Original instructions.

For safety reasons, children and young

people under 16 as well as anyone who is

not familiar with these operating instructions

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 Computer is intended for

private use in domestic and hobby gardens, exclu-

sively for outdoor use, to control sprinklers and

watering systems. The Water Computer can be used

for automatic watering during holidays.

DANGER! The GARDENA Water Computer

must not be used for industrial purposes or

in conjunction with chemicals, foodstuffs,

easily flammable and explosive materials.

GARDENA Water Computer FlexControl

1. SAFETY

Battery:

To ensure the Water Computer runs safely,

only a 9V alkaline manganese battery

(alkaline) type IEC 6LR61 must be used!

In order to stop the Water Computer 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 Computer 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

Computer 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 60 °C at the display) the

LCD display may extinguish. This does not affect

the program in any way. When the computer cools

down the LCD display illuminates again.

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

vOnly use clear fresh water.

The minimum operating pressure is 0.5 bar, the

maximum operating pressure is 12 bar.

Avoid tensile strain.

vDo not pull the hose connected to the Water

Computer.

If the controller is removed when the valve

is open, the valve remains open until the con-

troller is fitted again.

DANGER!

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 med-

ical implant manufacturer before you operate the

product.

DANGER!

Small parts can be easily swallowed. There is also

a risk that the polybag can suffocate toddlers. Keep

toddlers away when you assemble the product.

2. FUNCTION

With the Water Computer, the garden can be

watered fully automatically up to 3 times a day

at any time of day (every 8 hours). Sprinklers,

a sprinkler system or a drip head watering system

can be used for watering.

The Water Computer carries out watering fully auto-

matically according to the set program and can

therefore also be used during holidays. Early in the

morning or late in the evening, evaporation and

therefore water consumption is lowest.

Controls [Fig. F1]:

The watering programme is easily entered using the

controls.

A watering program comprises the watering start

time, duration and frequency.

into the watering programme.

Note:

If the soil is damp enough, the programme will be

stopped, or a programme will be prevented from

starting. Manual operation is possible at all times.

1. Remove controller qfrom the housing of

the Water Computer (see 3. PUTTING YOUR

WATER COMPUTER INTO OPERATION

“Insert battery”).

2. Place soil moisture sensor in the watered area

– or – place rain sensor (with extension cable if

necessary) outside the watered area.

3. Run the sensor cable zthrough the opening of

the housing.

4. Disconnect the cover uand insert the sensor
