22)*
* depending on the model, see technical data.
■
easy and comfort: The charge status displays
for battery 1 (21/1) and battery 2 (21/2) are
located at the bottom of the housing.
■
premium: The charge status displays for bat-
tery 1 (22/1) and battery 2 (22/2) are located
on the cockpit.
The charge status display for each battery com-
prises 4 LEDs. The LEDS flash or light up, de-
pending on the battery charge status.
LED Battery charge status
4 LEDs are lit. Battery fully charged.
3 LEDs are lit. Battery 75% charged.
2 LEDs are lit. Battery 50% charged.
1 LED is lit. Battery 25% charged.
1 LED flashes. Battery almost flat. The ap-
pliance will switch off short-
ly.

7.10 Switching Eco mode ON and OFF (23)*

* depending on the model, see technical data.
The cutting blade runs slower in Eco mode. This
prolongs the operating time of the batteries.
1. Switch on the cockpit (see chapter 6.4
"Switching the cockpit ON and OFF*",
page 39).
2. Switch on Eco mode: Press the "Eco mode"
button (23/1). LED (23/2) comes on.

8 WORK INSTRUCTIONS

Observe the safety instructions!
NOTE Comply with the local regulations as
to when a lawnmower may be operated.
■
Watch out for objects in the grass and re-
move them from the working area.
■
Only mow when visibility is good.
■
Only mow with a sharp cutting blade.
■
Only control the appliance by the handlebar.
■
Only move the appliance at walking speed.
■
Always move the appliance across the slope.
Do not mow up or down the slope, or on
slopes with a gradient of more than 10°. Ex-
ercise particular care when changing direc-
tion.
Cutting performance and operating times of
the batteries
■
The cutting performance or the area that can
be mown depends on the properties of the
grass. Factors such as the length of the
grass, the grass density, the selected cutting
height and wet grass affect the cutting perfor-
mance.
■
Optimum operating time is achieved by fre-
quent mowing and keeping the grass short.
■
Frequently switching the lawnmower on and
off during the mowing process reduces the
cutting performance as do non-fully charged
batteries.
■
To optimise cutting performance, it is recom-
mended to mow the grass often, to set a high
cutting height and to move the appliance at
walking speed.
NOTE Additional batteries can be purchased
to prolong the operating time.
Tips for mowing
■
Maintain a constant cutting height of 3–5 cm;
do not mow the grass to less than half its
original height.
■
Do not overload the lawnmower! If the motor
speed drops noticeably because of long,
thick grass, increase the cutting height and
mow in several passes.
■
Wind and sun can dry out the lawn after
mowing so it is better to mow in the late after-
noon.
