11 STORAGE
11.1 Storing the automatic lawn mower
The appliance must be stored over winter or
when it is to be taken out of service for an ex-
pected duration of longer than 30 days.
1. Fully charge the rechargeable battery (see
chapter 5.1 "Charging the rechargeable bat-
tery (09)", page 57).
2. Thoroughly clean the appliance (see chapter
9.1 "Cleaning", page 63).
3. Store the appliance:
■
upright on all wheels
■
at a dry, lockable location protected from
frost
■
out of the reach of children
11.2 Storing the base station
The base station can, but does not have to be put
into storage. However, the storage prevents pre-
mature ageing, such as fading of the colour, cor-
rosion of the charging contacts and the spring
force terminals.
If the base station remains outdoors:
1. Remove the low-voltage cable from the trans-
former and roll together.
2. Put the transformer into storage.
3. Grease the charging contacts with contact
grease.
When the base station is to be put into
storage:
1. First, carry out all work mentioned above.
2. Disconnect the base station from the bound-
ary cable.
3. Remove the base station and remove any
soiling with a broom and a slightly damp
cloth.
4. Store the base station:
■
at a dry, lockable location protected from
frost
■
out of the reach of children
11.3 Winter storage of the boundary cable
The boundary cable can remain in the ground
and does not need to be removed.
1. When the base station has been put into stor-
age: Grease the stripped cable ends with
contact grease and wrap with adhesive tape.
This protects the cable ends against corro-
sion.
