Manutenção

When the battery level drops below 5%, a low-battery alert will appear on the display. The valve will automatically shut off to prevent water leakage. Replace batteries promptly to ensure continuous operation.

Periodically check the filter screen located in the brass inlet for debris. Remove the timer from the faucet, carefully pull out the filter, rinse it under running water, and reinsert it. This helps maintain optimal water flow and prevents clogging.

Before the first frost, disconnect the timer from the faucet and hoses. Drain any remaining water from the unit. Store the timer indoors in a dry, frost-free location to prevent damage from freezing temperatures.
