Temperature Control Indicator
The red LED signals that the battery or the electronics of the
garden product (with battery inserted) are not within the op-
timum temperature range. When this occurs the garden prod-
uct will not operate or not at full capacity.
Temperature Control of the Battery
The red LED flashes when you press the button or the On/Off
switch (with battery inserted): The battery is outside of the
permitted operating temperature range.
The battery switches off at a temperature above 70 °C until
the optimum temperature range is reached again.
Temperature Control of the Garden Product Elec-
tronics
The red LED lights up continuously when pressing the
On/Off switch : The temperature of the garden product elec-
tronics is below 5 °C or above 75 °C.
At a temperature above 90 °C, the electronics of the garden
product switch off until the temperature is within the allowa-
ble temperature range again.

Area of Cut (Battery Duration)
The area of cut (battery duration) depends on lawn condi-
tions, grass density, mositure content, grass length and
height of cut.
Switching the machine on and off frequently during cutting
will also reduce the area of cut (battery duration).
To improve the area of cut (battery duration) it is recommend-
ed to cut more frequently, raise the cutting height and walk at
a normal pace.
The example below shows impact of conditions against run
time, when using the machine with two batteries.
