4.4 Operating mode Park
When the PARK button is pressed the following
operation selections can be chosen.
4.4.1 Park until further notice
The robotic lawnmower stays in the charging station
until another operating mode is selected by pressing the
START button.
4.4.2 Start again in 3 hours
The robotic lawnmower stays in the charging station for
three hours and then automatically returns to normal
operation. This operation selection is suitable when
there is a need to pause operation, e.g. for temporary
irrigation or for games on the lawn.
4.4.3 Start with next timer
The robotic lawnmower stays in the charging station
until the next Timer setting permits operation. This
operation selection is suitable if one wishes to cancel an
ongoing mowing cycle and allow the robotic lawnmower
to stay in the charging station until the next day.
4.5 Stop
1. Press the STOP button.
The robotic lawnmower stops, the blade motor stops
and the hatch opens.
4.6 Switch off
1. Press the STOP button.
2. Set the main switch to position
0
.
Always switch the robotic lawnmower off using the main
switch if it requires maintenance or if the robotic
lawnmower must be moved outside the working area.
4.7 Timer and Standby
Use the timer function (see
Timer on page 23
) to avoid
a downtrodden lawn.
4.7.1 Standby
The robotic lawnmower has an inbuilt standby period
according to the Standby time table. The standby period
provides for instance a good opportunity to water or play
games on the lawn.
Model
Standby time, hours per day
Automower 310 min. 6
Automower 315 min. 2
4.7.2 To set the timer
When setting the timer, calculate that the robotic
lawnmower mows about the amount of the number of
square meters per hour and day listed in table Work
capacity.
Model
Work capacity, m
2
/ sq. ft. per hour
and day
Automower 310 About 56 / 603
Automower 315 About 68 / 732
If the working area is for example 800 m
2
/ 8611 sq. ft. in
size, Automower 310 must operate for 14 hours a day.
The times are approximate and depend for instance on
grass quality, blade sharpness and battery age.
WARNING: Use the timer to avoid mowing
when there are usually children, pets and
anything else that could be damaged by the
rotating blades on the lawn.
The factory settings for the timer allow the robotic
lawnmower to operate around the clock 7 days a week.
However, the robotic lawnmower will not operate during
the built-in standby period.
4.7.3 Example 1
The times used in this example are applicable to
Automower 310, but the principle is the same for other
models.
Timer setting,
Period 1
: 07:00 am - 11:00 pm
Active period (A): 07:00 am - 08:00 pm
The factory setting ensures that the robotic lawnmower
begins cutting the lawn at 00:00 am. However the
mower is parked in standby mode in the charging station
from 08:00 pm and rests until it starts cutting again at
00:00 am.
If the timer setting is divided into 2 work periods, the
standby period can be divided into a number of periods.
The minimum standby period time must however be
according to the Standby time table.
