TROUBLESHOOTING

9.3 Indicator lamp in the charging station

For a fully functional installation, the indicator lamp in the charging station must emit a solid green light. If something 

else appears, follow the troubleshooting guide below. 
There is more troubleshooting help on www.gardena.com. If you still need help with troubleshooting, please contact 

GARDENA Central Service. 

See MEMO on page 2

 

Light

Cause

Action

Solid green light

Good signals

No action required

Green flashing light

The signals are good and ECO mode 

is activated.

No action required. For more information on ECO 

mode, 

see 6.8 Settings on page 56

.

Blue flashing light

The boundary loop is not connected 

to the charging station

Check that the boundary wire connectors are 

fitted properly to the charging station. 

See 3.5 

Connecting the boundary wire on page 27

.

Break in the boundary loop

Find out where the break is. Replace the 

damaged section of the loop with a new loop 

wire and splice using an original coupler. 

Red flashing light

Interruption in the charging station’s 

antenna

Contact GARDENA Central Service. 

See MEMO 

on page 2

Solid blue light

Weak signal as the boundary wire is 

too long. Max length is 800 metres. 

No steps have to be taken if the robotic 

lawnmower operates as expected.
Shorten the boundary wire by reducing the 

working area or replacing islands with barriers 

the

 

robotic lawnmower can collide with.

Solid red light

Defective circuit board in the 

charging station

Contact GARDENA Central Service. 

See MEMO 

on page 2

9.4 Symptoms

If your robotic lawnmower does not work as expected, follow the troubleshooting guide below. 
There is a FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) on www.gardena.com which provides more detailed answers to a 

number of standard questions. Contact GARDENA Central Service if you still cannot find the reason for the fault. 

See MEMO on page 2

 

Symptoms

Cause

Action

The robotic 

lawnmower has 

difficulty docking with 

the charging station

The charging station is on a slope

Place the charging station on a surface that is 

entirely level. 

See 3.2 Installation of the charging 

station on page 16

.

The boundary wire is not laid 

correctly by the charging station.

Check that the charging station has been 

installed according to the instructions.
