Gardena SILENO minimo 250: Robotic mower does not park

What this fault means

The mower cannot reliably reach or seat in the charging station.

Safety: Stop the mower and follow the manufacturer safety instructions before physical inspection.

Step-by-step checks

1. Clear the station approach and check that the base is level.
2. For wired models, inspect guide wire routing/calibration.
3. For wireless models, verify map/positioning and station location.
4. Clean contacts and confirm the mower actually begins charging when docked.
5. If return fails at the same location, diagnose navigation there rather than replacing the charger.
