Gardena R40Li manual Checking the loop

3.INSTALLATION

6.Connect the guide wire to the boundary wire with the help of a solderless coupler:

Insert the boundary wire in each of the holes in the coupler. Insert the guide wire in the centre hole in the coupler. Check that the wires are fully inserted into the coupler so that the ends are visible through the transparent area on the other side of the coupler.

Use pliers to completely compress the button on the coupler.

It does not matter which holes are used to connect each wire.

7.Staple down/bury the connector in the lawn.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Test that the guide wire works using the Calibrate guide (3-5)function before using the mower. See 3.8 First start-up and calibration on page 31.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

The guide wire may not cross the boundary wire, for instance a boundary wire that is laid out to an island.

3.7 Checking the loop

Check the loop signal by inspecting the indicator lamp on the charging station.

• Steady green light = good signals.

• Flashing blue light = interruption in the boundary wire, no signal.

• Flashing yellow light = interruption in the guide wire, no guide signal.

• Flashing red light = interruption in the charging station's antenna plate, no remote signal available. Contact GARDENA Central Service to rectify. See MEMO on page 4.

Steady blue light = weak signal. This may depend on the boundary wire being over 250 m in length or that the wire is damaged. If the mower still works, this is not a problem.

Steady red light = fault in a circuit board in the charging station. Contact GARDENA Central Service to rectify. See MEMO on page 4.

See 9.2 Indicator lamp in the charging station on page 58 if the lamp does not indicate a solid green light.
