12. Docking station

12.1 LED on the docking station

A red LED (1) provides information on the
status of the docking station and the wire
signal.
Red LED illuminates continuously
Red LED flashes slowly
Red LED flashes rapidly
Red LED flashes continuously
LED inactive
Red LED illuminates continuously:
The robotic mower is not located in the
docking station and the wire signal is
activated or the robotic mower is docked
and in standby.
0478 131 9923 B - EN
Red LED flashes slowly:
The robotic mower is located in the
docking station and the battery is charged.
The wire signal is deactivated.
Red LED flashes rapidly (approx. 2x per
seconds):
The perimeter wire is not correctly
connected to the docking station or the
wire signal is no longer present owing to a
defective perimeter wire (wire break).
Red LED flashes rapidly at intervals:
The LED flashes alterative 3 times at 1-
second intervals, 3 times at 2-second
intervals, 3 times at 1-second intervals, 5
second pause. After the pause, the signal
is repeated.
In the case of this flashing sequence, a
fault is present in the docking station.
( 24.)
Red LED inactive:
The robotic mower is in standby in the
docking station, the wire signal is
deactivated.
Switching on the docking station
– During automatic operation, the
docking station is switched on and off
automatically.
– Switching on manually:
Open the flap of the docked robotic
mower and press the OK or the Back
button. The robotic mower and the
docking station are switched on.
The docking station is switched on
exclusively via the docked robotic
mower.
In order to activate the docking
station, first place the robotic
mower in the docking station and
switch it on by pressing the button.

13. Notes on mowing

13.1 General
The robotic mower is designed for the
automatic mowing of lawns. The grass is
kept short through continuous mowing.
The result is a perfect, thick lawn.
Lawns that have not previously been
mown using a conventional lawn mower
will only be mown neatly following several
mowing operations. Especially in the case
of high grass, a good cutting pattern is only
achieved after a few mowing operations.
In hot, dry conditions, the lawn should not
be kept too short as it will otherwise be
burnt by the sun and become unsightly.
The cutting pattern will be better with a
sharp blade than with a blunt one; the
blade should therefore be replaced
regularly.

13.2 Mulching

The robotic mower is a mulching mower.
During mulching, the grass clippings are
further shredded in the mowing deck
housing after cutting. They then fall back
into the turf, where they remain and
decompose.
The finely shredded clippings return
organic nutrients to the lawn, serving as a
natural fertiliser. Fertiliser requirements
are thereby reduced significantly.
