Wherever possible, only mow dry lawns. Damp lawns may lead to
uneven cutting.
The area of lawn you can mow with one charged accu depends
on the height and thickness of the lawn, i.e. the taller and thicker
the lawn, the smaller the area of lawn you can mow with one fully
charged Accu.
With very dense grass, we recommend thatching the lawn. For
example with the GARDENA Lawn Aerator art. no. 4068.
5. Initial Operation
Before using for the first time, the battery must be fully charged.
Charging time with standard charger (for uncharged battery)
approx. 6 hrs.
The lithium-ion battery can be charged in any state of charge,
and the charging process can be interrupted at any time without
harming the battery (no memory effect).
WARNING !
A
Overvoltage damages batteries and the battery
charger.
V Ensure the correct mains voltage.
1. Press in both locking buttons
E
and remove the Accu
F
from
the cylinder lawnmower.
2. Insert the plug of the charger cable
G
into the Accu
F
.
3. Insert the charging unit
H
into a mains socket.
The charging control lamp
I
on the charging unit is lit red.
The Accu is being charged.
When the charging control lamp
I
is lit green, the Accu is fully
charged.
4. First disconnect the plug of the charging cable and then
disconnect the charging unit from the mains socket.
5. Push Accu
F
onto the cylinder lawnmower until it locks in
place.
Do not operate the cylinder lawnmower until the spindle stops
again (Accu is fully discharged), as this shortens the life of the
Accu.
v If the cylinder lawnmower stops during operation or no longer
starts (charging level display flashes red), recharge the Accu.
When the Accu is fully discharged (e.g. long storage), the char-
ging control lamp
I
flashes at the beginning of the charging pro-
cess. If the charging control lamp is still flashing after 2 hours,
there is a fault (see 9. Troubleshooting).
