Personal safety
DANGER! Risk of suffocation!
Small parts can be easily swallowed. There is also a risk that the poly-bag can suffocate toddlers. Keep toddlers away when you assemble the product.

DANGER! Risk of injury due to hot water!
If the electronic control is defective or if the water supply on the intake side of the pump fails, any water remaining in the pump may heat up, generating a risk of injuries caused by hot water on leakage.
→Disconnect the pump from the mains, let the water cool (approx. 10 – 15 min.) and secure the water supply on the intake side before putting into operation again.
Do not use the product while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while you operate the product may result in serious personal injury.
When connecting the pump to the water supply system, the country-specific sanitary regulations must be observed to prevent water not of drinking water quality being drawn back in.
When water flows through the pump it is no drinking water anymore.
When using the product, cover hair and do not wear scarves and other loose items of clothing.
Make sure that no children or unauthorised persons are within reach of the pump and the pumped medium without supervision.
In order to avoid dry-running of the pump, take care that the end of the suction hose is always submerged into the water.
→Before each operation, fill the pump with liquid to be pumped (approx. 2 to 3 l).
The pump must be located on solid, even ground, protected from flooding. Take care that the pump cannot fall into water.
Very fine sand can pass through the integrated filter (mesh size 0.45 mm) and cause accelerated wear in the hydraulic parts.
→For sandy water, you should additionally use the GARDENA Pump Preliminary Filter, art. 1730 (mesh size 0.1 mm).
The temperature of the pumped liquid must be between 2 °C and 35 °C.
Only stow the product in temperatures between 2 °C and 70 °C.

INSTALLATION

DANGER! Electric shock!
Risk of injury due to electric current.
→Disconnect the product from the mains before you install the product.

Installation location [ Fig. I1 ]:

The pump must be installed in a location with sufficient ventilation in the area of the ventilation slots. It must be at a distance of at least 5 cm from the walls. No dirt contamination (e. g. sand or soil) may be sucked in through the ventilation slots.
Set up the pump so that it is prevented from slipping and that an appropriately large collecting vessel for draining the pump or the system can be placed under the drain screw 1.
Install the pump at a safe distance (min. 2 m) from the pumping medium.
If possible, install the pump higher than the surface of the water to be pumped. If this is not possible, install a vacuum-resistant shut-off device between the pump and the suction hose to allow the integrated filter to be cleaned.
If the system is permanently installed, appropriate shut-off devices must be installed on the input and output sides. Important for maintenance and cleaning work on the pump or for shutdown, for example.

Connections:
CAUTION!
The GARDENA connection pieces on the intake and delivery sides may only be tightened by hand. Check whether the seal ring is present and undamaged before screwing the suction hose onto the suction inlet. When using metal connections, damage could occur on the connection thread due to inappropriate assembly. Therefore, screw on the connection fittings with the upmost care. Use sealing tape only for sealing metallic connection fittings.

Suction side:
Do not use modular water hose components on the suction side! A vacuum-tight suction hose must be used e. g.:

GARDENA Suction Hose Art. 1411 / 1418
GARDENA Bore Hole Suction Hose Art. 1729
GARDENA Suction Hose sold by the metre with GARDENA Hose Clamp Art. 7192 / 7191.

If very fine dirt is present, we recommend the use of a GARDENA pump preliminary filter Art. 1730 / 1731 in addition to the integrated filter.
To reduce the pump repriming time, we recommend to use a suction hose with backflow preventer, which prevents the suction hose emptying automatically when the Pump is switched off.

Important for fixed installation:
For greater suction heads, use a suction hose with a small diameter (3/4″).

Pressure side:
A pressure-resistant hose must be used on the pressure side, e. g.:

GARDENA Garden Hose (3/4″) Art. 18113 with GARDENA Connection Set Art. 1752.

Important for fixed installation:
If the product is permanently installed in an enclosed space, only flexible hoses (e.g. reinforced hoses) may be used for connecting the service water supply, rather than rigid piping. Flexible hoses will reduce the noise level and prevent damage caused by pressure surges. Install fixed pipes at an upward gradient on the first 2 m only. To avoid damage to the thread, ensure careful and accurate installation when using metal connections.

To connect the suction hose [ Fig. I2 ]:

Screw the suction hose fitting 3 onto the suction inlet 4 and tighten it by hand.
Slide the suction hose 2 onto the suction hose fitting 3 and secure it e.g. with a GARDENA Hose Clamp Art. 7192 / 7191.
For suction head exceeding 4 m secure the suction hose (e. g. by fastening it to a wooden post).

