  This indicates the battery is experiencing over or under temperature issues, possibly due to unsuitable environmental or demanding work conditions. Turn off the machine, wait for at least 5 minutes, and then restart it. Also, ensure you are working in an environment with a temperature appropriate for the machine's operating conditions. Reduce forward speed and increase the cutting height.

  If the icon fig. 12.E stays on and the battery LEDs 4 and 5 flash on your Stiga Lawn Mower, it indicates a current overload on the cutting means due to heavy working conditions. Try reducing the travel speed or increasing the cutting height. It could also be due to obstructions hindering the rotation of the cutting means, in which case you should remove the obstructions. Another cause might be the cutting-means assembly being full of grass; clean the cutting-means assembly in this case.

  If the icon fig. 12.E stays on and the battery LEDs 2 and 5 flash, it indicates a current overload from the battery. This could be due to excessive working conditions or a slope that is too steep. Reduce the travel speed and check the gradient of the terrain you are working on.

  If the icon fig. 12.E stays on and the battery LEDs 1, 2 and 4 flash (or icons fig. 12.E and fig. 12.N stay on and the battery LEDs 1, 2 and 4 flash), it indicates overheating of the drive motor. This can be due to the drive motor being under strain, a slope that is too steep, or excessive mud on the wheels. Reduce the travel speed, check the gradient of the slope, and ensure the wheels are not blocked and clean them if necessary.

  When icons 13.E and 13.O remain ON and battery LEDs 1, 2, and 4 flash, it indicates the drive motor is over-temperature or under stress. This can be due to a steep slope or excessive mud on the wheels. Switch off the machine and wait for at least 5 minutes before repeating the starting procedure. Reduce forward speed and check the slope of the ground where you are working. Also, ensure the wheels are not blocked and clean them if needed.
