• Periodically visually inspect the machine and replace worn or damaged parts for safety.
• Ensure that only official Bosch replacement parts are used.
• Replace all blades and bolts as a set as required.

Storage in winter

• Turn off the mower using the isol ator switch.
• The mower will operate between 5 °C and 45 °C. During the winter season once the temperature in the garden is consistently below 5 °C store the mower and the docking station in a secure, dry place, out of the reach of children.

Do not place other objects on the mower or docking station.
It is recommended to use the original packaging when transporting the Indego over long distances.
The mower can also be stored using the storage bag.

• Store the mower only within a temperature range between –20 °C and 50 °C. As an example, do not leave the mower in the car in summer.

USB

• The mower has a USB interface which is to be used exclusively for software updates (see figure M). Use only approved USB.org sticks (formatted to FAT 32) and approved USB.org OTG cables.
• More details about software updates can be found at Bosch-Indego.com.
• Do not use the USB interface for any additional purposes. Do not plug any external devices.

Recommendations for Optimal Handling of the Battery Pack

• Do not open the battery. There is a risk of short-circuiting.
  Protect the battery against heat (e.g., against continuous intense sunlight), fire, water, and moisture. There is a risk of explosion.

• Keep any unfitted battery away from paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.

• In case of damage and improper use of the battery pack, vapours may be emitted. Ventilate the area and seek medical help in case of complaints. The vapours can irritate the respiratory system.

• The battery can be damaged by pointed objects such as nails or screwdrivers or by force applied externally. An internal short circuit can occur and the battery can burn, smoke, explode or overheat.

• If used incorrectly or if the battery is damaged, flammable liquid may be ejected from the battery. Contact with this liquid should be avoided. If contact accidentally occurs, rinse off with water. If the liquid comes into contact with your eyes, seek additional medical attention. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.

• Do not short-circuit the battery. There is a risk of explosion.

• Use only Bosch battery packs in- tended specifically for the ma- chine. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.

• Ensure the switch is in the off posi- tion before inserting battery. In- serting the battery pack into ma- chines that have the switch on can cause accidents.

• Only open the battery compartment when the battery is exhausted. Leave the battery in the machine for storage in winter. The built-in battery is very long-lasting; do not open the battery compartment until you notice a significant reduction in the run time between two battery charging procedures.

• The Indego will operate between 5 °C and 45 °C. If the battery temperature is outside this range, the Indego will display a message and will not leave the docking station. If operating, the Indego will return to the docking sta- tion or stay in place.

• Recharge only in the Bosch ap- proved docking station.

Safety Warnings for Docking Station and Power Supply

• Only use the original Bosch dock- ing station and power cord to charge the mower. Otherwise there is danger of fire and explosion.
• Check the docking station, power supply unit, cables and plugs peri- odically. If damage or ageing is de- tected, isolate from the docking station or power supply and do not use them. Never open the docking station or power supply yourself. Have repairs performed only by a qualified Bosch technician and only using original spare parts. A damaged docking station, power supply, cable or plug increases the risk of an electric shock.
• Do not operate the docking station and power supply on easily flam-mable surfaces (e. g., paper, tex- tiles, etc.) or surroundings. The heating of the docking station and power supply during the charging process can pose a fire hazard.
• Supervise children at all times. This will ensure that children do not play with the docking station, power supply or the machine.
• The voltage indicated on the power supply must correspond to the voltage of the power source.
• We recommend that the power sup- ply is only connected into a socket which is protected by a circuit- breaker that would be actuated by a 30 mA residual current. Check your Residual Current Device (RCD) at regular intervals.
• The supply cord must be inspected for signs of damage at regular inter- vals.
• In the event of flooding of the dock- ing station turn off power supply at mains and contact Bosch Service Centre.
• Never touch the mains plug or any other plugs with wet hands.
• Do not run over, crush or pull the cables. Protect the cables from heat, oil and sharp edges.

The power supply is double insulated for safety and requires no earth con- nection. The operating voltage is 230 V AC, 50 Hz (for non-EU countries 220 V, 240 V as applicable). Contact your Bosch Service Centre for details. If in doubt contact a qualified electrician or the nearest Bosch Service Centre.

