1. SAFETY WARNINGS
IMPORTANT!
Read the operator's manual carefully before use
and keep for future reference.
Battery:
To ensure the Water Control runs safely, only
a 9 V 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 a long time, the battery
must be replaced when the battery display still shows
only 1 bar.
Initial Operation:
The Water Control must not be used indoors.
v Only use the Water Control outdoors.
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 correct function-
ing of the Water Control is 20 – 30 l/h per outlet.
E. g. for controlling the Micro-Drip System, at least
10 pieces 2-litre Drip Heads are required.
At high temperatures (over 60 °C at the display) the
LCD display may extinguish. This does not affect the
program in any way. When the Water Control cools
down the LCD display illuminates again.
The max. temperature for the water flow is 40 °C.
v Only use clear fresh water.
The minimum operating pressure is 0.5 bar, the maximum
operating pressure is 12 bar.

Children must be supervised to ensure that they do
not play with the product. Never operate the prod-
uct when you are tired, ill or under the influence of
alcohol, drugs or medicine.
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 has two separate out-
lets and can be used e. g. for automatic irrigation
during your holiday.
DANGER!
The GARDENA Water Control must not
be used for industrial purposes or in con-
junction with chemicals, foodstuffs, easily
flammable and explosive materials.
Avoid tensile strain.
v Do not pull the hose connected to the Water Control.
Programming:
v Program the Water Control with the tap turned off.
In this way, you can prevent unintentional water
penetration.
You can remove the control unit from the housing to
program the Water Control.
If the controller is removed when the valve is open, the
valve remains open until the controller is fitted again.
DANGER!
Cardiac arrest!
This product makes an electromagnetic field
while it operates. This field may under some con-
ditions interfere with active or passive medical
implants. To decrease the risk of conditions that
can possibly injure or kill, we recommend per-
sons 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.
v Keep toddlers away when you assemble the
product.
