger to start charging.
