6 Preparing the Mowing Area and Robot Mower for Operation

Areas (3) the robot mower must not navigate and
obstacles it must not come into contact with must
be blocked off from the remaining mowing area
with the help of the perimeter wire (1).
If the robot mower identifies a blocked-off
area (3), it will slow down and then continue to
move in a different direction.
In mowing operation, the robot mower leaves the
docking station by itself and mows the lawn.
The robot mower is operated by the MYiMOW
app and the buttons in the control panel on the
robot mower. Light strips on the robot mower as
well as an artificially generated voice output pro‐
vide information about the current status of the
robot mower.

If the battery's state of charge is low, the robot
mower will search for the nearest guide wire (4)
during the mowing operation. If a guide wire (4)
is recognized, the robot mower will return to the
docking station by itself. The docking station
recharges the battery. At least one guide wire (4)
must be installed in the mowing area. A maxi‐
mum of two guide wires can be installed. If the
mowing operation is canceled or the battery must
be charged, the robot mower can be sent directly
back to the docking station using the MYiMOW®
app or the Home pushbutton.

Up to three starting points (5) can be specified
on a guide wire (4). The robot mower can move
specifically to the respective starting point and
start mowing from there.
The mowing area can be divided into several
zones (example: A and B) by the guide wire (4).

The zones are defined by a starting point (5).
The robot mower can be directed from the selec‐
ted starting point to the left or right into the
desired zone. The robot mower can then mow
specifically in the selected zone. The starting
points and zones are managed in the MYiMOW
app and can be taking into account in the mow‐
ing plan.
If there is a confined section (6) in the mowing
area, the robot mower navigates the confined
area, provided that a particular minimum width is
maintained between the perimeter wires. If the
minimum distance cannot be maintained, a guide
wire (7) must be routed through the confined
section (6). The guide wire (7) then guides the
robot mower directly through the confined sec‐
tion (6) to a starting point (8). From the starting
point (8), the robot mower can mow the mowing
area behind the confined section (6). How often
the starting point (8) is accessed by the robot
mower can be managed by the MYiMOW
and taken into account in the mowing plan.

6.1 Planning and preparing mow‐
ing areas
Plan and prepare the mowing area prior to com‐
missioning the robot mower. This enables a
robust installation and smooth operation and
eliminates potential sources of faults.
