domestic and hobby gardens, exclusively for outdoor use, to
control sprinklers and watering systems.
The GARDENA Water Computer must not be used for industrial purposes or in conjunction with chemicals, foodstuffs,
easily flammable and explosive materials.
2. For Your Safety

The Water Computer may only be operated
using a rechargeable battery (accu) (8,4 V
150 mAh PP3 /R22 / 9 V block /NH22).
v Do note use alkali-manganese batteries.
Charging can cause them to leak out over
the solar cells.
v To retain the programs in the memory
during the winter, ensure that the solar

cells are not covered over and that the
Water Computer is not stored in a place
which is permanently dark.
Setting up
Warning! The Water Computer must not be
used indoors.
v Only use the Water Computer outdoors.
The Water Computer may only be set up verti-
cally with the sleeve nut to the top to prevent
water penetrating into the battery compartment.
The minimum water output to ensure that
the Water Computer functions correctly is
20 -30 l/h.
For example, at least 10 x 2-litre Drip Heads
are required to control the Micro-Drip-System.
At high temperatures (over 60°C at the display) the LCD display may extinguish. This
does not affect the program in any way.
When the computer cools down the LCD
display illuminates again.
The max. temperature for the water flow is
40 °C.
v Only use clear fresh water.
The minimum operating pressure is 0,5 bar,
the maximum operating pressure is 12 bar.
Avoid tensile strain.
v Do not pull the hose connected to the
Water Computer.
Programming
v Program the Water Computer with the tap
turned off.
In this way you can avoid getting wet when
trying out the manual On / Off function (man.
