3.17 Yard layout examples
The robotic mower’s behaviour is controlled to a certain extent by what settings are made. Adapting the robotic
lawnmower's settings according to the shape of the lawn makes it easier for the robotic lawnmower to frequently
reach all parts and therefore achieve a perfect mowing result.
Different layouts require different settings. The following pages outline a number of layout examples with installation
proposals and settings.
The recommended schedule settings in the following examples are applicable to SILENO city (for 500 m
2
) unless
otherwise stated.
There is more installation help on www.gardena.com.
Note: The default settings for the robotic lawnmower have been chosen to work in as many different gardens as
possible. The settings only need to be adjusted when special installation conditions exist.
