Note
Robo Scooter 500 is equipped with an LCD panel that will no-
tify you in the form of a text message when common operatio-
nal faults occur to instruct the user to perform a certain function
or action.
z If the LCD screen is blank, pressing the 'GO' button one
time will wake the mower up and the last fault or message
displayed prior to stopping will now be displayed.
z If a specific problem re-occurs, it is recommended to iden-
tify the fault code prior to calling for service. Pressing the
'UP' arrow once, while the message is displayed, is a short-
cut button to display the 'Last stop cause'
