2.8 Rechargeable battery
The rechargeable battery can be changed by the user.
NOTE: Fully charge the rechargeable battery before using it for the first time. The rechargeable battery can be charged in any charge status. Interrupting charging does not damage the rechargeable battery. The rechargeable battery can only be charged after the appliance has been switched on.
The rechargeable battery is partially charged on delivery. The rechargeable battery is regularly recharged during normal operation. The appliance returns to its base station for this. The integrated electronic control unit with a monitoring function terminates the charging procedure when a 100% charge status is reached.
The charging process only functions with perfect contact of the charging contacts on the base station with the contact surfaces of the appliance. The built-in protection circuit prevents the rechargeable battery from being charged at temperatures above 45°C. This prevents irreparable damage to the rechargeable battery. If the operating time of the rechargeable battery becomes shorter despite being fully charged, replace the battery. If the battery charge level has dropped below the threshold set by the manufacturer as a result of ageing or excessively long storage, this means it can no longer be recharged. Have the battery and the monitoring electronic control unit checked by an AL-KO dealer, technician or service partner, and replace them if necessary. The rechargeable battery status is shown on the display. Check the rechargeable battery status after about 3 months in storage. To do so, switch on the appliance and read off the rechargeable battery status. If the rechargeable battery is now only charged to approx. 30% or less, place the appliance in the base station and switch it on so the rechargeable battery is charged. If the charging station was removed to store the base station (see chapter 12.2 "Dismantling and storing the charging pole (18, 19)", page 55), first mount it again in reverse order and connect the base station to the mains supply again. If electrolyte has escaped into the battery compartment: Have the appliance repaired by an AL-KO service centre.
If the rechargeable battery has been removed from the appliance: If the eyes or hands have come into contact with escaped electrolyte, flush them immediately with water. Immediately consult a doctor.
2.9 Functional description
Moving on the grass surface
The appliance moves freely in a mowing area delimited by a boundary cable. The appliance is oriented by means of the sensors that detect the electromagnetic field of the boundary cable.
If the appliance encounters an obstacle, it stops and then continues in another direction. If the appliance gets into a situation where it cannot operate, this is indicated by a message on the display.
If the appliance detects moisture when the rain sensor is switched on, it automatically returns to the base station.
Mowing and charging
The mowing phases alternate constantly with the charging phases. If the charge of the rechargeable battery drops to a specific value (display: 0% ) during mowing, the appliance returns to the base station along the boundary cable.
Mowing programs are preset and can be customised on the appliance or in the app.
Each time the mowing motor is started, its direction of rotation is changed which doubles the service life of the cutting blades.
2.10 WiFi radio module and AL-KO inTOUCH Smart Garden app
The robot lawn mower is equipped with a WiFi radio module. This allows convenient control, setting and monitoring via app from a mobile device (smartphone, tablet, etc.).
NOTE The mobile device being used requires an Internet connection in order to use the AL-KO inTOUCH Smart Garden app.
NOTE In order to ensure that the latest software version is always installed on the robot lawn mower, it must be connected to the Internet via a WiFi network. The AL-KO inTOUCH Smart Garden app notifies you when there are new software updates for the robot lawnmower. They are downloaded automatically.

4 ASSEMBLY
4.1 Unpacking the machine
- Open the packaging carefully.
- Carefully remove all components from the packaging and check for transport damage.
Note: Notify your AL-KO dealer or service partner immediately if any transport damage is discovered.
- Check the scope of supply, see chapter 2.1 "Scope of supply (01)", page 35.
If the appliance is going to be sent on, retain the original packaging and accompanying documents. They will also be required for return shipment.
4.2 Planning the mowing areas (05)
Location of the base station (05/1)
Shortest possible distance to the largest mowing area. Level surface. Protected against direct sunlight and harsh weather conditions. Connection option for power source. Free accessibility to the robot lawn mower.
Routing the boundary cable (05)
The boundary cable must be laid in a continuous loop in a clockwise direction.
Corridors between mowing areas (05/h)
A corridor is a narrow section in the grass surface and can be used to connect two mowing areas.
