Robot lawnmower cannot be found; it stopped somewhere in the garden without returning to the station and battery is empty.

Safety first: Once found, turn OFF the mower before moving it.

• Review boundary and search wire layout: Ensure the search wire provides a clear path from remote areas back to the station, avoiding tight loops and dead ends.
• Check for obstacles: Remove new obstacles (furniture, toys, branches) that may block the mower's return path.
• Test search wire detection: Start a manual return‑to‑home function if available and observe whether the mower follows the search wire.
• Service sensor: If the mower fails to detect the search wire, the internal search wire sensor or mainboard input may need replacement.