Installation

For a video guide on how to install the mower, please visit www.bosch- indego.com or use the following QR-Code. Alternatively, follow the Installation Guide delivered with the product.

https://www.bosch-garden.com/gb/en/garden-tools/indego-home.jsp

Check if the perimeter wire is fully pegged to the ground avoiding any slack lengths of wire. Any loose wire can be a trip hazard.
Remove stones, loose pieces of wood, wire, live mains cables and other foreign objects from the cutting area.
Make sure that the cutting area is even and has no ditches, grooves and steep slopes above 15°/27 %, which are clear obstructions for the mower.
The docking station must be positioned on the wire at an outer edge of the cutting area. It may not be positioned on the side of a tool or garden shed standing as an island within the lawn to be mowed.
It is recommended that you mow your lawn once with a conventional lawnmower before installing and before the first mowing of the new season and whenever the grass clippings would be longer than 5 mm.
The mower’s cutting system is designed to cut small lengths of grass (30–50 mm). The clippings can remain as mulch to fertilize the lawn. The height of cut for mower can be adjusted to 30, 40 and 50 mm.
It is recommended to start with a higher setting and then gradually decrease the height of cut as the wire disappears under the grass. This prevents your Indego from cutting the wire.
Additional perimeter wire can be added using a wire connector (see figures D–E).
The perimeter wire can be extended up to a maximum length of 350 m.
The perimeter wire can be buried up to 5 cm under the ground (or under non- metallic slabs).
To avoid causing damage to the perimeter wire, do not verticut or rake the area where it is positioned.
When laying out the wire avoid angles of less than 45°.
This can affect the performance.

Adding a further Garden/Lawn Area (see figure K)
To install the Indego to an additional lawn area, please follow the instructions in the Installation Guide.
Separate garden with separate docking station (see figure K, right side): The mower can be used on up to three different gardens. For an additional garden, a separate docking station (see figure A) and the necessary perimeter wire and pegs are required. If a schedule or the “Bosch AUTO” calendar function or the Bosch ”SmartMowing” functionality is set, the grass of the area it is in will be cut, within the defined time slots.
Switch off the mower when transporting it between the individual gardens.
Note: software updates have to be carried out on the mower in every docking station.
To ensure remembering which docking station belongs to which garden, it is recommended to label the docking stations with the garden number and description when storing them for winter.
Without separate docking station: It is possible to connect the lawn area by placing the perimeter wire between the two lawn areas parallel to each other as close as possible (see figure K, top left). The additional lawn area without docking station is not recorded in the map memory and the mower will not use the LogiCut cutting strategy in this lawn area without the docking station. The maximum recommended lawn area without a docking station is 50 m². The mower will mow until it runs out of battery and will need to be carried back to the docking station for charging.

Mowing

• Do not let children ride the mower.
• Press the stop button on top of the mower before lifting. Always lift the mower by its handle. (see figure F)

Make sure the cutting area is free of small animals such as hedgehogs or tortoises.
Only with Indego M 700: After successful installation you can either immediately begin to mow by confirming “Mow now” on the display, or wait for the next scheduled cutting period, as programmed by the “Bosch AUTO” Calendar Function (previous setting required).
A manual mowing schedule can also be set up according to your specific needs.
Only with Indego M+ 700: After successful installation, you can begin mowing immediately by confirming “Mow now” on the display, or on the free Bosch Smart Gardening App by pressing “mow”. You could also set up a programmed schedule, using the Bosch “SmartMowing” functionality, which can also plan future cutting sessions based on when it is forecasted to rain. You could also set up a programmed schedule in the calendar using the display or the Bosch Smart Gardening App.
The mower must mow a garden 3 times completely (do 3 full cuts) to learn the garden. During the learning phase, the visual result may not be optimal.
Approximate runtimes for complete garden coverage using LogiCut are listed below. Please note that the runtimes will vary depending on the lawn complexity and number of objects within the garden.

