What happens if I enter wrong PIN code?

If you enter the wrong PIN code for your Automower® robotic lawn mower five times consecutively, the product will lock for a certain period of time. This lock duration extends with each new incorrect attempt. Wait until the lock duration has passed, then enter the correct PIN code. Depending on your alarm settings, an alarm may sound if you enter the wrong PIN code. The alarm will stop once the correct PIN code is entered.

Recovering your forgotten Automower® PIN code

If you’ve forgotten or lost the PIN code for your Automower® robotic lawn mower, you can recover it using the Automower® Connect app or by contacting a dealer. The recovery process depends on the status of your mower, the Automower® model, and your smartphone’s operating system.
