One month old 2020 levo S works displays error code of not recognizing battery about every fourth or fifth time I power it up. To power up I have been holding the button down until the LEDs finish lighting up completely. As advised in the manual, I have been turning it off, opening the charging port then closing it and turning it back on and then it always works. Anybody else having this problem? Does this sound routine or something to have checked out?

Try actually cleaning with a cotton bud the inside of the charging port and giving a light oil. Some recommend dielectric grease but I use a little crc. watch you don't use an oil that will deteriorate the O ring.

...something to have checked out.
Seems there is a contact problem.
BTW: with my 2019 Levo there‘s no need to press ON button until the led-flashing-routine is finished - just press about 1 sec on mine, then start-up-routine comes up.

First off you should inspect the charging point connection visually for any debris and clean both sides with contact cleaner. As pointed out above you may also be creating a fault by long pressing the power button. You should release it as soon as the blue light sequence starts.
