4.1 Mowing Zones Management

The Mammotion app allows you to manage up to 15 distinct mowing zones. You can define these zones, create seamless pathways between them, and set customizable no-go zones (e.g., flower beds, pools) to prevent the mower from entering specific areas. This provides tailored lawn care for different sections of your yard.
