3.3 Charging the battery

The Automower is supplied with an uncharged battery. As soon as the charging station is connected, it is possible to charge the mower.

1.Set the main switch to the OFF position.

2.Place the Automower in the charging station to charge the battery while you are laying the boundary wire.

From an uncharged state the battery takes about 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 hours until it is fully charged.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Automower cannot be used before the installation is complete.

3.4 Installation of the boundary wire

The boundary wire can be installed in one of the following ways:

•Securing the wire to the ground with staples.

It is preferable to staple down the boundary cable, if you want to make adjustments to the boundary wire during the first few weeks of operation.

•Bury the wire.

It is preferable to bury the boundary wire if you want to dethatch or aerate the lawn.

If necessary both methods can be combined so one part of the boundary wire is stapled down and the remainder is buried.

Best position for the boundary wire

The boundary wire should be laid so it:

•Forms a loop around the working area for Automower. Only an original boundary wire must be used. This is tinned and has a high quality insulation to withstand the dampness in the ground.

•Is a maximum of 1640 ft long.

•Maintains a maximum distance of 10 ft from Automower in the entire working area.
