If the robotic lawnmower is stolen, it is important to notify Husqvarna AB of this. Contact your local dealer and provide
the product's serial number so that it can be registered as stolen in an international database. This is an important
step in the robotic lawnmower's theft protection which reduces interest in the buying and selling of stolen robotic
lawnmowers.
The product's serial number consists of nine digits and is shown on the product rating plate (found on the inside of the
display cover) and the product's packaging.

1.1 Introduction
Congratulations on your choice of an exceptionally
high quality product. To get the best results from your
Husqvarna robotic lawnmower requires knowledge of
how it works. This operator's manual contains important
information about the robotic lawnmower, how it must be
installed and how it is used.
As a complement to this Operator's Manual, there is
more information available on the Automower® website,
www.automower.se. Here you can nd more help and
guidance in its use.
Keep in mind that the operator is responsible for
accidents or hazards occurring to other people or their
property.
Husqvarna has a policy of continuous product
development and therefore reserves the right to modify
the design, appearance and function of products without
prior notice.
The following system is used in the Operator's Manual to
make it easier to use:
• Text written in italics is a text that is shown on the
robotic lawnmower's display or is a reference to
another section in the Operator's Manual.
• Words written in bold are one of the buttons on the
robotic lawnmower's keypad.
• Words written in UPPERCASE and italics refer to the
position of the main switch and the different operating
modes available in the robotic lawnmower.
