a note of where the guide cable (24) is positioned
so that it is not damaged during future garden
projects. Make a drawing or take photos to docu-
ment the arrangement. If the guide cable (24) is
not buried in the ground you should not scarify or
aerate near the guide cable (24) so as to avoid
damaging it.
5.5.2 Installing the search loop
•
The guide cable (24) forms a search loop
which is used by the robot lawn mower to find
its way back to the charging station (19).
•
Lay the guide cable (24) in a straight line for
least 1 m in front of the charging station (19)
and for at least 0.5 m behind the charging
station (19) (Fig. 4a). Curves immediately in
front of the charging station (19) could cause
problems when docking for charging.
•
The guide cable (24) should enclose a mini-
mum area of 5 m² (Fig. 4a). It is recommen-
ded to use the entire length of the guide cable
(24) and to lay it in the shape of a square as
far as possible. The search loop should be ori-
entated so that the robot lawn mower is well
able to get to the charging station (19) from
any point in the garden.
•
The distance between two guide cables (24)
should amount to at least 0.8 m (Fig. 4a).
•
The guide cable (24) is not allowed to cross
over itself.
•
Make sure there are no obstacles on the gui-
de cable (24).
•
Make sure there are no obstacles within a di-
stance of approx. 30 cm to the left and right of
the guide cable (24) (Fig. 4c). Keep away from
the garden boundary and from overly high
paving stones. If the path runs at ground level
with the lawn you can lay the guide cable (24)
there without leaving a gap.
5.6 Connecting the charging station
Finish laying the complete guide cable (24) before
you connect the free end to the charging station
(19).
Pull out the power plug before you connect the
guide cable (24) to the charging station (19). The
guide cable is already partly fi tted to the charging
station. Namely, the guide cable is already laid
underneath the charging station and is connected
to the left black connector. Check that this con-
nection is securely seated.

After the guide cable (24) has been laid, pass the
free end through the hole and connect it to the red
connection on the right (Fig. 4d).
Important! The guide cable (24) is not allowed to
cross over itself!
Then connect the power supply. When the ins-
tallation is completed correctly, the LED display
(19a) on the charging station (19) should light up
green permanently. If the LED does not light up,
check the connections fi rst.
If the LED lights up green but not permanently,
read the table entitled "Display on the charging
station and troubleshooting" at the end of these
operating instructions.
5.7 Mowing area - Obstacles and mowing
area boundaries
5.7.1 Lawn boundary
The mowing area must have a precise and fully
enclosing lawn boundary. Familiarize yourself with
the possibilities for defi ning a lawn boundary as
described in this section. Then start at any point of
the lawn boundary with an examination of the gar-
den boundary and follow the boundary in a circle
until you arrive back at your starting point.
Any sections of the work area that you want to
exclude must be enclosed likewise with a precise
lawn boundary. Proceed in the same way as for
the outer boundaries of the mowing area.
•
Bottlenecks
If the lawn area has a bottleneck, your robot
lawn mower will be able to operate there as
long as the corridor has a width of at least 1.2
m and a maximum length of 8 m (Fig. 5a). In
the case of long and narrow bottlenecks, the
robot lawn mower might no longer be able to
fi nd its way back to the charging station (19).
•
Distance from the lawn boundary
When the robot lawn mower approaches the
lawn boundary, this will be detected by the
camera unit (15) at the front of the robot lawn
mower. The lawn-free distance should amount
to at least 30 cm (Fig. 5b). Check that there is
no diff erence in height at the lawn boundary
as the robot lawn mower might travel beyond
the exact lawn boundary before it stops and
sets off again in a diff erent direction. Deeper
lying garden beds or elevated paving edges
might result in damage to the robot lawn
mower. Check the lawn boundaries regularly
because if they become overgrown this could
result in the robot lawn mower leaving the