Main area and secondary area(s) (05)
Main area (05/HF): This is the grass surface on which the base station is located and whose entire surface can be mowed automatically by the appliance. Secondary area (05/NF): If a grass surface cannot be reached by the appliance from the main area, carry the appliance to the secondary area by hand if necessary. Secondary areas can be processed using manual operation.
The main area and secondary areas are bounded by the same continuous boundary cable, however.
Location of start points (05/X0 - 05/X3)
At the specified mowing time, the appliance moves along the boundary cable to the specified start point and begins to mow there.
The start points can be used to specify which areas of the mowing area are to be mowed several times.
4.3 Preparing the mowing areas
- Check that the grass surface is larger than the area covered by the appliance. If the grass surface is too large, an irregularly mown lawn will result. Reduce the size of the grass surface to be mowed if necessary.
- Before installation of the base station and boundary cable or start-up of the appliance: Use a lawn mower to mow the grass surface to a low cutting height.
- Remove any obstacles on the grass surface or exclude them with the boundary cable (see chapter 4.5.3 "Excluding obstacles", page 43):
Flat obstacles that will be run over and could damage the cutting blade (e.g. flat stones, transitions from the grass surface to the terrace or paths, plates, kerbs, stones, etc.) Holes and protrusions in the grass surface (e.g. molehills, burrowing holes, pine cones, fallen fruit, etc.) - Steep upward or downward slopes that are larger than the values specified in the technical data - Bodies of water (e.g. ponds, streams, swimming pools, etc.) and their demarcation to the grass surface Shrubs and hedges that can become broader
4.4 Setting up the base station (07/a, 17)
- Place the base station (05/1) at right angles to the planned location of the boundary cable as described below:
Level (check with spirit level) Straight and level entrance and exit Not arched (the charging pole must not bend or tilt during subsequent tightening of the ground screws)
- Fix the base station (07/2) to the ground with four ground screws (07/1).
The base station can also be located outside the lawn area (17). In this case the boundary cable has to be routed as shown in the figure.
4.5 Installing the boundary cable
NOTE If the supplied boundary cable delivered with the model is too short, an extension cable can be obtained from your AL-KO dealer or service partner.
4.5.1 Connecting the boundary cable to the base station (07/b)
- Pull the boundary cable (07/4) out of the packaging.
- Remove the cover of the cable shaft (07/3) on the connection (07/A).
- Insulate the end of the boundary cable (07/6) and insert it into the terminal (07/7).
- Close the terminal.
- Lead the boundary cable through the strain relief (07/5) out of the cable shaft with cable reserve.
NOTE: The cable reserve allows smaller corrections to be carried out on the cable guide later.
- Place the cover on the cable shaft.
4.5.2 Routing the boundary cable (05)
The boundary cable can be laid on the lawn and as much as 10 cm under the turf. The laying under the turf can be carried out by the dealer.
Both variants can be combined with one another.
IMPORTANT! Danger of damaging the boundary cable. If the boundary cable is damaged or cut, the transmission of the control signals to the appliance is no longer possible. In this case, the boundary cable must be repaired or replaced. The boundary cables are available from AL-KO.
Always route the boundary cable directly on the ground. If necessary, secure with an additional lawn peg. - When laying the boundary cable and during operation, protect the boundary cable from damage. Do not dig or scarify in the vicinity of the boundary cable. 1. Attach the boundary cable at regular intervals with lawn pegs or route it underground (at a max. depth of 10 cm).
- Route the boundary cable around obstacles: see chapter 4.5.3 "Excluding obstacles", page 43.
- Create corridors between individual mowing areas: see chapter 4.5.4 "Enclosing corridors (05/h)", page 43.
- Exclude excessive upward or downward slopes: see chapter 4.5.5 "Excluding downward slopes (15)", page 43.
- Create loops of cable: see chapter 4.5.6 "Creating loops of cable (11)", page 43.
- After completing the routing of the boundary cable, connect to the connector (07/B) of the base station: see chapter 4.5.1 "Connecting the boundary cable to the base station (07/b)", page 42.
4.5.3 Excluding obstacles
Depending on the surroundings of the working area, the boundary cable must be routed at different distances from obstacles. Use the ruler that can be removed from the packaging to determine the correct distance.
