4. USE

4.2 Using the timer

The lawn should not be cut too often to obtain the best mowing result. Use the timer function (see 6.4 Timer

(2)on page 43) to avoid a downtrodden lawn and to get the maximum life from your Automower®.

For example, the quality of your lawn will improve if it is mown every other day instead of 12 hours each day. In addition, the grass benefits from resting completely during at least a three-day period once a month.

4.3 Use of SMS function

For increased control of Automower® there is an SMS function (see 6.6 Settings (4) on page 51) that enables the mower to communicate with its user. When the mower needs assistance for any reason, it sends an SMS message to the preset mobile phone.
