Check the plug-in power supply housing for damages before usage. Don’t use a damaged plug-in power supply.
Please regularly check the connecting line.
Before using, always subject the pump to a visual inspection.
A pump which is damaged should not be used. In the event of damage, have the pump checked by GARDENA Service.
Damaged connecting cables to the pump can only be replaced by GARDENA Service.
Disconnect the plug-in power supply from the outlet socket for all work on the Holiday Irrigation.

INSTALLATION

DANGER! Risk of injury!
Risk of injury when the product starts accidentally.
→ Disconnect the product from the mains before you install the product.

A video of the setting processes is available here:

– Drip distributor (J):
There are 3 drip distributors (J) with different daily application rates.
– Light grey (a):
For plants with low water requirements: 15 ml/day
– Medium grey (b):
For plants with average water requirements: 30 ml/day
– Dark grey (c):
For plants with high water requirements: 60 ml/day If a plant has a water requirement of over 60 ml per day, you will need to use more than one drip pipe for the plant.

Preparation:

Group your plants in 3 groups according to their water requirements.
Use planters or saucers so that any excess water will be collected.
Allocate the individual drip distributors to the groups.
Place the water reservoir close to the plants and a power supply.

Fig. (1):
Each drip distributor must be individually connected to the pump.

To calculate the water quantity:
[Quantity of plants x daily water requirements in ml (15, 30 and/or 60) ] x days

CAUTION!
The plants must be positioned above the water level of the water reservoir to prevent the water of the reservoir from flowing out via the supply pipes.
