6. MENU FUNCTIONS
6.3 Timer
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 robotic lawnmower's
working capacity. When the robotic lawnmower is
allowed to mow too much, the lawn may appear
flattened. Besides, the robotic lawnmower is
subjected to unnecessary wear.
The timer function is also an ideal means to control
which work hours the robotic lawnmower should not
mow, for example, when the children are playing in
the garden.
The factory setting is 07:00 - 23:00 (07:00-22:00 for
GARDENA R38Li, R40Li, R45Li, R50Li) and it allows
mowing every day of the week. This setting is suitable
for the listed maximum working area.
When setting the timer, calculate that the robotic
lawnmower mows about the listed amount of the
number of square meters per hour and day listed in
table Work capacity.
The table below provides suggestions for different
timer settings depending on garden size. The table can
be used to set the operating time. The times should be
seen as indicative, they may need to be adjusted to
suit the garden. Use the table as follows:
1.Find a work area that closest matches the garden's
area.
2.Select an appropriate amount of work days per week
(for some work areas 7 days may be needed).
3.Work hours per day shows how many hours a day
the robotic lawnmower will be allowed to work for the
selected amount of work days.
4.Suggested time interval shows a time interval that
corresponds to the required work hours per day.
