Visual check
v Before operating the pump, first make
a visual check to ensure there is no damage
to the pump (especially regarding power
cable and plug).
A damaged pump must not be used.
v In case of damage, please have the pump
checked by our GARDENA Service Centre
or by an authorised electrician.
Safety in operation
Protect the pump from rain. Do not use
the pump in a wet or moist area.
In order to avoid dry-running of the pump,
take care that the end of the suction hose is
always submerged into the water.
v Before each operation, fill the pump to
overflowing with approx. 2 to 3 l of water
to be pumped!

Very fine sand can pass through the integrated
filter (mesh size 0.45 mm) and cause accelera-
ted wear in the hydraulic parts.
v For sandy water, you should additionally use
the GARDENA pump pre-filter, art. no. 1730
(mesh size 0.1 mm).
When using the pump for domestic water
supply, please adhere to the local water and
sewerage regulations. In addition observe
the regulations of DIN 1988.
v If necessary, contact your local water
authority.
Warning! This pump produces an electro-
magnetical field during operation. This field may
under some circumstances interfere with active
or passive medical implants. To reduce the risk
of serious or fatal injury, we recommend
persons with medical implants to consult their
physician and the medical implant manu facturer
before operating this pump.
The Electronic Pressure Pump is equipped with an electronic
control which automatically turns on the pump when the cut-in
pressure has fallen and automatically switches off when no
more water is extracted.
The low quantity programme allows for trouble-free use of, for
example, modern washing machines or drip irrigation systems,
even with low water flow. Operating interval: Up to 60 minutes
(leakage warning may be triggered after 60 minutes).
Note: The cyclical activation and deactivation of the
Electronic Pressure Pump in small amount mode is due
to the system design and does not have any impact on
pump life.
For irrigation: If the low quantity programme is to be used for
more than 60 minutes, irrigation must be disrupted for at least
5 minutes before the end of the 60 minute period. The small
amount programme can then be used for a further 60 minutes.
Use of washing machines: Upon completion of the minimum
amount water supply cycle in washing machines, the 60-minute
operating interval of the low quantity programme is automatically
reset to normal operation of the Electronic Pressure Pump and
allows a trouble-free use of the washing machine for > 60 minutes.
The pump is equipped with a faults diagnostics system where
various disturbance states can be determined by the Info LED
(see 8. Troubleshooting).
