Maintenance and storage

Maintenance work that has not been described in these instructions must be carried out by a
servicing agency authorised by the manufacturer. Only use original parts.
Maintenance
Check and clean your Robotic Mower regularly and replace worn parts if necessary. Preferably
use a dry brush, a damp cloth or a sharpened wooden piece.
Never use flushing water.
Following these maintenance instructions can extend your Robotic Mower's service life.
Battery Life
The Robotic Mower has a maintenance free Li-ion battery, with an estimated life of more than 2
years (depending on treatment and usage).
Winter Storage
During winter, keep your mower, docking station and power supply in a dry place.
We recommend a shed, garage or preferably store it indoors.
Prepare your device for winter storage as follows:
1. Fully recharge the battery.
2. Set the mains power switch to "OFF".
3. Thoroughly clean your Robotic Mower.
4. Unplug the power supply from the mains outlet.
5. Disconnect the power supply from the docking station.
6. Disconnect the boundary wire from the docking station. Lift up the docking station and clean.
The boundary wire can remain outside. However, it is imperative to protect the wire against
corrosion. We recommend a water-free grease or suitable sealing tape.
If available, repack the product in the original packaging.
Alternatively, our service centre offers a winter service for your device. This will include a check-up
of all parts and - if available - a software upgrade.
Preparing for spring
After winter storage, please clean the charging contacts on both the Robotic Mower and the
docking station.
Use a fine abrasion paper or a brass brush; this will help to achieve the best charging efficiency
and avoid any charging interference.
Cleaning the mower body
As your Robotic Mower is battery powered you need take care when cleaning. Remove rough dirt
with a soft brush. Use a manual water spray with mild household detergent for intensive cleaning.
Wipe off any residue after cleaning with a moist rag.
Disposal
To help the environment, please dispose of the product properly when it has reached the end of
its useful life and not in the household waste. Information on collection points and their opening
hours can be obtained from your local authority.
Li-Ion environmental damage through incorrect disposal of the batteries / rechargeable batteries.
Remove the battery pack from the product before disposal. Batteries /rechargeable batteries may
not be disposed of with the usual domestic waste. They may contain toxic heavy metals and are
subject to hazardous waste treatment rules and regulations. Please dispose of batteries according
to the relevant local requirements.

Replacing the battery
While the actual battery life will depend on usage and environmental factors, the typical service
life is several years. Spare batteries are available from customer support. To replace the battery,
please follow the instructions below.
1. Ensure the main power switch is turned OFF. Clean the underside as instructed.
2. Set the Autonomous Mower to the lowest cutting height.
3. Turn the mower upside-down. Remove the 5 screws fixing the battery compartment's lid.
Note one screw is partially covered by the blade protector and is only accessible through a
service hole.
4. Pull out the battery and disconnect it from the Autonomous Mower.
5. Carefully clean the lid and the edge of the battery compartment. Debris may allow excessive
water to enter the battery compartment, causing major damage to the appliance.
6. Connect and insert the replacement battery, close the compartment and fix the lid with 5
screws. Do not turn on the Autonomous Mower before placing it back on its wheels. Beware
of sharp blades!
Cleaning the underside
Ensure the main power switch is in OFF position. Wearing protective gloves, turn the Robotic
Mower onto its side to expose its underside. Clean the blade disc and frame using a soft brush or
damp cloth. Rotate the blade disc to make sure that it can move freely, check that the blades can
turn on their pivots and that there is no grass is obstructing them.

Clean the contact pins and the charging strips
Using wire wool, metal cleaner or very fine grade emery paper, clean the contact pins and the
charging strips on your mower and docking station. Remove any debris, leaves, or grass clippings
around the contact pins and charging strips to ensure efficient charging.
