WYze robot vacuum cliff sensor

[fafestival]

I would like to be able to turn off the cliff sensor. I am in a 1 story house but I have 2 rugs with geometric designs and black lines. The vacuum will not cross the black lines, just goes in circles. My WYZE support person said it was sensing a cliff. I would like to turn off that sensor and see if I can get my 2 rooms cleaned. I love my rugs and my vacuum. Now if they would just work together.
