INSTALLATION
Boundaries within the working area
Use the boundary wire to isolate areas inside the working area by creating islands around obstacles which cannot withstand a collision, for example flowerbeds, bushes and fountains. Lay the wire up to and around the area to be isolated, and then return it back along the same route. If pegs are used, the wire should be laid under the same pegs on the return route. When the boundary wires to and from the island are laid close together, the robotic lawnmower can drive over the wire.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The boundary wire may not be crossed on its way to and from an island.
Obstacles that can withstand a collision, for example, trees or bushes taller than 15 cm, do not need to be isolated with the boundary wire. The robotic lawnmower will turn around when it collides with this type of obstacle.
It is recommended to isolate all fixed objects in and around the working area. This results in the most gentle and silent operation and prevent the robotic lawnmower from getting stuck in the objects under any circumstances.
Obstacles that slope slightly, for example stones or large trees with raised roots, must be isolated or removed. Otherwise the robotic lawnmower can slide up onto this kind of obstacle causing the blades to be damaged.
Secondary areas
If the working area consists of two areas which the robotic lawnmower has difficulty travelling between, it is recommended to set up a secondary area. Instances of this are 45% slopes or a passage that is narrower than
60 cm. Lay the boundary wire then around the secondary area so that it forms an island outside of the main area.
The robotic lawnmower must be moved manually between the main and secondary area when the lawn in the secondary area has to be cut. The Secondary area operating mode must be used as the robotic lawnmower cannot travel on its own from the secondary area to the charging station. See 5.1 Operation selection Start on page 37. In this mode, the robotic lawnmower will never look for the charging station but will mow until the battery runs out. When the battery is flat, the robotic lawnmower will stop and the Needs manual charging message will appear in the display. Then place the robotic lawnmower in the charging station to charge the battery. If the main area has to be cut straight after charging, the START button must be pressed and the Main area selected before closing the hatch.
