1. Where to use Your GARDENA Large-Area Pop-Up Irrigation
The GARDENA Large-Area Pop-Up Irrigation forms part of the GARDENA Irrigation System and is designed to be used solely outdoors in domestic and private gardens to water lawns and garden areas.
It is not permitted to use the large-area pop-up irrigation for industrial or commercial applications and in conjunction with chemicals, foodstuffs, highly combustible or explosive substances.
2. Safety instructions
Rechargeable battery:
The large-area pop-up irrigation unit contains rechargeable lithium-ion batteries, which are automatically charged via a built-in solar cell.
When the rechargeable battery is almost flat (e.g. due to soiling of the protective panel of
the solar cell), irrigation will only cover a mini­mal range.
To fully charge the flat rechargeable battery it will take approx. 4 days of sunshine (8 hours each) or some 10 days with cloudy weather until the battery is fully charged again.

Information about usage:
The large-area pop-up irrigation should not be combined with other sprinklers in one irrigation line.
If there is a change in the range of the large­area pop-up irrigation, the pressure conditions will change in the irrigation line, so altering the range of the other sprinkler.
Only use separate individual water
channels for watering. Do not install in series with other sprinklers.
The ranges selected may vary with major fluctuations in pressure in the water pipe.
Pressure Tank Units (with pressure chamber) to supply water to the sprinkler are not recom­mended as they cause fluctuations in pressure with the switch-on/ off pressure.
Sand and other abrasive substances in the water will result in faster wear and reduced output.
v With water containing sand a Central Filter
(e.g. GARDENA Central Filter Art. 1510) should be used.
Do not run over sprinklers installed level with ground with a lawn rake or aerator.
3. Function
The GARDENA Large-Area Pop-up Irrigation AquaContour automatic can be used to water individual garden areas. A jet of water slowly turns in a circle to the end of the programmed sector, stops, and turns back again, altering the spray range depending on the ranges programmed. The control panel is used to programme the irrigation contour points.
1
Menu button: Choose between programming mode (Set)
and operating mode (Auto).
2
“+” button: Increases irrigation range.
3

5
Set LED: Indicates programming mode.
6
Auto LED: Indicates automatic operating mode.
The LED flashes every 10 seconds.
4. Initial Operation
Correct location:
A Circle water distribution:
With circle water distribution the large-area pop-up irrigation should be positioned as centrally as possible in the watering area to ensure that the irrigation width is not greatly affected by external influences such as wind.
B Sector water distribution:
With sector water distribution the large-area pop-up irrigation should be positioned right at the edge of the watering area (e.g. at the corner of the house).
The large-area pop-up irrigation must be positioned at a point in the watering sector from which it is possible to water the entire garden area required. The maximum range is 9 m (with 2 bar flow pressure at the irrigation unit).
The large-area pop-up irrigation must be installed in a position which is sunny all year round to ensure the solar cell receives sufficient light.

Select watering sector:
Install Large-Area Pop-Up Irrigation:
Incorrect location:
1:
No obstacles (e.g. walls, trees, etc.) should be located in the watering sector. It must be possible to access every contour point of the areas to be watered in a straight line. With the maximum range the spray height can reach approx. 5 m.
2:
The minimum range is 2.5 m (at 2 bar). With circle water distribution the large-area pop-up irrigation must therefore be located 2.5 m from the edge in all directions (A). If this is not possible the large-area pop-up irrigation should be positioned at the edge and the watering area will be a circle sector (B).
Before installing the large-area pop-up irrigation, you must set up an above-ground test to check whether the large­area pop-up irrigation can actually water the required area at this location.
The large-area pop-up irrigation has a 3/4 female thread and is connected to the 25 mm Connecting Pipe
8
Art. 2700 / 2701
using the GARDENA L-piece 7Art. 2781.
1. Install the above-ground test set-up and check whether the large-area pop-up irrigation can water the required area (see
5. Operation).
2. If the large-area pop-up irrigation has watered the required area in the test, install a pack of coarse gravel
9
approx. 20 cm x 20
cm x 20 cm in size underneath the unit.
This ensures proper functioning of the drain valve.
3. Install the upper edge of the large-area pop-up irrigation level with the turf.
This prevents any damage when mowing the lawn.
v Take off transportation protective plastic film from the protective
panel of of the solar cell.
5. Operation
A watering sector from 25° to 360° can be selected. To prevent areas being watered unintentionally (e.g. house), the sector should first be selected roughly (slightly too small).
Roughly select sector:
1. Close water supply.
2. Turn the nozzle head
0
by hand to the middle of the watering
sector (e.g. P4).
3. Roughly select watering sector: turn right sector stop
z
R
to
right-hand side (e.g. P9) and left sector stop
z
L
to left-hand side
(e.g. P2).
Re-adjust sector:
1. Open water supply.
2. Watch watering sector and re-adjust the sector-stops
z
L
and
z
R
according to the sector limits (P1 and P10) until the change in direction matches the required irrigation limits. If watering in a complete circle, the two sector stops
z
L
and
z
R
must be completely pushed together between P1 and P10.
Remove protective plastic film of solar cell:
