Symptoms Cause Action
Uneven mowing re-
sults.
The robotic lawnmower works too few hours
per day.
Increase the mowing time. See
Advanced on
page 23
.
The shape of the working area requires the
use of
Area 1-3
for the robotic lawnmower to
find its way to all remote areas.
Use
Area 1-3
to steer the robotic lawnmower
to a remote area. See
Lawn coverage on
page 26
.
The

setting is incorrect in relation
to the layout of the working area.
Check that the correct
How often?
value is
selected.
Working area too large. Try limiting the working area or extending the
working time. See
Advanced on page 23
.
Dull blades. Replace all the blades. See
To replace the
blades on page 39
.
Long grass in relation to the set cutting
height.
Increase the cutting height and then succes-
sively lower it.
Accumulation of grass by the blade disc or
around the motor shaft.
Check that the blade disc rotates freely and
easily. If not, screw off the blade disc and re-
move grass and foreign objects. See

6.6 Find breaks in the loop wire
Breaks in the loop wire are usually the result of
unintentional physical damage to the wire such as when
gardening with a shovel. In countries with ground frost,
also sharp stones that move in the ground can damage
the wire. Breaks can also occur due to the wire being
stretched excessively during installation.
Mowing the grass too low right after the installation can
damage wire insulation. Damage to the insulation may
not cause disruptions until several weeks or months
later. To avoid this, always select the maximum cutting
height the first weeks after installation and then lower
the height one step at a time every second week until
the desired cutting height has been reached.
A defective splicing of the loop wire can also lead to
disruptions several weeks after the splice was done. A
faulty splice can, for example, be the result of the
original coupler not being pressed together hard enough
with a pair of pliers, or that a coupler of lower quality
than the original coupler has been used. Please first
check all known splices before further troubleshooting is
done.
A wire break can be located by gradually halving the
distance of the loop where the break may have occurred
until there is only a very short section of the wire left.
The following method does not work if
ECO mode
is
activated. Make sure first that
ECO mode
is turned off.

1. Check that the indicator lamp in the charging station
flashes blue, which indicates a break in the
boundary loop. See
Indicator lamp in the charging
station on page 45
.
2. Check that the boundary wire connections to the
charging station are properly connected and not
damaged. Check that the indicator lamp in the
charging station is still flashing blue.