Set a schedule with frequent repetitions. This achieves good mowing results, the battery charge will last longer and you avoid debris on the lawn.
When the mower is mowing
In “manual” mode, the mower works until the lawn is mowed. Mowing is interrupted only for charging the battery. When the garden is mowed, the mower returns to the docking station.
In the programmable “Schedule” mode, with the “Bosch AUTO” calendar function or with the Bosch “SmartMowing” functionality, the mower operates continuously for a set period of time. Mowing is interrupted only for charging the battery. If the garden is mowed before the time period expires, the mower returns to the dock.
To stop mowing prematurely, press the Stop button or send the mower back to the docking station pressing the confirm button ✓.
With Indego M+ 700 you can send the mower back to the docking station, by pressing the “Dock” button on the free Bosch Smart Gardening App.
Energy saving mode
The mower reduces its energy consumption by automatically switching off the power in the perimeter wire when it is not mowing and not being charged.
To wake up the mower manually from the energy saving mode, press the confirm button ✓and afterwards select either “Mow now” or another “Mowing mode”, while the mower is in the docking station.
With Indego M+ 700 you can wake up the mower remotely from the energy saving mode, by pressing the “mow” button on the free Bosch Smart Gardening App.
For mowing based on an active schedule or with the “Bosch AUTO” calendar function or with the Bosch “SmartMowing” functionality, the energy saving mode is automatically ended.
Mowing small lawn areas with „SpotMow“
SpotMow is intended for mowing small areas that require special treatment without having to mow the whole lawn, such as the area under a piece of garden furniture that has been removed. The mower is positioned at the lower left corner of the intended area to mow (see figure H). The final mowed area depends on the lawn conditions; it will not necessarily be an exact square. After completion of „SpotMow“, follow the instructions on the screen.
Note: For safety reasons, „SpotMow“ cannot be used outside the perimeter wire.
Sensors
The mower is equipped with the following sensors:

• The lift-up sensor is activated when the mower is lifted.

• The rollover sensor detects when the mower tips over.

• The tilt sensor is activated when the mower reaches a slope angle of 32°.
  When one of the sensors is activated, e.g. the lift-up sensor, the drive motors and cutting blades are stopped. A message is indicated in the display, e.g. “lift-up”.

• The obstacle sensor detects objects/obstacles alongside the entire front edge of the mower and causes a change of direction.

Battery charging
The battery is equipped with temperature monitoring that allows charging only if the battery internal temperature is in the range between 5 °C and 45 °C.
The lithium-ion battery is supplied partially charged. It is recommended to charge the mower during installation of the perimeter wire in the docking station.
The lithium-ion battery can be charged at any time without reducing its service life. Interrupting the charging procedure does not damage the battery.
When the battery is run flat or discharged, the mower is shut off by means of a protective circuit: the blades no longer move.
Replacing the Battery (see figure L)
Note: The battery only needs to be replaced when it is exhausted. It is not intended to charge the battery outside the mower.

• Using unsuitable batteries can lead to malfunctions or damage the mower.
• Heavily used batteries may have a significant effect in the mower run time.
• Do not use non-rechargeable batteries in the mower.
  Use only batteries specified by the manufacturer.

Note: Always wear protective gloves when handling or working near the sharp blades.
Switch off the mower by the isolator switch.
Remove the 5 screws of the battery compartment cover with a Torx T-20 screwdriver.
Pivot the used battery with the guide rail out of the battery compartment until the battery unlocking button can be seen and accessed. Press the battery unlocking button and remove the battery.
Insert the new battery into the guide rail until the locking mechanism can be heard to engage. Pivot back the battery with the guide rail into the battery compartment. Mount the battery compartment cover and screw it tight with the 5 screws.
The battery compartment cover protects the battery against moisture during operation.
Updating the Software (see figure M)
To update the software, you need a USB.org stick (FAT 32 formatted) and a USB OTG cable.
If a new software version is available, you can find it on the Internet on the “ www.bosch-indego.com ” page. Load the “IN8xxxx.bin” file onto the USB.org stick.
Turn the mower over and remove the cover from the USB port. Connect the USB OTG cable with the USB.org stick.
Place the mower in the docking station and make sure that the docking station is connected to mains (LED on docking station is on). The mower must be switched on, the display alight and the battery must be at least 70% charged.
