Neato series d80 - doesn't return to base

Neato doesn't return to base after pushing stop cleaning in the menu - it stays in places

I got it as a gift two days ago. I activated it twice, worked well. Today, after the third activation, it didn't return the its base. I push the stop cleaning in the menu, and it stays in his place.

On the first two times, when I pushed "stop cleaning", it was returning to its base by its own.
I tried to change the location, 3ft free for every direction and still it stays in his place after pushing the stop cleaning.

I can't recall if there was a "return to base" option on the first 2 time, but now there isn't.

It's possible that the robot did not detect its home base during the cleaning run. If so then it cannot return to a home base it doesn't know about.

I thought the robot knows were the homebase is based on navigation.

It's my understanding that the Neato must travel and register the homebase during a cleaning run.
