1. FUNCTION
1.11 Docking and charging
This section does not apply to 210 C.
When the battery level becomes too low, the
Automower
®
switches off the blade motor and starts
to search for the charging station. When the mower
receives the N-signal and enters the charging station,
this is called docking.
When the charging strips on the Automower
®
make
contact with the contact strips on the charging
station, the mower stops and charging begins. The
message Charging is shown on the display.
A fault message is displayed when docking fails or
when charging does not work correctly, see
table 6.2.4 Fault symptoms during Docking på
sidan 111.
1.12 Battery
The available capacity drops with a rising ambient air
temperature. The mower adapts itself to this and
returns to the charging station earlier (Does not apply
to 210 C).
Battery charging is normally monitored by the control
box via a temperature sensor in the battery. The
temperature of the battery rises during the entire
charging process.When the battery is fully charged,
the temperature rises and charging stops (does not
apply to 210 C). In general, charging also stops if the
battery temperature exceeds 53º C. The mower is
considered to be fully charged when charging is
stopped.
On 210 C charging is stopped at 48 ºC (118 ºF) or
when the mower has been charged for 15 hours.
For 260 ACX, charging stops when the battery
temperature exceeds 52º C at night (between 9:00
p.m. and 8:00 a.m.), or exceeds 48º C during the day.
If the battery temperature exceeds 43º C when the
mower docks at the charging station, the 260 ACX will
rest and defer its charging until the battery temperature
has dropped below 43º C again. As the temperature
drops, the display will show 0 A as the charging
current. If the STOP button is pressed during this
period, the charge is reabsorbed despite the high
battery temperature.
In summary, the charging times at higher ambient
temperatures will be somewhat longer than normal.
Normal charging currents for the different models are:
• 1,0 A for 210 C
• 1,75 A for 220 AC
• 4,0 A (2 x 2,0 A) for 230 ACX
• 2,1 A for Solar Hybrid
7.0 to 5.0 A (2 x 3.5-2.5 A) for 260 ACX. Decreasing
value as the batteries are recharged over and over.
