The STOP button on the top of Automower is mainly used to stop the mower when it’s running. When the STOP button is pressed a cover opens, behind which there is a control panel. The STOP button remains depressed until the cover is closed again. This acts as start inhibitor.

The control panel on the top of the Automower is where you manage all the mower settings. The main switch is also located on the control panel. Open the control panel cover by pressing down the STOP button.

When the main switch is turned ON for the first time, a start-up sequence begins which includes: selection of the language, time format, date format and four digit PIN code, plus setting of the time and date, see page 34.

The selected PIN code must then be entered each time the main switch is moved to the ON position. This theft-prevention function is called Time lock (4-1-2)and Automower has this function activated as a default setting. The function also means that the mower stops mowing after a set number of days and will not continue until the correct PIN code has been entered. The function can be deactivated or changed as required. For more information about Time lock (4-1-2), see page 60.

The Automower can enter a sleep mode to save power. The display on the control panel is then completely dimmed.

The sleep mode is activated 25 minutes after the STOP button has been pressed and then not reset to the operating mode. Automower is then activated by switching the main switch off and on.

The sleep mode can also be activated in the event of a fault occurring during mowing or charging and which is not rectified within 25 minutes. The Automower is then activated by pressing the STOP button.
