The factory settings for the timer allow the robotic lawnmower to operate around the clock 7 days a week. 4.8 Charge a flat battery When the Husqvarna robotic lawnmower is new or has been stored for a long period, the battery will be flat and needs to be charged before starting. 236 - 001 - 02.10.2017 Operation - 45
