Creating and managing work areas with AIM Technology

Only applies to Automower® models that support AIM technology:

With AIM Technology, you can define specific work areas within your lawn that can be scheduled separately and assigned their own cutting heights. This allows for more precise and customised lawn care.

What is a work area?

A work area is a designated section of your lawn that can have its own mowing schedule and cutting height. The settings for the work area apply only when the mower is operating according to the work area schedule.

How to create a work area using AIM technology

1. In the Automower® Connect app, select Map.
2. Tap the plus (+) to create a new map object.
3. Select Add work area.
4. Move the waypoints to cover the desired area on your map. You can reposition any point by tapping on it again.
5. Rename the area.
6. Set the schedule and cutting height.

Tips for optimal work area setup

• Include reference points: Ensure that the work area contains as many reference points as possible, such as trees, islands and long boundary and guide wire sections. This helps the mower navigate to and from the work area.
• Position the border: Due to the accuracy of the AIM Technology, place the border of the work area outside your lawn (at least 1.5 m/5 ft.) to ensure that the mower cuts the grass all the way to the boundary wire. The mower will never go beyond the boundary wire.

Good to know

• Stay-out zones: If there is an active stay-out zone within the work area, the mower will not enter that zone.
• Work area operation: If you want the mower to run only according to the work area settings, remove the schedule from My lawn.
• Overlapping work areas: If you create two adjacent work areas, make them overlap to ensure that the mower cuts the grass at the border of the work areas.
• Overlapping schedules: If two work areas have overlapping schedules, the mower will prioritise the area that was cut less recently.
