At what temperature can I use and store my Automower® robotic lawn mower?
For safety reasons, your Automower® robotic lawn mower is allowed to mow only when the temperature is within a specified temperature range (see below). If the temperature is outside these limits, the mower will not start operating. Extreme high temperatures might even cause damage to the product.
Below are the temperature ranges for Automower® robotic lawn mowers, for operation, storage and charging.
To ensure that your mower does not get too hot while charging, make sure that the charging station is put in an area with protection from the sun.
How is the temperature measured?
The temperature is measured by a sensor located inside the chassis. The registered value may therefore differ slightly from the ambient temperature.
Lawn care and temperature
Theoretically, your mower can work within the entire operating temperature range, but it is usually not necessary to mow the lawn when it gets colder than approximately 8°C/40°F (may vary depending on grass type). This is because the grass more or less stops growing at this temperature. Also, the grass is extra sensitive to wear if the garden is covered with frost, so it is good for your lawn to give it a bit of rest when it is cold.
It is a good idea to adjust the schedule when it gets cold outside. Husqvarna offers two features that can help you adjust the mowing schedule automatically to the grass growth and the ambient temperature:
