Can the robot be used during the cold winter?

We do not recommend mowing frost-covered lawns in winter to avoid damaging the lawn. Moreover, to ensure battery life, the battery may not be charged if the temperature is below 6°C. So it is recommended to use the robot in environmental temperatures above 6°C.

Do I need to bring both the robot and the charging station indoors for the winter?

The long-term storage temperature for both the robot and the charging station is -10 to 35°C. However, to extend battery life, it is recommended to turn them off, disconnect the power, and store in a dry and cool place with a temperature of 0 to 25°C when the robot is not in use.

Will long-term exposure to the sun outdoors affect the robot?

Long-term exposure to the sun outdoors may result in a reduced lifespan of the robot. It is recommended to purchase a MOVA roboticmower garage for use.

If I will not be using the robot for a period of time, can I leave it on the charging station to charge continuously?

If you're not using the robot for more than a week, it is recommended to disconnect it from power to protect the battery. For long-term storage, please fully charge the robot, then turn it off and store it; and recharge it every six months to prevent excessive battery discharge from causing damage.

Can I directly wash the robot with a water spray gun?

The robot has an IPX6 waterproof rating, so you can rinse it with a hose, but please do not use a high-pressure water washer.

Can the robot mow under a trampoline?

The horizontal bars at the bottom of the trampoline can be difficult for the robot to pass over, which may cause it to get stuck. It is recommended to designate the trampoline area as a no-go zone. You can select 'Manual Mode' in the app to remotely control the robot to mow the grass under the trampoline.
