1. Where to Use Your GARDENA Indoor Fountain Pump
GARDENA Indoor Fountain Pumps have been designed for pri-
vate use around your house. They are not designed for operating
watering tools and systems. Pumps RP 240 / RP 300 / RP 600
must only be used indoors. Pump RP 420 is part of Fountain Set
Art. 7767 and is suitable for outdoor use.
GARDENA Indoor Fountain Pumps have not been designed
for constant use in the industrial sector. Corrosive, easily
combustible, aggressive or explosive substances (e.g.
petrol, petroleum, nitro thinner) as well as saltwater or food
/ drinking water must not be pumped.
Correct use:
Please note:
2. Safety instructions
Electrical safety:
DANGER ! Electric shock !
VVAlways disconnect the fountain
pump from the mains before
undertaking any work.
The pump should be operated via a residual
current device with a residual current rating of
≤30 mA (DIN VDE 0100-702 and 0100-738).
The pump must be placed on solid, even
ground.
vPlease consult a qualified electrician for
advice.

17
GB
Mains power cables must not have a smaller
cross-section than a PVC cable of the
designation H03 VV (RP 420 of the
designation H05 RNF). Extension cables must
meet the requirements of DIN VDE 0620.
Data indicated on the type plate must match
technical data of the mains supply.
Please unplug the fountain pump after
operation and before carrying out any
maintenance works.
The fountain pump must not be operated
when there are people in the water.
Swimming pools and garden ponds should
be designed according to international and
national design regulations.
vPlease consult a qualified electrician for
advice.
Before operating the fountain pump, look to
see if there is any damage to the fountain
pump (esp. regarding power cable and plug).
The connection cable of the pump cannot be
replaced. If the cable is damaged the pump
must be disposed of.
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.
For Austria:
Pumps for use in swimming pools and
ponds may only be operated via an isolating
transformer.
vPlease consult a professional electrician.
For Switzerland:
In Switzerland mobile appliances which are
used outdoors must be connected via a
residual-current device.
User instructions:
Never let the pump run dry; running
dry generates heat and will damage
the pump.

18
GB
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 increased wear and reduce the
output of the pump.
Please observe the local noise prevention
regulations.
