The autonomous working machine including: a magnetic field detection part for detecting a magnetic field generated by the energization to the area wire; a storage part for storing a reference value of the magnetic field detection by the magnetic field detection part; a control part for controlling a traveling route based on the reference value stored in the storage part and the magnetic field detected by the magnetic field detection means; and an input part for receiving a selection of a first reference value used in a case where the area wire is installed at a first distance from the ground or a second reference value used in a case where the area wire is installed at a second distance from the ground, wherein the control part controls a traveling route based on the first reference value or the second reference value selected by the input part.
