What maintenance routine has helped your Dreame robot perform its best?

I've been using my Dreame robot for a while now, and I've noticed that regular maintenance makes a huge difference in both cleaning performance and navigation. Besides emptying the dust bin and cleaning the filters, I've started wiping the sensors weekly, checking the side brush for tangled hair, and cleaning the charging contacts every couple of weeks.

I'm curious what maintenance routine everyone else follows. Do you replace consumables on a schedule, wait until the app reminds you, or just inspect everything after a certain number of cleaning cycles? Have you found any simple maintenance tips that noticeably improved suction, mopping performance, or mapping accuracy?

I'd love to hear what has worked best for other Dreame owners and maybe pick up a few new ideas to help keep these robots running smoothly over the long term.

I do a weekly clean of brush, vacuum out dust box, and put the mop pads in the clothes washer, wipe down sensors. Every 3 weeks or so, clean out base, including washboard (manual clean, not the robot's self-cleaning).
