1 Introduction 1.1 Memo Serial number: PIN code: Dealer: Dealer's telephone number: If the robotic lawnmower is stolen, it is important to notify Husqvarna of this. Contact your local Husqvarna representative and provide the robotic lawnmower's serial number so that it can be registered as stolen in an international database. This is an important step in the robotic lawnmower's theft protection, which reduces interest in the buying and selling of stolen robotic lawnmowers. The product's serial number consists of 9 digits and is shown on the product rating plate and packaging. www.husqvarna.com 1.2 Product description Congratulations on your choice of an exceptionally high quality product. To get the best results from your Husqvarna robotic lawnmower requires knowledge of how it works. This Operator's manual contains important information about the robotic lawnmower, how it must be installed and how to use it. As a complement to this Operator's manual, there are information movies with instructions available on Husqvarna's website, www.husqvarna.com. Keep in mind that the operator is responsible for accidents or hazards occuring to other people or their property. Husqvarna has a policy of continuous product development and reserves the right to modify the design, appearance and function of products without prior notice. 1.2.1 Capacity The robotic lawnmower is recommended for lawn sizes up to maximum capacity listed in the Technical data on page 57. How big an area the robotic lawnmower can keep cut depends primarily on the condition of the blades and the type, growth and moisture of the grass. The shape of the lawn is also significant. If the garden mainly consists of open lawn areas, the robotic lawnmower can mow more per hour than if the garden consists of several small lawns separated by trees, flower beds and passages. A fully charged robotic lawnmower mows for 75 to 270 minutes depending on the status of the battery and lawn. Then the robotic lawnmower will charge for 50 to 60 minutes. The charging time can vary depending on factors like the ambient temperature. 1.2.2 Mowing technique The robotic lawnmower's system is based on an efficient and energy saving principle. Unlike many standard lawnmowers, the robotic lawnmower cuts the grass instead of knocking it off. This frequent cutting technique improves the grass quality. No collection of grass is required, and small pieces of cut grass will reduce the need of fertilizers. Furthermore, it is emission free, convenient and your lawn will always look well maintained. 362 - 002 - 06.02.2018 Introduction - 3
