Gardena smart SILENO free 600: Charging station flashes blue/red

What this fault means

Station status indicates signal, positioning or hardware issue depending on wireless model.

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

Step-by-step checks

1. Record the exact colour and whether it is solid or flashing.
2. Confirm station power and cable connections.
3. Check model-specific support because SILENO free/pro/max status meanings differ from wired SILENO.
4. Restart only after any update or initialization has completed.
5. Persistent red hardware status should be escalated rather than repeatedly remapping.
