6.3 Timer (1)
The lawn should not be cut too often to obtain the best
mowing result. Consequently, it is important to limit the
operating time using the timer function if the working
area is less than the mower's working capacity. When
Automower
®
is allowed to mow too much, the lawn
may appear flattened. Besides, the mower is subjected
to unnecessary wear.
The timer function is also an ideal means to control
during which periods Automower
®
should not mow, for
example, when the children are playing in the garden.
The factory setting is 07:00 - 23:00 and it allows
mowing every day of the week. This is normally a
suitable setting for a 500 m
2
working area.
When setting the timer, calculate that the robot lawn
mower mows about 30 m
2
per hour and day.

A clock icon is displayed on the start page when the
timer settings are set. The clock icon is black when the
mower is not allowed to mow due to a timer setting and
it is white when the mower is allowed to cut.
The mower has an inbuilt rest period of at least 8 hours
a day. The mower is parked in the charging station
during this period. See 4.2 Using the timer on page 35.