NOTE: Exclusions are only necessary if they cannot be detected by the bump sensors of the appliance. Avoid too many or unnecessary exclusions. Recesses that are smaller than 6 cm must be excluded, otherwise the appliance may cause damage.
Distance from walls, fences, beds: min. 20 cm (05)
The appliance moves along the boundary cable with an offset of 20 cm to the outside. Therefore, route the boundary cable at a distance of at least 20 cm from walls, fences, beds, etc.
Distance from terrace edges and paved paths (09)
If the terrace or path edge is higher than the grass surface, a distance of at least 20 cm must be complied with. If the edge of the terrace or path is at the same height as the grass surface, the cable can be routed exactly along the edge.
Distance of obstacles from the boundary cable (05)
If the boundary cables are precisely folded up away from the obstacle or towards the obstacle, i.e. distance 0 cm, the appliance moves beyond the boundary cable. Do not cross the boundary cables (06/c), but lay them parallel (05/e).
Routing the boundary cable around corners (05, 10)
For inwards going corners (10/a): Route the boundary cable diagonally to avoid the appliance becoming caught in the corner. For outside corners with obstacles (10/b): Route the boundary cable in a point in order to avoid a collision of the appliance with the corner. For outside corners without obstacles (05/j): Route the boundary cable at an angle of 90°.
4.5.4 Enclosing corridors (05/h)
In the corridor the following distances must be complied with:
Total width: min. 60 cm. Distance of the boundary cable to the edge: 20 cm. Distance between the boundary cables: min. 20 cm.
4.5.5 Excluding downward slopes (15)
Downward slopes that are greater than the values specified in the technical data must be excluded with the boundary cable (45% = 45 cm downward slopes per 1 m horizontally) (see technical data).
The boundary cable must not be laid over a gradient of more than 20%. In order to avoid problems when turning, maintain a distance of 50 cm to the 20% gradient. If the gradient at the outer edge of the working area is more than 20% at any point, lay the boundary cable on the flat ground at a distance of 20 cm from the start of the gradient.
4.5.6 Creating loops of cable (11)
Spare loops of cable should be incorporated at regular intervals in order to reposition the base station or to extend the mowing area even after the mowing area has been laid out.
Select the number of spare cable loops according to your own judgement.
- Lead the boundary cable around the current lawn peg (11/1) and then back to the previous lawn peg (11/3).
- Then lead the boundary cable to the current lawn peg again. This creates a loop. The cables must be close together.
- If necessary, attach the loop to the ground in the middle with an additional lawn peg (11/2).
4.5.7 Typical faults in cable routing (06)
- Spare cable loops of the boundary cable are not laid in an even, elongated loop (06/a). The boundary cable is not routed properly around corners (06/b). The boundary cable is crossed over or not routed clockwise (06/c). The boundary cable is routed too imprecisely so that edge areas of the grass surface cannot be mowed (06/d). The boundary cable is not routed lying directly next to itself when guided towards and back from the edge to an obstacle inside the lawn (06/e). The start points are set too far away from the base station (06/f). The boundary cable is routed beyond the edge of the grass surface (06/g).
- When routing the boundary cable, the minimum distance for corridors of 20 cm is undercut (06/h). The boundary cable is routed too close (i.e. at a distance of less than 20 cm) to obstacles that cannot be driven over (06/i).
4.6 Connecting the base station to the power source (08)
- Place the power supply unit (08/1) in a dry location that is protected against direct sunlight and sufficiently close to the base station (08/2).
- Screw cable (08/3) firmly onto the power supply unit.
- Plug the mains plug (08/4) of the power supply unit into a power socket (08/5) protected from rain.
NOTE: We recommend connecting the power supply to the mains supply via an earth leakage circuit breaker (ELCB) with a rated leakage current < 30 mA.
4.7 Checking the connections on the base station (08)
- Check whether the LED on the front side of the charging station (13/1) is lit. If not:
Disconnect the mains plug. - Check that all plug connectors of the power source and the boundary cable are positioned correctly and check for damage.

9 MAINTENANCE AND CARE
CAUTION! Risk of injury. Sharp-edged and moving appliance parts can lead to injury.
