Operation Selection - Husqvarna AUTOMOWER 305 Operator's Manual

5.1 Operation selection

The operation selection button is symbolised by a
house. When the button has been pressed, the
selected operation mode is shown in the display. By
consecutively pressing the button many times, one can
choose between three different operation modes.
1. HOME:
Sends the robotic lawnmower to the charging
station. It remains here until another operation
mode is selected. The text Home is shown in the
operation window. When the battery is fully
charged, the robotic lawnmower will remain
parked in the charging station. The robotic
lawnmower will first leave the charging station and
begin mowing again when the operation selection
is altered to AUTO.
The Home setting is also used after a new
installation or when changes are made to an
existing installation to test if the robotic
lawnmower can follow the guide wire and dock
with the charging station. See 3.9 Test docking
with the charging station on page 34.
2. AUTO:
The standard, automatic operation mode where
the robotic lawnmower mows and charges
automatically.
3. MAN:
When mowing secondary areas (see
3.4 Installation of the boundary wire on page 22)
the MAN setting must be used.
If MAN is selected and the robotic lawnmower
starts when it is out on the lawn, it will mow until
the battery runs out. It will then stop and the
'Needs manual charging' message will appear.
The robotic lawnmower must then be moved
manually to the charging station and then started
manually after charging.
If the robotic lawnmower charges in the MAN
mode, it will fully charge, move about 20 cm out of
the charging station and then stop. This indicates
that it is charged and ready to start mowing.
If the main working area has to be cut after
charging, it is appropriate to switch the operation
mode to Auto before placing the robotic
lawnmower in the charging station.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Always press the START button before
closing the cover to start the robotic
lawnmower. If the START button is not
pressed, a message beep is heard and the
robotic lawnmower will not start.
