Hello can I lay the wire to have the robot go to the front and back yard or should that be seperate zones?
How to reset the loop signal following installation of new guide wire?
At 2:00 mark, you state that the pond must be protected with a 15 cm high barrier. Is this to keep the robot from falling into the pond if the boundary wire is not working? If the boundary wire is cut or not working for another reason, does the robot then run off?
Hello Bryan,
thanks for your message. No, if the cable is cut or not working, the robotic lawn mower stops.
Best regards

@@GardenaWorldwideso why does there need to be a barrier if the lawnmower will stop?
Scenario 1:
The lawnmower reaches the boundary wire and changes direction
Scenario 2:
The boundary wire is cut and the lawnmower stops
Scenario 3:
_________ and the lawnmower hits the barrier stopping it going into the pond.
Can you please fill in the blank in scenario 3 so I can understand what would lead to me needing a 15cm barrier?
How do you need to place the guide wire if you have a square perk?
The boundary wire should be put as a loop around the work area. Sensors in the product senses when the product approaches the boundary wire, and the product selects another direction. All parts of the work area must be maximum 15 m / 50 ft. from the boundary wire. If you’ve got any more questions please don’t hesitate to contact us directly via this link: www.gardena.com/int/support/advice/contact/
Hello, could it be 2 guide wire installed (from different sides of the garden)?
The guide wire is put from the charging station to a remote part of the work area or through a narrow passage. The guide wire is connected with the boundary wire to make it easier and faster for the product to find the charging station.
There is no need to install two guide wires unless there isn’t a secondary area (if the two areas aren’t connected by a passage) and there is a second charging station in the secondary area. If not it is only necessary to put the boundary wire around the secondary area.
@@GardenaWorldwide Thank you for reply. But I have TWO areas around house WITH NARRROW passage, so could it be 2 GUIDES to charging station? ("two guide wires unless there isn’t a secondary area (if the two areas aren’t connected by a passage")
Hi, I’ve set this up, but my mower won’t charge. It’s on the dock but won’t show the battery charging on the display. Am I missing a step ? 😢 I’ve two of these and they both aren’t changing

How can you mow the other side of the cable? More work to to do
Hi Reeds, depending on the contitions of your garden and lawn, it can last some rest to mow. You can cut the lasting grass with our GARDENA Trimmers.
@@GardenaWorldwide so useless then!
How to set remote starting points??? Don't get that at all
Hello Tom,
If the work area includes remote parts that are connected with narrow passages, the Lawn Coverage and CorridorCut function are useful to be able to maintain a well-cut lawn in all parts of the yard. The Lawn Coverage function is used to
guide the product to remote parts of the work area. The CorridorCut function is used for narrow passage mowing. A guide wire must be installed to use these functions. You can set a maximum of 3 remote areas.
With the Lawn Coverage function the product first follows and then leaves the guide wire after a certain distance and starts to mow the lawn.
The CorridorCut function is suitable to mow narrow passages of 60 cm - 1.5 m / 23 in. - 4.9 ft. width. The product moves in a pattern to cover the passage width. The product starts the CorridorCut at the set distance from the charging station. When the product reaches the end of the narrow passage, the product continues and cuts the lawn as normal.
Area A, approximately 50%
Area B, approximately 30%
Area C, approximately 20%
Best regards

@@GardenaWorldwide Thank you for your reply! Wow I gotta let this sink in. If you have an example somewhere please be my guide ;-)
There are 0.0% examples in the operators manual I received. It would also be helpful to explain in the beginning the idea of the guide wire. I come from a system without a guide wire. Yes, intelligent systems WITHOUT one. Can you imagine?
Hello Reinout,
thank you for your message.
The idea of the guide wire is, that the mower will find to home, if his battery gets low. Or you can that the mower can start after following the guide wire in the
See examples for the guide wire in the manuals, like in the SILENO life:

How does it deal with dog poo?
Hello Nico,
we recommend to clean the lawn after the dog is done with the pooing. Otherwise the mower will spread it everywhere.

looks complicated
Hey Alliks82, actually, it's not too bad. The videos on this channel can help you to set it up :)
It's quite easy.. I'm fairly sure a 10 year old could set it up..
I could have got one of these for free for review, but decided not to because it looks like such a faff with all the wires and rules about how to use it. Much easier just doing it manually :\
Hey @Ironbuket, we're sorry to hear that the installation seems very complicated. Indeed, it is a bit of work you need to do when it comes to the setup but it will last you a very long time :)
So you're saying very little effort is too much for you? It took me the same amount of time setting it up as it would moving my lawn by hand 3 times.. and now I can enjoy a beautiful lawn without lifting a finger.
@@mtb_landin Thank you for the unwarranted sarcastic tone in your reply, but I looked into this in detail and decided it wasnt for me. For those with large square gardens I can certainly see the appeal, but for smaller gardens with many obstacles, curved/corners in raised beds etc the setup of the wires can be a big job. The type of boarders you have, whether you have some kind of barrier there already or the lawn just stops and drops into soil also affects things.. The random cutting pattern also can result in uneven patches if you have set it loose on very large lawns. It also cant cut right up to the edges, so you may have to go out with another mower after and finish off...
Are you an Amazon reviewer? I just snagged one to review and it comes tomorrow! I'm excited. Setup does look tedious but I HATE mowing so I say it's worth it.
Was planning on buying this, but oh my word, that's far too much cable work.
yeah, it is crap. On the other hand, you only have to do that once, i think
It took me the same time setting it up as it would moving my lawn by hand 3 times.. and now I never have to do it again and the lawn looks so much better..
@@munnypoltric I've heard of some of them running wires over and I can't imagine how on earth I'm going to trim around that wire without hitting it with a trimmer. Should be interesting for sure! My yards simply too big to run a border along it or I'd do that and hide the wire with it...
Very confusing instructional video...

Too much trouble... better to just do it manually every 2nd week.
Hello Jacob,
thank you for your message. This is really a possible way, too. But with our GARDENA robot lawn mowers life can be much more easier.
Best regards
GARDENA Service
Must not get much rain... I have to mow at least weekly here in Oklahoma.
Looks gash. So much cable work.
Hey Darryl Hart, we understand that this looks tedious, however, it will last you very long and can save you time in the long run :)
The worst and the most useless purchase I have ever made. It creates more troubles than I thought it would free me from. Not worth it, would strongly recommend not to buy it.
@stan04104 we're sorry to hear that you are not happy with the purchase you made. We hope you contacted our customer service department in this case to receive help with the troubles you mention. Have a great day!
Hey @stan04104, we are sorry to hear that you didn't like the product. Have you tried to contact our customer service?
Comments like this COULD help yourself and others if you explained how you are having problem. What is giving you a hard time? Someone here or customer service can probably help.
@@bluefrog85 thank you for your suggestion, but I gave up on this product and have no intention to spend more time on this than I already did.
@@stan04104just lazy then