Always wear protective gloves during maintenance, care and cleaning work!
9.1 Cleaning
IMPORTANT! Danger from water. Water in the automatic lawn mower and in the base station leads to damage on electrical components.
- Do not spray the automatic lawn mower and base station with water.
Clean the automatic lawn mower
CAUTION! Danger of injury due to the
cutting blade. The cutting blades are very sharp and can cause cutting injuries.
Wear protective gloves. Make sure that parts of the body do not get into the cutting blade.
Once a week, carry out the following:
- Switch off the appliance with
- Wipe off the surface of the housing with a broom, a brush, a damp cloth or a fine sponge.
- Brush off the underside, mower deck and cutting blade with a brush.
- Check the cutting blade for damage. If necessary, replace the following: see chapter 9.3 "Replacing the cutting blades", page 50.
Cleaning the base station
- Regularly remove grass residues and leaves or other objects out of the base station.
- Wipe off the surface of the base station with a damp cloth or a fine sponge.
9.2 Regular checks
General check
- Once a week, check the whole installation for damage:
Device Base station
Boundary cable Power supply unit
- Replace defective parts with original spare parts from the manufacturer or have them replaced by one of the manufacturer's service centres.
Check the rollers can move freely
Once a week, carry out the following:
- Carefully remove grass residues and soiling from the areas around the rollers using a hand brush and cloth.
- Check that the rollers run freely and that they can be steered.
Note: If the rollers do not move freely or cannot be steered, have them replaced by one of the manufacturer's service centres.
- Use a cloth to remove soiling and then lightly grease with contact grease.
- Disconnect the mains plug.
- Press the charging contacts in the direction of the base station and release them. The charging contacts must spring back into the initial position.
Note: If the charging contacts do not spring back, have them replaced by one of the manufacturer's service centres.
9.3 Replacing the cutting blades
CAUTION! Danger of injury due to the cutting blade. The cutting blades are very sharp and can cause cutting injuries.
Wear protective gloves. Make sure that parts of the body do not get into the cutting blade.
IMPORTANT! Damage to the appliance due to incorrect repair. The blade plate can be damaged by the alignment of a bent, built-in cutting blade.
Do not straighten bent cutting blades. Replace bent cutting blades with original spare parts from the manufacturer.
Worn or bent cutting blades must be replaced.
- Switch off the appliance with
- Set down the appliance with the cutting blades facing upwards.
- Unscrew the fastening screws.
- Take the cutting blade out of the blade seat.
- Clean the blade seat with a soft brush.
Note: The cutting blades are sharpened over the entire length and can therefore also be mounted rotated by 180°, which doubles their service life.
- Replacing the cutting blades:
If the cutting blades have not been rotated since the initial mounting: Rotate the cutting blades by 180° and insert them into the blade seat again with the sharpened side pointing towards the appliance, and tighten the fastening screws again by hand. If the cutting blades have already been rotated once since the initial mounting: Insert new cutting blades into the blade seat with the sharpened side pointing towards the appliance, and tighten the new fastening screws by hand.
Note: Only original spare parts from the manufacturer may be used.
In case of stubborn dirt that cannot be removed with a brush, the blade plate must be replaced because an imbalance can lead to higher noise levels, increased wear, and malfunctions.
As a rule, the clearer blades do not need to be replaced.

- Depending on the model (see Technical Data)
2.8 Battery
The device can be operated with a battery.
NOTE: Before first use, charge
the battery. The battery can be purchased at any level of charge. Discharging does not damage the battery. The battery can only be charged when the device is switched on.
