Start Mowing Menu
CAUTION: When starting up the Robotic Mower for the first
time after installing the wires in the work area as advance
preparation, be sure to have the Robotic Mower automatically
depart once from the docked state with the charging station.
When the Robotic Mower automatically departs from the charging
station, it saves the magnetic field in its memory and performs
autonomous control so that docking operation is performed properly
thereafter. If this task is not performed, the Robotic Mower may not
execute docking properly when returning, or may otherwise not
function properly.
Select and execute one of the following two methods to have the
Robotic Mower automatically depart from the charging station.
• Dock the fully charged Robotic Mower with the charging station
within the pre-scheduled operation time (or at any time when
using the [Deactivate schedules] sub menu), and then issue
the start instruction using the [Start mowing] menu. For details,
refer to "Start Mowing Menu" (Page 19).
• Tentatively register the departure method in the [Mower depart-
ing points] sub menu of the [Navigation preferences] menu,
and perform test navigation. For details, refer to "Selecting the
departure method from the charging station" (Page 23).
Mowing with automatic operation and charging
[Top menu] > [Start mowing] > [Auto mowing]
The lawn of the main area enclosed by the boundary wire is mowed
automatically. When this menu is selected, the Robotic Mower is
automatically controlled according to the contents set by each menu.
Even if the remaining battery capacity becomes low, the Robotic
Mower can automatically repeat charging and continue to neatly mow
the lawn within the area.
About the main area
This is the mowing work area that has the charging station located
within its boundary. The Robotic Mower continues to navigate ran-
domly and mow the lawn within this area while repeatedly returning
and departing centering on the charging station.

Mowing without automatic charging
[Top menu] > [Start mowing] > [Mowing without charging]
The lawn of a sub area established separately from the main area is
mowed automatically. As there is no path for coming and going with
the main area, automatic charging is not possible in a sub area, yet
automatic operation can continue within the preset time or until the
remaining battery capacity runs out. This setting can also be used
in the main area to perform mowing work for only the selected time
when return to the charging station and charging is not needed.
About the sub area
This is a separate mowing work area that is enclosed by the boundary
wire but does not have a path wide enough for the Robotic Mower
to pass to the main area. Mowing is performed automatically while
detecting the wire signals, but automatic return to the charging station
is not possible.

station in the main area.
Starting auto mowing at the desired timing (Putting
scheduled mowing on hold)
[Top menu] > [Start mowing] > [Deactivate schedules]
You can put pre-scheduled mowing work on hold for a certain period
and have the Robotic Mower operate automatically at the necessary
or convenient timing. The Robotic Mower normally executes and
stops mowing according to a preset schedule, but selecting this menu
lets you operate the Robotic Mower automatically even outside the
scheduled times.

the Robotic Mower or by using the [Park] menu, etc.
Mowing in a spiral pattern
[Top menu] > [Start mowing] > [Mowing - With spiral cutting]
Mowing starts in a spiral pattern from a point of concern within the
area, such as a place where the grass is dense or where the grass
height is uneven due to unmowed grass, etc. After navigating in a
spiral pattern to mow the lawn intensively in a specific location, the
Robotic Mower transitions to normal navigation and continues mow-
ing the entire area.
Normal path and spiral path
The Robotic Mower normally calculates its path automatically and
navigates randomly in straight lines within the area to achieve an
even lawn finish. However, you can prioritize and intensively mow
a target area of concern to achieve a good finish by starting spiral
cutting from a specific location, such as a place where the grass is
dense, unmowed grass remains, or the grass grows faster than other
places.
