Hi Karo
That usually indicates that your battery has been been damaged from deep discharge.
At least of the cells is probably under 3V and therefore, for safety reasons, the charger will not charge the battery.
As a general rule, you should always store LiPo batteries charged (as they slowly discharge by themselves over time) and immediately stop using the Robot and charge the battery when it sounds the low battery alarm.
Another thing that users should not do is leave the battery connected to the charger when this is not plugged in to the wall plug.

Pedro.
