1. Where to use Your GARDENA Automatic Irrigation Set
The GARDENA Automatic Irrigation Set includes a Water Timer
and a Soil Moisture Sensor. It is designed to be used solely out-
doors in domestic and private gardens and in greenhouses to
control sprinklers and watering systems taking into account the
soil moisture level.
It is not permitted to use the Automatic Irrigation Set for
industrial or commercial applications and in conjunction
with chemicals, foodstuffs, highly combustible or explosive
substances.
2. Safety instructions
Batteries:
For reasons of operational reliability the
Water Timer should only be operated with
one 9 V alkaline battery type IEC 6LR61
and the Soil Moisture Sensor with two 1.5 V
(alkaline) round cells type IEC LR 14.
To prevent failure of the Water Timer / Soil
Moisture Sensor due to weak batteries in
conjunction with a lengthy absence, batteries
should be replaced in due course. This will
depend on the previous operating life of the
batteries and the probable length of absence,
which should not exceed a year in total.
