The Applications Range of Your Pump
GARDENA Floating Pumps have been designed for private use.
They are not designed for operating watering tools and systems.
The pumps may be used indoors as well as outdoors.
A GARDENA Floating Pumps have not been designed for con-
stant use in the industrial sector. Corrosive, easily combustible,
aggressive or explosive substances (e.g. petrol, petroleum, nitro
thinner) as well as salt-water or food / drinking water must not
be pumped.
A For Your Safety
The transformer should be operated via a residual current de-
vice with a residual current rating of
≤ 30 mA (DIN VDE 0100-
702 and 0100 -738). Please ask your electrician for his advice.
Mains power cables should not have a smaller cross-section
than a rubber sheathed cable of the designation H05 RNF.
Extension cables must meet the requirements of DIN VDE 0620.
In Austria power cables should correspond to ÖVE-EM 42,
T 2 (2000) /1979 § 22 according to § 2022.1. According to this
standard pumps used in swimming pools and ponds should
only be operated via an isolating transformer. Please contact
your electrician.
In Switzerland mobile appliances which are used outdoors,
must be connected via a residual-current device.
Before operating the pump, look to see if there is any damage
of the pump (esp. regarding power cable and plug). A damaged
pump must not be used. In case of damage, please have the
pump checked by our GARDENA Service Centre or by an
authorised electrician.

Visual check
Check line voltage. Data indicated on the type plate must match
technical data of the mains supply.
The pump must not be operated when there are people in the
water.
Swimming pools and garden ponds should be designed accord-
ing to international and national design regulations. Please
consult a professional electrician.
Do not use the power cable to carry the pump or to pull the plug
out of the socket. Protect the power cable from heat, oil and
sharp edges.
Please unplug the pump after operation and before carrying out
any maintenance works.
The temperature of the liquid used must not be below 4 °C or
above 35 °C.
Sand and other abrasive substances in the liquid cause in-
creased wear and reduce the output of the pump.

exclusively for the use with 12 V low voltage. When connected
to 230 V your life is at risk! Operate the pump only with the
delivered transformer.
Do not expose the transformer to direct sunlight.
Ensure that the transformer is positioned in a place safe from
flooding and at least 2 m away from the edge of the pond.
