R160LiC
This function allows the robotic
lawnmower to automatically adjust its
mowing times based on how quick the
lawn grows. When the weather is good for
grass growth, the robotic lawnmower
mowes more often and when the grass
growth is slower the robotic lawnmower
will automatically spend less time on the
lawn. See
SensorControl on page 24.

GARDENA smart system enables
wireless interaction between the mower
and other devices in GARDENA smart
system, such as Water Controls and
Sensors. From this menu you can include
or exclude your robotic mower and check
your wireless connection status to smart
system. See
Smart System on page 24.
Security
In this menu, settings relating to security
and the connection between the robotic
lawnmower and the charging station can
be made. There are 3 security levels to
choose from:
Low, Medium, High. See
Security on page 25.
Installation
This menu function is used to customize
the installation. For many working areas
there is no need to alter the factory
settings, but depending on the lawn
complexity the mowing result can be
improved by making manual settings. See
Settings
This selection allows you to make
changes to the general robotic lawnmower
settings such as date and time. See
Settings on page 29.

The lawn should not be cut too often to obtain the best
mowing result. When the robotic lawnmower is allowed
to mow too much, the lawn may appear flattened.
Besides, the robotic lawnmower is subjected to
unnecessary wear. If the working area is less than the
robotic lawnmower's area capacity, the quality of the
grass can be further improved if it is cut every other day
instead of a few hours every day. In addition, the grass
benefits from resting completely during at least a three-
day period once a month.
The timer function is also an ideal way to control which
periods the robotic lawnmower should not mow, for
example, when the children are playing in the garden.
The operating hours and days can been seen in an
overview on the robotic lawnmower’s display. Active
mowing per day is illustrated by a black bar. The rest of
the time, the robotic lawnmower is parked in the
charging station.
The factory timer setting is inactive, which means that
the robotic lawnmower will operate around the clock 7
days a week. This is normally a suitable setting for a
working area corresponding to the maximum capacity,
If the working area is less than maximum capacity then
the timer should be used to minimize wear on grass and
lawnmower. When setting the timer, calculate that the
robotic lawnmower mows about the number of square
meters per hour and day listed in table Work capacity.
See
The table below provides suggestions for different timer
settings depending on the size of the lawn. The times
should be seen as indicative. They may need to be
adjusted to suit the garden and for example grass
quality and growth during the season. Use the table as
follows:
•
Find a work area that closest matches the size of the
lawn.
•
Select an appropriate amount of work days (for
some work areas 7 days may be needed).
