THE IDEAL GROWING POSITION FOR HYDROGARDEN IS
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
On a sturdy, level and water-tolerant surface.
Near a standard electrical outlet.
Away from children or pets.
Away from direct source of heat (e.g. a stove) or cold draft during Winter.
Far enough from wash basin or sink to avoid it falling in water.
Away from direct sunlight, but ideally not in complete darkness either. Allowing some natural light in
addition to provided light source is beneficial.
Note that ideal temperature for the plants to grow is 16-26° Celsius, so during Summer heat move
them to a cooler part of the house, and during Winter chill into a warmer location. The light provided is
LED so it does not provide heat, only light.
Only connect the HydroGraden in indoor areas to a properly installed AC 240V socket with an
appropriate safety switch. Any piggyback plug or ordinary plug should be fitted with the appropriate
safety switch.
Fully unwind extension cords before use as they may overheat. Ensure that you don't stack plugs, it
can overload the power point and cause a fire.
USER MAINTENANCE
Doing electrical work yourself can be dangerous. People have been killed doing electrical work
unsafely. By law any electrical installation work myst be done by a licensed electrician. They must test
the work and give you a uniquely numbered Certificate of Compliance Electrical Work to show it has
been tested and ensure it complies with the regulations.
DO NOT SUBMERGE
Do not immerse the cord or any of the electrical equipment in water or other liquid, and unplug the
cord from any electrical outlet when not in use. If liquid spills onto the HydroGarden, unplug it and
have it checked before using again.
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
Never touch the mains plug with damp hands. Never pull the mains plug out of the socket by the
mains cord, always do so by taking hold of the mains plug. Always switch the unit off and pull the
mains plug out of the socket when you are not using the HydroGarden, cleaning it or in the event of a
fault. Disconnect power before servicing or replacing lights. Only use the HydroGarden as described
in this user manual. Any other use is deemed improper and may result in damage to property or even
personal injury. The HydroGarden is not a children’s toy and children using it must be supervised by
an adult at all times. Always treat a 'tingle' or slight shock as a warning. Never touch an appliance
which causes a 'tingle' or shock until it is repaired by an approved repairer.
FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY
The HydroGarden is not intended for commercial use and is for domestic and personal use only.
Mr Fothergill's Seeds Pty Ltd takes no liability for damage caused by improper or incorrect use.
