5.CONTROL PANEL
5.1Operation selection
The operation selection button is symbolised by a house. When the button has been pressed, the selected operation mode is shown in the display. By consecutively pressing the button many times, one can choose between three different operation modes.
1.HOME:
Sends the robotic lawnmower to the charging station. It remains here until another operation mode is selected. The text Home is shown in the operation window. When the battery is fully charged, the robotic lawnmower will remain parked in the charging station. The robotic lawnmower will first leave the charging station and begin mowing again when the operation selection is altered to AUTO.
The Home setting is also used after a new installation or when changes are made to an existing installation to test if the robotic lawnmower can follow the guide wire and dock with the charging station. See 3.9 Test docking with the charging station on page 34.
2.AUTO:
The standard, automatic operation mode where the robotic lawnmower mows and charges automatically.
3.MAN:
When mowing secondary areas (see
3.4 Installation of the boundary wire on page 22) the MAN setting must be used.
If MAN is selected and the robotic lawnmower starts when it is out on the lawn, it will mow until the battery runs out. It will then stop and the 'Needs manual charging' message will appear. The robotic lawnmower must then be moved manually to the charging station and then started manually after charging.
If the robotic lawnmower charges in the MAN mode, it will fully charge, move about 8” (20 cm) out of the charging station and then stop. This indicates that it is charged and ready to start mowing.
If the main working area has to be cut after charging, it is appropriate to switch the operation mode to Auto before placing the robotic lawnmower in the charging station.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Always press the START button before closing the cover to start the robotic lawnmower. If the START button is not pressed, a message beep is heard and the robotic lawnmower will not start.