The pump and the suction hose are relieved from the weight of the water.

To connect the pressure hose [ Fig. I3 ]:

The pressure hose can be connected either to the delivery side 33.3 mm (G1)-thread of the 120° swivelling connection 5 and / or of the horizontal connection 8.

Screw the tap connector 7 onto the pressure outlet 5 / 8 and tighten it by hand.
Connect the pressure hose with hose connector 6 onto the tap connector 7.

OPERATION

DANGER! Electric shock!
Risk of injury due to electric current.
→Disconnect the product from the mains before you fill the pump.

To start the Automatic Home & Garden Pump [ Fig. O1 / O2 ]:

** NOTE:**
The specified maximum self-priming level (see 8. TECHNICAL DATA) is reached only when the pump is full and the pressure hose is held up high directly upstream of the pressure output during the first self-priming phase. This ensures that the pumped medium cannot leak from the pressure hose. When using a full suction hose with a check valve, it is not necessary to hold up the pressure hose.

Unscrew the lid 9 of the filter chamber with the spanner A provided.
Slowly fill in the liquid to be pumped via the filler connection 10 up to the overflow (approx. 2 to 3 l) until the water level no longer drops under the suction side inlet or the water flows out at the horizontal connector.
With fixed installation: Unscrew the cover 14 and fill with liquid until it flows towards the horizontal connector.
Empty any water remaining in the delivery hose so that the air can escape during filling and priming.
Open any shut-off devices in the delivery line (watering accessories, tap, etc.) so that air can escape before the priming procedure begins.
With fixed installation: If the delivery line cannot be emptied due to fixed installation, unscrew the cover 14 . Considerable amounts of liquid may escape. Please keep a sufficiently large receptacle at hand for collection.
Tighten the lid 9 of the filter chamber up to the stopper a.
Without fixed installation: Lift up the delivery hose just behind the pressure outlet.
Plug the power plug of the connecting cable into a mains socket.
Push the on / off switch 11 to position I.
The on / off switch lights up.
During initial operation, the display language must be selected after the pump is switched on.
Select the desired display language with the left or right button and confirm with the centre button The display shows “Start pump now?”.
Push the left button .
The pump starts after approx. 2 seconds. The display shows “Suction in progress” and the GARDENA sun is rotating in the display during the suction process. The suction process can take up to 6 min. If no water is pumped afterwards, the Automatic Home & Garden Pump switches off and the display shows „ERROR 2“ (see 7. TROUBLESHOOTING“).
Close shut-off devices in the delivery pipeline again when the pump begins to deliver water continuously.
The display shows “Flow” and “Pressure”.

The pump turns off automatically approx. 10 seconds after closing the shut- off device.

The pump is ready for operation and the display shows “Standby”.

Electronic control:
The pump features an electronic controller.
If the pressure level falls below the start-up pressure, the pump is started automatically.
As soon as the water supply is no longer required, the pump is switched off automatically.

Low quantity programme and leakage warning:
Leakage warning:
In the event of a leakage or a dripping tap, the pressure constantly falls below the turn-on pressure and the pump switches itself on and off continuously.
If the pump is constantly switched on and off, the pump switches off automatically to prevent unwanted water leakage (error 4 “Leakage warning” is displayed).

Low quantity programme
To prevent the pump from switching off earlier when used with low quantity of water (e.g. washing machines or drip irrigation), the duration of the low quantity programme until the leakage warning is activated can be set (see 4. MENU SETTINGS / Leakage warning).
Switching the pump on and off cyclically during the small quantity program has no effect on the service life of the pump.

Use of washing machines
(Leakage warning set to 60 min.):
Upon completion of the low quantity water supply cycle in washing machines, the 60-minute operating interval of the low quantity programme is automatically reset to normal operation of the pump and allows a trouble-free use of the washing machine for > 60 minutes.

Use without low quantities of water
(Leakage warning set to 2 min.):
If no low quantities of water are required, the leakage warning can be reduced to 2 minutes. This enables maximum protection in the event of a leakage.

For continuous drip irrigation (Leakage warning set to OFF): If the low quantity programme is to be used for more than 60 minutes, the leakage warning can be deactivated (OFF).
Caution! The pump is then no longer protected by the leakage warning.
