18 Automower from
1. Function
™
Should the Automower hit an obstacle when following
the boundary wire it passes this by making one or
more turns around the obstacle.
Depending on the placement of the charging station,
the Automower may be forced to leave the F-field to
reach the charging station. The mower then follows
the boundary wire out of the F-field. First it runs
10
metres from the F-field in one direction before it
turns and follows the boundary wire 20
metres from
the F-field in the other direction. Should the
Automower then not reach the F-field, it turns for a
third time and follows the boundary wire in the first
direction until it reaches the charging station.
1.11 Docking and charging
When the battery level becomes too low, the
Automower switches off the blade motor and starts to
search for the charging station. When the mower
receives the N-signal and enters the charging station,
this is called docking.
When the charging strips on the Automower make
contact with the contact strips on the charging station,
the mower stops and charging begins. The message
Charging is shown on the display.
A fault message is displayed when docking fails or
when charging does not work correctly, see table
6.
Table 6: Docking error
Fault message Cause of fault message Action/Check
As a first step in trouble shooting always check that the charging station is receiving power.
Charging station blocked Automower has collided with an obstacle
in the N-field.
Is anything blocking the N-field?
The charging station may need to be moved.
The charging plate (N-coil) is defective. Check the N-signal from the charging station: Place the
Automower in the test position and then check the value
via the Quick check function (Press and hold the
0 key
down for 2
seconds). The N-coil is defective if the value
for N is lower than
100. The charging plate must be
replaced.
The contact between the charging strips
and contact strips is poor and the
Automower has made a number of
charging attempts.
Check that the contact strips on the charging station are
not jammed. Round off the charging strips on the
Automower if necessary using emery cloth and lubricate
with copper paste. Also test the charging current with the
help of the Quick check function (press and hold the
0
key down for 2 seconds). The current (I) should be at
least 1.6
A.
