LED Indicator Lights Status

All four LEDs blink slowly when Flow 2 Pro is in Standby Mode.
All four LEDs blink quickly when an error has occurred. The two most common reasons are:

• Flow 2 Pro is physically prevented from moving or is experiencing a technical error. Remove any obstacles, then press any button.
  
• The phone is not centered or secure in the phone clamp. This may lead to abnormal motor heating and trigger Flow 2 Pro's overheating protection. Please recenter and secure the phone.