The battery is fully charged at delivery. In normal operation, the battery is regularly charged. For this purpose, the device is placed in the base station. The integrated electronics for monitoring automatically stop charging when the charging status of 100% is reached. The charging process functions only if the contacts for charging the base station are in uninterrupted contact with the good surfaces of the device. At temperatures above 45 °C, the built-in protection circuit prevents charging of the battery. In this way, the battery is protected from damage. If the battery operating time is significantly reduced despite maximum charging, only the battery should be replaced. If the battery, due to aging or a defective storage, is discharged below the limit specified by the manufacturer, it can no longer be charged. Check the battery and the monitoring electronics at the distributor, technician, or service partner of the company AL-KO and replace them if necessary. The battery status is shown on the display. Check the battery status after about 3 months of storage. For this purpose, switch on the device and read the battery status. If the battery is only about 30% charged, place the device in the base station and leave it there to charge the battery. If the storage for the device is removed from the base station (see Chapter 12.2 "Removal and storage of the device (18, 19)," page 203), first remount it in reverse order and then connect the base station to the power supply. If there is a short circuit in the battery circuit: Take the device to the AL-KO service workshop! If the battery is removed from the device: If the contacts have come into contact with
Electric shock, do not touch with water. Do not immerse in water!
2.9 Description of operation
Movement on grassy surfaces
The device moves freely over the area defined by the boundary cable.
Orientation of the device is performed via sensors that detect the electromagnetic field of the boundary cable.
If the device hits an obstacle, it stops and continues in another direction. If the device gets into a situation where work is not possible, a message is shown on the display.
If the device, with the loop sensor enabled, recognizes the charging station, it automatically returns to the base station.
Mowing mode and charging mode
Mowing phases constantly alternate with charging phases. If the battery charge level drops to a certain value during mowing (e.g., 0%), the device returns to the base station at the boundary wire.
The mowing programs are pre-set and can be additionally adjusted on the device or in the app.
Every time the mower motor is started, the direction of rotation changes, which doubles the service life of the blades.
2.10 Module that connects via WiFi - Smart application AL-KO inTOUCH Smart Garden
The robotic mower is equipped with a module that connects via WiFi. This module enables easy control, monitoring, and adjustment via an application on a mobile device (smartphone, tablet).
NOTE for use: To use the mobile device via the AL-KO inTOUCH Smart Garden application, an internet connection is required.
NOTE: To ensure that the software for the robotic mower is always updated to the latest version, it must be connected to the internet via a WiFi network. The AL-KO inTOUCH Smart Garden application notifies when new versions of the software for the robotic mower are available. They are automatically downloaded from the internet.

SAFETY
3.1 Intended use
This device is intended exclusively for private use. Any other use, as well as unauthorized modifications or extensions, is considered improper use and leads to the loss of the warranty, the loss of conformity with regulations, and the manufacturer disclaims all liability for damage to the user or third parties.
The following are not covered by the device: See technical data
3.2 Possible improper use
This device for grass is not suitable for use in public facilities, parks, sports grounds, or in agriculture or forestry.
3.3 Safety and protective devices
WARNING! Danger of injury.
Improper repair and deactivation of safety devices can lead to serious injuries.
Have faulty safety devices repaired. Never deactivate safety devices.
3.3.1 Entering the PIN and PUK
The device can only be operated by entering the PIN (Personal Identification Number). This prevents unauthorized persons from using it. The factory default for the PIN is 0000. The PIN can be changed, see Section 5.2
"Changing basic settings", page 191.
If the PIN is entered incorrectly three times, the PUK (Personal Unlocking Key) must be entered. If this is entered incorrectly, you must wait 24 hours before the next entry.
Keep the PIN and PUK so that unauthorized persons do not have access to them.
3.3.2 Sensors
The device is equipped with several safety sensors. It can only be restarted automatically after a shutdown using a safety sensor. The error message is displayed on the display and must be confirmed. The cause of the sensor triggering must be eliminated.
Tilt sensor
If the device tilts during operation on a slope, the drive motor switches off and the blades for cutting stop.
Impact sensors for obstacle detection
The device is equipped with sensors that, when they come into contact with obstacles, ensure a change in the direction of movement. When it hits an obstacle, the upper part of the housing tilts slightly and the impact sensor is activated.
Sensor for bending in the direction of travel/floor
If the movement direction reaches the condition for the limit switch or the bumper switch, which is greater than what is set for that model, turn the device around or change the direction of movement.
Limit switch sensor
The movement is determined by the limit switch sensor, which in the activated state detects the boundary wire and sends the movement signal to the base station (see technical data).
Frost sensor
The movement is determined by the frost sensor, which at low temperatures sends a command to the device or sends a command to the AL-KO inTOUCH Smart Garden app (see technical data). The temperature for the command can be set.

