Gardena SILENO 'Lifted': robot mower lift sensor has tripped
Risk level
Medium
Proceed carefully and stop if the check is unclear.
Urgency
Medium
Quick answer
The SILENO lift sensor has been enabled because the body was lifted. Switch the robot off, check the body moves freely on its chassis and remove objects that lift it, or put an island around them. If it continues, see an authorised service technician.
Safety first
Stop and check this first
- Before lifting or tilting the SILENO: push STOP, hold ON/OFF for 3 seconds until the keypad indicator goes out and wear protective gloves. Do not lift it while it is parked in the charging station. Never defeat the lift sensor, the alarm or the PIN, and do not clean it with a high-pressure washer.
Safe checks you can perform
- Objects where the warning appears
- Body free on the chassis
- Cleaning underneath

What a technician must be able to justify
Technician visit
These are the steps they must carry out and show you. Tick them as they work: if steps are skipped, do not accept a part swap.
These are not instructions for opening or handling the equipment yourself. They are the checks that should support a technical conclusion.
Lift sensor diagnosis
What they doIf the message persists, the Gardena authorised technician checks the body suspension and the lift sensor.
They must show youthe sensor test with the robot on the ground and lifted.
In writingthe cause found, any part replaced and why.
Safety test after the repair
What they doWhen finished, the technician checks the robot detects being lifted and stops, and that it works on the lawn without the message.
They must show youthe robot stopping when lifted.
In writingthe test done, the result and the date.
Before accepting a part or repair
Nothing has been shown yet. Do not accept a part swap based on the code alone.
Follow these steps
Note: Follow the documented order. An error code identifies the affected system, but it does not prove by itself which part has failed.
Objects where the warning appears
- Who:
- you.
- How:
- walk the area where the robot stopped and look for roots, stones, edges or toys that could lift the body; remove them or put the boundary wire around them as an island, as the manual says.
- Result that matters:
- an area the robot crosses without being lifted.
- If there was an object:
- remove it and start the robot again.
- If nothing is there:
- check that the body moves freely.
- Evidence to keep:
- photo of where it stopped and of the object.
Evidence: Gardena SILENO city and SILENO life operator's manual 2023 (1298-022)
Body free on the chassis
- Who:
- you, wearing protective gloves.
- How:
- push STOP, hold ON/OFF for 3 seconds until the indicator goes out and, with the robot out of the station, gently move the body by hand to see whether it moves freely on the chassis without sticking.
- Result that matters:
- a body that moves and returns to place without rubbing.
- If it sticks because of dirt:
- clean it with a moist cloth and weak soap solution, as Gardena says.
- If it moves freely and the message continues:
- contact authorised service.
- Evidence to keep:
- short video of the body movement.

Cleaning underneath
- Who:
- you, wearing protective gloves.
- How:
- with the robot off, lift it onto its side as the manual says and brush the chassis and blade disc; check that nothing caught there is pushing the body upwards.
- Result that matters:
- a clean underside with nothing wedged in.
- If something was wedged:
- remove it, set the robot upright and switch it on.
- If it is clean and the message repeats:
- see a Gardena authorised service technician.
- Evidence to keep:
- photos of the underside before and after.
Robot off (keypad indicator out) and gloves on: the blades are exposed.

What it means
In the 2023 operator's manual for the Gardena SILENO city and SILENO life (including smart versions), 'Lifted' means the lift sensor has been enabled because the product has been lifted. Gardena says to make sure the product body can move freely and to remove, or create an island around, objects that can cause the body to be lifted. If the problem stays, it refers you to an authorised service technician. It is a different message from the 'Mower alarm lifted' alarm. Other models may differ.
