Troubleshooting

Q1: Why the Bluetooth water timer didn’t turn on/off at preset time?

  • Programming is incorrect
  • The water pressure is too low
  • Particles of dirt or debris stuck in the valve
  • More than one start time is programmed with overlapping schedules
  • Manual watering is on
  • Faulty valve
  • The batteries were low
  • The faucet is off.

Q2: Why does Bluetooth keep dropping connection?

  • The Bluetooth of the water timer is currently in sleep mode, please wait 5-10 seconds, and the device will automatically reconnect. Or scroll down to refresh the home page of the APP, or disconnect the Bluetooth from your phone and turn it on again
  • If the device has been connected to other mobile phones, please disconnect first.
  • Make sure the device battery is charged and place the phone as close to the device as possible.
  • Please note that you don’t need to stay connected once you set up your schedule. The device will always keep your watering settings and work automatically according to the schedule.

Q3: Why is the water valve out of little water?

If you are a gravity feed system such as a rain barrel system, then it won’t work and will keep low water pressure. Gravity feed has no real pressure when dealing with a rain barrel. It needs pressure measuring.

Warm Tips

  • The best range for connection and control is within 49.2ft in the open area.
  • The bluetooth water timer does not support Alexa & Google Voice or remote control.
  • Do not use your timer when the air temperature is below 40°F(4.5°C), the timers should be removed from the hose faucet and stored indoors to avoid potential frozen damage.
  • A filter can trap dirt particles, please clean the filter regularly and replace it if worn.
  • Please replace batteries when the low battery indicator appears on the display. When replacing the power unit, please make sure that the water timer is dry.
  • To prevent leakage, make sure that the water timer is tightly attached to the faucet and hose, add a rubber washer and thread seal tape if necessary.

Note:

  1. The water flow is reduced by half when the two zones are turned on at the same time.
  2. The water flow in two zones may be different if you turn on one zone first and then turn on the other zone.
