10 Installing the Robotic Mower
The robotic mower is receiving a reversed-
polarity wire signal. The display shows the
message "Connections swapped or iMow
outside."
For troubleshooting information, @ 22.2.
10.7 Checking the Installation
► Start the test run by pressing the OK button on the control
panel / manual controller. This does not activate the
mowing blade.
The robotic mower will start following the perimeter wire
along the edge of the mowing area.
► As the robotic mower follows the edge, walk behind it and
ensure the following:
– The robotic mower follows the edge of the mowing area.
– The robotic mower clears obstacles and the borders of
the mowing area.
– The robotic mower docks and undocks properly.
The robotic mower tracks its location using the built-in GPS
receiver. The coordinates of the perimeter wire are captured
during installation and each time the "iMow follows edge"
function is performed.
The display will show the distance covered as the robotic
mower travels around the perimeter of the mowing area.
► If you want to set specific starting points along the
perimeter wire, take note of the distance indicated on the
display at the desired location. For more information on
starting points, see @ 15.6.

► Remove all obstacles from the perimeter and adjust the
perimeter wire as necessary to ensure problem-free
operation.
To continue the test run after an interruption:
25 ft
► Place the robotic mower on the perimeter wire or place it
within the mowing area facing the perimeter wire.
► Select Yes and press the OK button on the control panel /
manual controller.
After completing the test run, the robotic mower will dock
and then repeat the test in the opposite direction. After
completing the second test run, the robotic mower will dock
again and the next step of the installation assistant will be
called up. A successful perimeter wire test must be
completed for iMow to work properly.
NOTICE
STIHL recommends completing the full test run in both
directions.
10.8 Programming the Robotic Mower: the Mowing
Plan
WARNING
The robotic mower can be programmed to cut autonomously
during specific blocks of time (active times). When utilizing
this feature, keep bystanders, especially children, and pets
