Watering programs [ Fig. O1 ]:
The watering programs can be set by the rotary switch

Note:
Art. 1407: A drip head dropper has a flow rate of
approx. 2 litres per hour.
Art. 13158: Each outlet of a drip tube has a flow rate
of approx. 1.6 litres per hour.
To connect the drip heads to the supply pipes
[ Fig. I3 ]:
CAUTION!
The first drip head should be placed directly
above the water surface in the container (see
Fig. O2 / O3). This serves to ventilate the system
and prevents any after-running of the water after
the system has been switched off, especially in the
case of drip heads located below the water level.
