- E. If Landroid runs abnormally once in a while, please reset it by turning it off and removing the battery for 30 seconds, then restart it. If the problem cannot be solved, please contact our Customer Service for help.
7. Troubleshooting
If your Landroid does not work correctly, follow the troubleshooting guide below. If the fault persists, contact Customer Service.
| SYMPTOM | CAUSE | SOLUTION |
|---|---|---|
| The LED light on the charging base does not turn on. | There is no power. | Check the charging base is connected properly to the charger and the charger is connected to a suitable power supply. |
| Red light on the charging base. | The boundary wire isn't connected. | Check that the boundary wire has been connected correctly to the charging base. Check there are no breaks in the boundary wire. |
| Landroid turns on, but the blade disc does not spin. | Landroid is searching for the charging base. | This is normal: when Landroid needs to recharge, the blade disc does not rotate while it is searching for the charging base automatically. |
| Landroid vibrates. | The blade disc is unbalanced. Blades may be damaged. | Check the blades and replace them if damaged. Remove debris and foreign objects from the blades and blade disc. |
| Grass is being cut unevenly. | Landroid does not work enough hours per day to cut the grass. | Try adding more hours to the mowing schedule. |
| Mowing area is too big for the size of Landroid you have. | Try decreasing the size of the mowing area or increasing working time. | |
| The blades are dull and not sharp. | Change all the blades and screws in order to balance the blade disc. | |
| The cutting height is set too low for the length of the grass. | Raise the cutting height and then gradually lower. | |
| Grass or another object has wrapped around the blade disc. | Check the blade disc and remove any grass or other objects that might prevent it spinning. | |
| There is a build-up of grass in the blade disc or motor frame box. | Make sure the blade disc rotates easily. If need be, you may take off the blade disc and then remove the debris. | |
| Your Landroid is inside its working area and the boundary wire is connected, but 'E1' is displayed. | The boundary wire ends are clamped incorrectly. | Reverse the boundary wire ends and reconnect to the charging station. |
| The charging time is far more than the rated charging time. | Poor connection caused by debris on the charging strip. | Clean the contact pins located on the charging base and the charging strip on Landroid using a cloth. |
| The charging protection program is activated due to high temperature. | Place the charging base in a shady area or wait until the temperature has cooled down. | |
| The mower does not charge. | There is no power. | Check the power cord is connected properly to the charger and the charger is connected to a suitable power supply. Make sure both the charging strips on the mower touch the centre of the contact strips on the charging base. |
| Landroid is starting to have shorter run-times between charges. | Something is clogging in the blade disc creating friction and increasing power consumption. | Take off the blade disc and clean it. Maybe the grass is too high and too thick. |
| Landroid is shaking heavily because the blade disc is unbalanced. | Check the blade disc and blades, remove debris and foreign objects from the blades and blade disc. Replace the blades with a new set. | |
| The battery may be exhausted or old. | Replace battery. | |
| Landroid is not operating at the correct time. | The working time is up. | Reset the working time. |
| The clock is not set to the correct time. | Set the clock to the correct time. | |
| Programmed cutting times for Landroid are not correct. | Change the time settings for the mower to start and stop. | |
| The percentage of weekly operating time set through APP has changed. | Set the correct percentage through APP. | |
| Landroid cannot correctly dock with the charging base. | Environmental influences. | Restart Landroid. |
| Poor connection caused by debris on the charging strip. | Clean the contact pins located on the charging base and the charging strip on Landroid using a cloth. | |
| The green light on the charging base turns on before charging is complete. | The charging base is overheating or overcooling. | Place the charging base in a shady area or wait until it reaches the normal temperature. |
| Landroid wheels skid or repeatedly slip. | Foreign obstacles, such as twigs and branches may be lodged under Landroid. | Remove foreign objects from underside of Landroid. |
| The lawn is too wet. | Wait until lawn has dried. | |
| Landroid runs outside the boundary wire. | The boundary wire of another Landroid or robotic mower is positioned too closely. | Ensure at least 1m clearance is provided in between your boundary wire and that of your neighbor. |
| Landroid does not mow an area within a boundary wire zone. | In wet conditions, the boundary wire electric signal may leak where the wire has been joined or repaired incorrectly. | Check boundary wire joints. Insulate to provide a fully waterproof connection. |
| Landroid reverses or rotates erratically near the boundary wire. | There is boundary wire electric signal leakage due to broken insulation. | Repair damaged boundary wire with the wire connectors supplied. |
| Landroid slips out of its working area going down a hill. | Low grip of Landroid drive wheels. | Please check the wheels are clean and free of mud in order to have the maximum grip possible. |
| Landroid operative system crashes when charging or on standby. | Software or display fault. | Restart Landroid. |
Troubleshooting: Specific Issues
| ISSUE | CAUSE | SOLUTION |
|---|---|---|
| Landroid shuts off when docking in the charging base. | Landroid fails to charge due to over temperature protection and is powered off. | Place the charging base in a shady area or wait until the temperature has cooled down. |
| Poor connection. | Check the LED light on the charging base. Check the connection between the contact pins located on the charging base and the charging strip. | |
| Landroid stops in the working area. | There is an obstacle in the working area. | Remove the obstacle from Landroid's working area. |
| The cutting height is set too low for the length of the grass or the grass is too dense. | Raise the cutting height and then gradually lower. | |
| The extended boundary wire should not exceed 350m or it may cause signal problem. | Reduce the length of the boundary wire. | |
| The distance between the center of the lawn and the boundary wire should not exceed 25m or it may cause signal attenuation. | Reduce the distance between the center of the lawn and the boundary wire perimeter within 25m. | |
| Landroid flips over. | There is an inclined obstacle on the lawn. | Exclude the obstacle from Landroid's working area. |
| Landroid fails to connect to the internet. | Please check your router has the correct settings. | Make sure your router is 2.4GHz. If your router has two settings, please enable the 2.4GHz band. Make sure your router is set to 802.11 mode and wireless setting is b/g/n mixed. Make sure your router has the SSID Broadcast function enabled when you connect the machine with the APP. You can close it after you connect successfully. Make sure DHCP function is enabled. If you changed your Wi-Fi network, you need to connect Landroid to the new network. If you have a “Fritz!box” router, please make sure to activate "Allow communication between devices in same network" in the settings. |
| Please check whether the router is disconnected or Wi-Fi SSID is changed. | Make sure the router is connected and Wi-Fi SSID is correct. |