At ground level (check with a spirit level), screw the base station to the ground using the screws provided. Make sure that they do not bend or deform.
2.3 Place the base station (07/2) with the four-way screw (07/1) to the ground.
The base station can also be placed outside the radio range (17). The limiting cable must be laid as shown in the figure.
4.5 Installation of the limiting cable
NOTE: If the limiting cable from the delivery kit is too short, you can purchase an extension cable from the dealer or AL-KO service partner.
4.5.1 Laying the limiting cable to the base station (07/b)
- Remove the limiting cable (07/4) from the packaging.
- Remove the rubber grommet (07/3) from the connector (07/A).
- Remove the insulation from the end of the limiting cable (07/6) and insert it into the terminal (07/7).
- Close the terminal.
- Guide the limiting cable through the cable duct (07/5) and then through the cable duct opening.
NOTE: The cable reserve can be used for subsequent minor corrections in the cable layout.
- Install the rubber grommet of the cable duct.
4.5.2 Laying the limiting cable (05)
The limiting cable can be installed on the ground or at a distance of up to 10 cm below the turf. Installation below the turf must be carried out by a specialist.
Both variants can be combined.
WARNING! Check the boundary cable for damage. If the boundary cable is damaged or broken, the device will no longer be able to receive control signals. In this case, the boundary cable must be repaired or replaced. The boundary cable is available from AL-KO.
Always lay the boundary cable directly on the ground. If necessary, ensure safety with additional cable clips for securing the boundary cable. Protect the boundary cable from damage during installation and operation. Do not dig or perform vertical work near the boundary cable.
- Secure the boundary cable at regular intervals using cable clips for securing the boundary cable in the ground (maximum 10 cm). 2. Lay the boundary cable around obstacles: see section 4.5.3 "Insulating obstacles", page 406.
- Create passages between individual surfaces to be mowed: see section 4.5.4 "Narrowing passages (05/h)", page 407.
- To avoid large loops or bends: see section 4.5.5 "Avoiding loops (15)", page 407. 5. Lay cable slack: see section 4.5.6 "Laying cable slack (11)", page 407. 6. After completing the installation, connect the boundary cable to the base station terminal (07/B): see section 4.5.1 "Connecting the boundary cable to the base station (07/b)", page 405.
4.5.3 Insulating obstacles
Depending on the surrounding environment in the working area, the boundary cable must be laid at different distances from obstacles. To determine the correct distance, use the template included in the packaging.
Exceptions are only necessary if they cannot be detected by the collision sensors of the device. Avoid too many exceptions for unnecessary exceptions. Bumps smaller than 6 cm must be insulated, otherwise the device may cause damage.
Distance to walls, fences, flower beds: min. 20 cm (05)
The device moves with a lateral offset of 20 cm along the boundary cable. Therefore, lay the boundary cable at a distance of no less than 20 cm from walls, fences, flower beds, and similar.
Distance to edges of terraces and paved paths (09)
If the terrace or the distance from the edge to the lawn is higher, a distance of no less than 20 cm must be ensured. If the terrace or edge is at the same height as the lawn, the cable can be laid exactly at the edge.
Distance between boundary cable and obstacle M (05)
If the boundary cable is laid directly next to obstacles or on them, i.e., at a distance of 0 cm, the device will drive over the boundary cable. Do not cross the boundary cable (06/c), but lay it parallel (05/e).
Laying the boundary cable in curves (05,10)
For inside corners (10/a): Lay the boundary cable diagonally to avoid movement of the device. For outside corners with obstacles (10/b): Lay the boundary cable with a sharp bend to avoid collision of the device with the corner. For outside corners without obstacles (05/j): Lay the boundary cable at a 90° angle.
4.5.4 Narrow passages (05/h)
Observe the following distances in passages:
60 cm Distance from boundary cable to edge: 20 cm Distance between boundary cables: min. 20 cm
4.5.5 Excluding slopes (15)
Slopes exceeding those specified in the technical data must be excluded with the boundary cable (45% = 45 cm rise per 1 m horizontally (see technical specifications)).
