3.4 Scanning (Mowing)
Keep in mind that the Robomower will not mow all the grass on its first pass, in fact it will leave
uncut grass in between many of the legs it makes. This is expected and is entirely normal.
These uncut areas will be cut on subsequent passes of the Robomower across the lawn. Just
like a dishwasher, wait until the job is finished before you can appreciate the results. The
Robomower will continue to run for the amount of time selected or for the default 'MAX' time,
which is generally 2.5 to 3.5 hours, depending on grass type and condition. (RL550 Europe 2
hours) See Chapter 6, Operator Settinqs and Advanced Features for more detail on setting
operating time.
Note: There is an option to skip the edge mowing and to start scanning (mowing) the main area
of the lawn. Simply press the 'GO" button two times in sequence when starting the mower.
3.5 Mowing Complete
When the Robomower has operated the allotted time, it will simply stop in the lawn, waiting for
you to drive it back home and plug it into the charger, ready for the next mowing session. The
LCD will display a text message as seen in Figure 3.7 if the mowing time is set to the default time
of 'MAX" or the message as shown in Figure 3.8 if the mowing time has been selected to any
time other than "MAX'.

If the Robomower has completed its' mowing and it is more than 20 minutes before you arrive to
move it, the LCD screen will be blank. The Robomower will shut itself down into a sleep mode
after 20 minutes of inactivity at all times. This is an energy saving feature. Pressing the 'GO"
button or removing the Manual Controller from the holder will 'wake up' the Robomower and
display the message that was on the LCD when it went into sleep mode. In this case, either the
message in Figure 3.7 or 3.8.
