Now
program your GARDENA

to differentiate using the following
text with regard to Automatic
Water Distributor support between
models with or without “Special
Program”. When program ming
the water computer without the
“Special Program”, it is important
that all 6 pro grammes are pro-
grammed and the numbers of the
programmes (1– 6) of the respec-
tive water outlets on the Automatic
Water Distributor (1– 6) are cor -
rectly ordered. Ensure that with
all 6 programmes the same
watering days are entered.
If you do not use all 6 water out -
lets, the unused outlets must still
be programmed into the com puter
to ensure the Automatic Water
Distributor returns to its original
setting at all times. We recom-
mend a watering run time of
1 minute for all unused outlets.
Please also note the following
hints:

To ensure correct function
of the switch mechanism,
please leave between the end
of one programme and the be -
ginning of the next a gap of
10 minutes. The time gap bet-
ween each programme step
increases to 30 minutes if you
switch from a sealed unused
outlet to the next outlet.