The boundary cable must not be laid on a slope with an incline greater than 20%. To avoid problems at turns, maintain a distance of 50 cm up to 20% incline. If the incline at the outer edge of the working area exceeds 20% at one point, the boundary cable must be laid at a distance of 20 cm from the level surface to the start of the slope.
4.5.6 Laying cable slack (11)
To allow repositioning of the base station or expansion of the mowing area after installation, regularly lay cable slack in the boundary cable.
The amount of cable slack can be set at your own discretion.
Avoid open loops in case of cable slack.
1. Lay the boundary cable around the current fixator for securing the boundary cable (11/1), then return to the previous fixator for securing the boundary cable (11/3). 2. Then lay the boundary cable back in the direction of the current fixator for securing the boundary cable. This creates a loop. The cable should lie flat. 3. If necessary, correct the loop in the middle with an additional fixator for securing the boundary cable (11/2) on the ground.
4.5.7 Typical errors when laying cables (06)
Cable slack not installed in an evenly extended loop (06/a). Boundary cable not installed correctly around corners (06/b). Boundary cable crosses itself or is not laid in the direction of the clock (06/c). Boundary cable installed too unevenly for the mowing zone (06/d). At transitions from edge to obstacle on the lawn, the boundary cable is not laid directly next to the obstacle (06/e). Starting points installed too far from the base station (06/f). Boundary cable laid beyond the edge of the lawn (06/g). When laying the boundary cable, the minimum distance for passages of 20 cm is exceeded (06/h). Boundary cable is too close, i.e., at a distance of less than 20 cm, to obstacles that can be driven over (06/i).
4.6 Connecting the base station to the power supply (08)
- Place the power supply unit (08/1) in a dry place away from direct sunlight, sufficiently close to the base station (08/2). 2. Tightly screw the cable (08/3) to the power supply unit.
- Insert the plug (08/4) of the power supply unit into the socket (08/5).
NOTE: We recommend connecting the power supply unit to the electrical network through a residual current device that trips at a nominal leakage current < 30 mA.

2.8 Battery
Battery replacement.
NOTE: The battery is fully charged before first use. The battery can be charged at any charge level. Interrupting charging does not affect the battery condition. The battery can be charged only when the device is switched on.
The battery is included in the delivery set. Under normal operation, the battery is charged automatically. When the device is placed on the base station, the built-in smart electronics automatically starts the charging process until the charge level reaches 100%. The charging process occurs only when the charging contacts of the base station are in perfect contact with the contact surfaces of the device. At temperatures above 45 °C, the built-in protection circuit prevents charging of the battery. This prevents movement of the battery. If the battery is deeply discharged, despite a full charge, the battery must be replaced independently. If the battery is discharged below the manufacturer's specification due to age or long storage, it cannot be recharged.
Have the battery and the smart electronics checked by qualified technicians or an AL-KO service partner and replace them if necessary.
The battery status is shown on the display. Check the battery status after prolonged storage. To do this, switch on the device and read the battery status. If the battery is charged to approximately 30% or less, place the device in the base station and switch it on to charge the battery. If the charging station has been removed from the base station (see section 12.2 "Removing and storing the charging station (18, 19), page 446), insert it in reverse order and plug it into the base station again. If the battery is damaged, contact the AL-KO service center for repair! If the battery is removed from the device: If hands have come into contact with the battery acid, rinse them immediately with water. Contact a doctor immediately!
2.9 Description of functions
Lawn mower
The device moves freely within the mowing area, which is defined by the boundary cable. The device is oriented with the help of sensors that detect the magnetic field of the boundary cable.
If the device encounters an obstacle, it stops and tries to move in another direction. If the device gets into a situation where the operating mechanism is blocked, a message appears on the display.
If the device detects water with the rain sensor, it automatically returns to the base station.
Operation in charging mode
The charging process is identical to the charging stages. When the battery reaches a certain value during mowing (indicator: 0%), the device returns to the base station along the boundary cable. The mowing programs previously set can be adjusted on the device or via the app.
At each start of the mower motor, the direction of rotation changes, which extends the service life of the blades.
2.10 Troubleshooting and AL-KO inTOUCH Smart Garden support
