Possible Causes

Timer disabled in settings, Incorrect date/time on mower, Active rain or frost delay feature, Safety lock or child lock enabled

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Ensure the mower is on the station and blades are stopped while adjusting settings.

  • Check timer: In the menu or app, verify that the mowing schedule is enabled and that start/stop times are correctly set for the desired days.
  • Set clock: Confirm the mower’s internal clock and date are correct.
  • Review weather settings: If your Gardena model has rain or frost sensors, check whether these are delaying operation and adjust sensitivity if needed.
  • Check safety lock: Disable any child lock or safety lock that may prevent automatic start.

After correcting settings, observe the mower at the next scheduled start time to confirm operation.
