The factory settings allow the robotic lawnmower to
follow the guide wire 300 m in 20% of the times it leaves
the charging station. If the guide wire in reality is less
than 300 m the robotic lawnmower will follow it to the
point where the guide wire is connected to the boundary
wire.
3.16.1.1 Area 1, 2 or 3 > How?
The robotic lawnmower uses the Guide to reach Area 1,
2 or 3. If all areas will be used it is therefore important to
consider the optimal placement of the charging station.
The Guide needs to pass all areas but at the same time
not exceed maximum length of guide wire.
3.16.1.2 Area 1, 2 or 3 > How far?
Enter the distance in metres along the current wire from
the charging station to the remote area where the
robotic lawnmower begins mowing.
Use the right and left arrow keys to alternate between
the different options.
Tip! Use the
Test function (Area 1, 2 or 3 > More >
Test ) to determine how far it is to the remote area. The
distance, stated in metres, will be shown in the
lawnmower display when STOP has been pressed. See
How to measure the distance to a remote area on page
28. The measured distance shown in the display can
be saved directly to the selected remote area. Any
current value will be overidden by the new measured
distance.

3.16.1.3 Area 1, 2 or 3 > How often?
How often the robotic lawnmower must be steered to the
remote area is selected as a proportion of the total
number of times it leaves the charging station. At all
other times, the robotic lawnmower starts to mow at the
charging station.
Select the percentage that corresponds to the size of the
remote area relative to the total working area. If the
remote area is for instance half of the total working area,
50% must be selected. A lower figure must be specified
if the remote area is smaller. If more areas are used,
take into account that the total figure cannot exceed
100%.
Compare with the examples in
page 33.
Use the number keys to specify share as a percentage.

3.16.1.4 Area 1, 2 or 3 > Disable
Each area can be disabled and enabled without having
to reenter the settings. Select
Disable and press OK.
3.16.1.5 Area 1, 2 or 3 > More > Test
Testing selected settings can be seen as a natural part
of the installation.
Using the
Test function, the robotic lawnmower travels
the farthest distance from the guide wire allowed by the
selected corridor width.
3.16.1.6 Test: Area 1, 2 or 3
To test the selected settings:
1. Place the robotic lawnmower in the charging station.
2. Use the down and the right/left arrow keys to select
the area to be tested from the
Lawn coverage
overview screen. Press OK.
3. Select
More and press OK.
4. Select
Test and press OK.
5. Press START and close the hatch.
6. The robotic lawnmower will now leave the charging
station and begin following the guide wire toward the
remote area. Check that the robotic lawnmower can
follow the guide wire all along the required distance.
7. The test is approved when the robotic lawnmower
can follow the guide wire to the required starting
point without any problem.
