BATTERY REPLACEMENT

battery almost flat

BATTERIES NOT INCLUDED

Only use new 1,5V Alkaline AA (LR6) batteries, with an expiry date exceeding one year and that have never been used. Replace the batteries at the beginning of each season. When the batteries are completely flat, the control unit automatically stops its functions and closes the valves. Replace the batteries within 2 minutes of removing them, otherwise programming will be lost. Every time you remove the batteries, the timer resets the current time to the time the  batteries are inserted. Never replace the batteries during irrigation, otherwise the water will continue to flow at the end of the cycle.

RAIN SENSOR (optional)

Remove the bridge connector on the timer (1). Insert the Rain Sensor connector (2A).
Irrigation will not start if the container is full (at least 5 mm of rainfall). The irrigation cycle in progress will stop within 1 minute of the container being filled. Alternatively, insert the Rain Sensor RF interface (2B). The irrigation cycle will  not start if the container is full. The irrigation cycle in progress will stop within 5 minutes of the container being filled.

INSTALLATION

Do not install the water timer inside valve boxes, below ground level or indoors. Do not use the water timer with operating pressures lower than 0.5 bar (7.3 psi) or higher than 10 bar (145psi).

PROGRAMME SELECTION

Press “M” repeatedly until the display shows:
– D : watering run time of the selected programme (the number of minutes watering takes place);
Press “F” repeatedly until the display shows:
– E : watering frequency (time between two successive watering cycles).

Within 10 seconds of selecting the program, press the START key just once.
Once the key has been released and after 3 flashes of “0 h”, automatic watering will start immediately.

Within 10 seconds from selecting the program, press the START key until the display shows C, the automatic watering start time delay of the selected line from 1 to 23 hours.

EXAMPLE OF USE

At 20.30 I want to program the timer to water for 10 minutes every 12 hours, starting from 21.30, I therefore:

The timer only works in manual mode, what should I do?

Read this instruction manual carefully and keep it handy for future reference. This device has been designed and manufactured exclusively for the setting of watering time by adults with experience and knowledge.
Any use other than that described in this manual is considered improper: the manufacturer acknowledges no liability for damages arising from improper use, which will also void the warranty.
Do not power the water timer with sources other than those specified. It is good policy – when the water timer is used for the first time – to make certain that the programmes run correctly. Do not use the water timer with chemicals or  liquids other than water.
At the end of the season, before the winter frosts, disconnect the timer from the tap, remove the batteries and store the timer in a sheltered place, away from damp, where the temperature does not fall below 3°C.
