3. INSTALLATION
3.9Test docking with the charging station
Before using the robotic lawnmower, check that the robotic lawnmower can follow the guide wire all the way to the charging station and easily docks with the charging station. Perform the test below.
1.Open the control panel cover by pressing the STOP button.
2.Place the robotic lawnmower close to the point where the guide wire is connected to the boundary wire. Place the robotic lawnmower about 7 ft (2 m) from the guide wire, facing the guide wire.
3.Select Home mode by pressing the house symbol key and pressing OK when the cursor is at Home. Press Start and close the cover.
4.Check that the robotic lawnmower follows the guide wire all the way to the charging station and that it docks with the charging station. The test is approved only if the robotic lawnmower is able to follow the guide wire the entire distance to the charging station and docks at the first attempt. If the robotic lawnmower is unable to dock on the first attempt, it will automatically try again. The installation is not approved if the robotic lawnmower needs two or more attempts to dock with the charging station. In this case, check that the charging station, the boundary wire and the guide wire are installed in accordance with the instructions in Chapters 3.2, 3.4 and 3.6.
5.The robotic lawnmower will stay in the charging station until Auto or Man mode is selected. See 5.1 Operation selection on page 40.
The guide system must first be calibrated if the above test is to provide a satisfactory result. See 3.8 First
