Intended use:
The GARDENA Water Control is intended for private
use in domestic and hobby gardens, exclusively
for outdoor use, to control sprinklers and watering
systems. The Water Control can be used for automatic watering during holidays.
DANGER! The GARDENA Water Control must
not be used for industrial purposes or in
conjunction with chemicals, foodstuffs, easily
flammable and explosive materials.
Battery:
To ensure the Water Control runs safely,
only a 9V alkaline manganese battery
(alkaline) type IEC 6LR61 must be used!
In order to stop the Water Control from failing
because of a weak battery if you are away for
along time, the battery must be replaced when
the battery symbol flashes.
CAUTION! If the control section is
removed when the valve is open, the
valve remains open until the control section
is reattached.
EN
Setting up:
The Water Control may only be set up vertically
with the sleeve nut to the top to prevent water
penetrating into the battery compartment.
The minimum water output to ensure that the
Water Control 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 70 °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.
Avoid tensile strain.
v Do not pull the hose connected to the
Water Control.
DANGER! Cardiac arrest!
This product makes an electromagnetic
field while it operates. This field may under some
conditions interfere with active or passive medical
implants. To decrease the risk of conditions that
can possibly injure or kill, we recommend persons
with medical implants to speak with their physician
and the medical implant manufacturer before you
operate the product.
DANGER! Risk of suffocation!
Small parts can be easily swallowed. There
is also a risk that the polybag can suffocate toddlers. Keep toddlers away when you assemble the
product.

Fig. G:
3 Select schedule | 4 Confirm schedule
Fig. H: Set = Sensor connected
Fig. I: 1 Active watering | 2 Change watering duration |
3 Stop active watering at any time
The saved watering schedule can be activated or
deactivated by pressing on / off. By pressing the
button, manual watering can be started or
stopped at a desired time (see fig. I ).
Watering tip: For pot plants that required small
amounts of water at regular intervals, short watering cycles are ideal in combination with a drip
irrigation system.
Connect soil moisture sensor (optional) fig. D:
After a sensor has been connected, the “set sensor” display will appear. By selecting 3-drip / 0-drip
the sensor response will be activated / deactivated.
After successful activation, the “set” display will
disappear (see fig. H).
If the soil is sufficiently moist, watering will be
immediately stopped or prevented.
