1. Safety Instructions

Always prioritize safety when operating the robotic lawn mower. Failure to follow these instructions may result in injury or damage to the product.

• Keep hands and feet away from the cutting blades.
• Ensure the boundary wire is correctly installed to prevent the mower from leaving the designated area.
• Do not operate the mower in wet conditions or during heavy rain, unless specifically designed for it (L22 has a rain sensor).
• Turn off the mower and remove the safety key before performing any maintenance or cleaning.
• Keep children and pets away from the working area of the mower.
• The mower is equipped with ultrasonic obstacle avoidance and lift/tilt sensors for safety. Do not attempt to bypass these features.

3. Setup

3.1. Choosing a Location for the Charging Station

Select a flat, level area with access to a power outlet. Ensure there is sufficient clear space around the charging station for the mower to dock easily.

3.2. Installing the Boundary Wire

The boundary wire defines the mowing area. It can be laid on top of the ground and secured with pegs, or buried a few centimeters deep. Ensure the wire forms a continuous loop around the entire mowing area, including around obstacles like trees or flowerbeds that you do not want the mower to enter.

Important: Maintain a minimum distance from edges and obstacles as specified in the detailed installation guide (refer to the quick start guide for specific measurements). The mower uses intelligent navigation and mapping, but the boundary wire is crucial for defining the operational perimeter.

3.3. Initial Charging

Once the charging station is set up and connected, place the mower onto the charging contacts. The mower will begin charging. Allow it to fully charge before its first operation.

3.4. App Control and Intelligent Mapping

Download the official SUNSEEKER app from your device's app store. Follow the in-app instructions to connect your L22 mower to your Wi-Fi network (2.4 GHz required). The app allows for intelligent mapping of your yard, setting schedules, and controlling the mower remotely.

4. Operating the Mower

4.1. Starting and Stopping

To start the mower, ensure it is within the boundary wire and press the 'Start' button on the control panel or via the app. To stop, press the 'Stop' button or use the app. The mower will return to its charging station when its battery is low or when its schedule is complete.

4.2. Mowing Schedule

Use the app to set a customized mowing schedule. You can define specific days and times for the mower to operate. The L22 is designed to be quiet (only 57 dB), allowing for flexible scheduling, even during evening hours.

4.3. Rain Sensor and Rain Delay

The L22 is equipped with a rain sensor. If rain is detected, the mower will automatically return to its charging station and pause its operation. The Rain Delay technology ensures it resumes mowing only when conditions are suitable, preventing damage to your lawn from mowing wet grass.

4.4. Obstacle Avoidance and Safety Features

The mower utilizes ultrasonic obstacle avoidance sensors to detect and navigate around objects in its path. Additionally, lift and tilt sensors automatically stop the blades if the mower is lifted or tilted, enhancing safety.

5. Maintenance

5.1. Cleaning

The SUNSEEKER L22 has an IPX5 waterproof rating, allowing for easy cleaning. You can directly rinse the machine with a hose to remove grass clippings and dirt. Ensure the mower is turned off and disconnected from the charging station before cleaning.

5.2. Blade Replacement

Regularly inspect the cutting blades for wear and tear. Dull or damaged blades can affect cutting performance. Replace blades as needed using the provided replacement blades and tools. Always wear protective gloves when handling blades.
