Battery life is dependent on the length of the season and how many hours a day the robotic lawnmower is used. A long season or many hours of use a day means that the battery must be replaced more regularly. WARNING: Only charge the robotic lawnmower using a charging station which is intended for it. Incorrect use may result in electric shock, overheating or leakage of corrosive liquid from the battery. In the event of leakage of electrolyte flush with water and seek medical help if it comes in contact with the eyes etc. CAUTION: The battery must be charged fully before winter storage. If the battery is not fully charged it can be damaged and in certain cases be rendered useless. If the operating times for the robotic lawnmower are shorter than normal between charges, this indicates that the battery is getting old and eventually needs replacing. The battery is fine as long as the robotic lawnmower maintains a well-cut lawn. Contact your local Husqvarna representative to replace the battery. 5.5 Winter service Take your robotic lawnmower to a local Husqvarna representative for service prior to winter storage. Regular winter service will maintain the robotic lawnmower in good condition and create the best conditions for a new season without any disruptions. Service usually includes the following: • Thorough cleaning of the body, the chassis, the blade disc and all other moving parts. • Testing of the mower's function and components. • Checking and if required replacement of wear items such as blades and bearings. • Testing the mower's battery capacity as well as a recommendation to replace battery if necessary. • If necessary the local Husqvarna representative can also update the robotic lawnmower with new software, including new features where applicable. WARNING: Use only original batteries recommended by the manufacturer. Product safety cannot be guaranteed with other 48 - Maintenance 236 - 001 - 02.10.2017
