6.3 Timer
The lawn should not be cut too often to obtain the
best mowing result. Consequently, it is important to
limit the operating time using the timer function if the
working area is less than the robotic lawnmower's
working capacity. When the robotic lawnmower is
allowed to mow too much, the lawn may appear
flattened. Besides, the robotic lawnmower is
subjected to unnecessary wear.
The timer function is also an ideal means to control
which work hours the robotic lawnmower should not
mow, for example, when the children are playing in
the garden.
The factory setting is 07:00 - 23:00 (07:00-22:00 for
GARDENA R40Li) and it allows mowing every day of
the week. This is normally a suitable setting for a 700
m

working area (400 m

for the GARDENA R40Li).
When setting the timer, calculate that the robotic
lawnmower mows about 45 m

per hour and day (30

A clock symbol is displayed on the start page when the
timer settings are set. The clock symbol is black when
the robotic lawnmower is not allowed to mow due to a
timer setting and it is white when the mower is allowed
to mow.
The robotic lawnmower has an inbuilt standby period
of about 8 hours a day (11 hours for the GARDENA
R40Li). The robotic lawnmower is parked in the
charging station during this period. See 4.2 Using the
timer on page 35.
