GARDENA Water Control Flex

Translation of the original instructions.

For safety reasons, children and young

people under 16 as well as anyone who is

not familiar with these operating instruc-

tionsshould not use the product. Persons with

reduced physical or mental abilities may use the

product only if they are supervised or instructed by

a responsible person. Children must be supervised

to ensure that they do not play with the product.

Never operate the product 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 can be used for auto-

matic watering during holidays.

DANGER! The GARDENA Water Control must

not be used for industrial purposes or in

conjunction with chemicals, foodstuffs, easily

flammable and explosive materials.

1. SAFETY

Important!

Read the operator’s manual carefully before use

and keep for future reference.

Battery:

To ensure the Water Control runs safely,

only a 9V 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 symbol flashes.

Setting up:

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 that the

Water Control functions correctly is 20 – 30 l/h.

For example, at least 10 x 2-litre Drip Heads are

required to control the Micro-Drip-System.

At high temperatures (over 70 °C at the display)

the LCD display may extinguish. This does not

affect the program in any way. When the com-

puter cools down the LCD display illuminates

again.

The max. temperature for the water flow is 40 °C.

Avoid tensile strain.

vDo not pull the hose connected to the

Water Control.

CAUTION! If the control section is

removed when the valve is open, the

valve remains open until the control section

is reattached.

DANGER! Cardiac arrest!

This product makes an electromagnetic

field while it operates. This field may under some

conditions interfere with active or passive medical

implants. To decrease the risk of conditions that

can possibly injure or kill, we recommend persons

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 tod-

dlers. Keep toddlers away when you assemble the

product.

and setting

3Select schedule | 4Confirm schedule

Please note: If starting in the past and at a fre-

quency of 4, 6, 8, 12 hours, the start time will

be automatically adjusted after input.

Watering tip: For pot plants that required small

amounts of water at regular intervals, short water-

ing cycles are ideal in combination with a drip

irrigation system.

The saved watering schedule can be activated or

deactivated by pressing ON/ OFF.

3Stop active watering at any time

By pressing the button, manual watering can

be started or stopped at a desired time (see fig. I).

Soil Moisture Sensor v(Fig. D and H):

After a soil moisture sensor is connected, the

word “Sensor” will be displayed – this can take

up to 1minute.

Once the soil is sufficiently moist, awatering

operation is interrupted or a schedule is disabled

so that it cannot be activated. This does not affect

active (manual) watering.

watering is not to be carried out (see GARDENA

Soil Moisture Sensor Operating Instructions).

There are 3 levels to choose from.

– During normal operation, the currently measured

level is displayed constantly.

nals that the soil is moist – thereby preventing

watering – is selected via the number of levels.

– 0 dots for loamy soil

v Sensor response when soil is quite dry.

– 3 dots for sandy soil

v Sensor response when soil is very moist.

Soil Moisture Sensor, Art. 1188,

(optionally available,

models up to 2020)

The soil moisture level at which a watering

will not be carried out as per the schedule

can be set using the switching point controller

on the soil moisture sensor (see GARDENA Soil

Moisture Sensor Operator’s manual).
