Batteries:
To ensure the Sensor runs safely, only 2 x alkalimanganese (alkaline)
batteries type LR6 (AA) (Mignon) must be used.
2. FUNCTION
With the GARDENA Soil Moisture Sensor the soil moisture level is taken into
consideration for watering. Depending on the soil moisture, measurements
are taken at intervals of between 30 and 60 minutes and sent to the irrigation
control.

The batteries are not included in the scope of delivery.
The Sensor must only be operated with 2 x alkalimanganese (alkaline)
batteries type LR6 (AA) (Mignon).
The battery life is approx. 1 year. Depending on the outside temperature and
the frequency of measurement and transmission, the battery life may vary.
CAUTION!
Rechargeable batteries should not be used!
DANGER!
There is a risk of explosion if batteries are not replaced in the proper
manner. See 6. STORAGE for information on how to dispose of used
batteries.
To prevent failure of the 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 6 month in total.
If the batteries are flat and are not replaced, the connected Irrigation control
will function with the watering program selected.
