READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1.
and all important notices on the appliance before using. Failure to do so may result in loss of fish life and/or damage to this appliance.
2. DANGER – To avoid possible electric shock, special care should be taken since water is employed in the use of aquarium
equipment. For each of the following situations, do not attempt repairs yourself; return the appliance to an authorized service
facility for service or discard the appliance.
A. If the appliance shows any sign of abnormal water leakage or if RCD (or GFCI- Ground Fault Current Interrupter) switches off
disconnect the power supply cord from main power supply and remove the aquarium pump from water.
B. Carefully examine the appliance after installation. It should not be plugged if there is water on parts not intended to be wet.
C. Do not operate any appliance if it has a damaged cord or plug, or if it is malfunctioning or it is dropped or damaged in any
manner. The power cord of this appliance cannot be replaced; if the cord is damaged, the
appliance should be discarded. Never cut the cord.
D. To avoid the possibility of the appliance plug or receptacle getting wet, position the ap-
pliance to one side of a wall mounted receptacle to prevent water from dripping onto the
receptacle or plug. A "drip loop" (see illustration) should be arranged by the user for the cord
connecting appliance to a receptacle. The "drip loop" is that part of the cord below the level
of the receptacle or the connector if an extension cord is used, to prevent water travelling
along the cord and coming in contact with the receptacle. If the plug or receptacle does get
wet, DON'T unplug the cord. Disconnect the fuse or circuit breaker that supplies power to
the appliance. Then unplug and examine for presence of water in receptacle.
3. WARNING – Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been
given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for
their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
4. To avoid injury, do not touch moving parts or hot parts.
5. CAUTION – Always unplug or disconnect all appliances in the aquarium from electricity supply before placing hands in water,
before putting on or taking off parts and whilst the equipment is being installed, maintained or handled. When inserting or removing
the aquarium pump from the water, always pull out the main electricity plug. Never yank cord to pull plug from outlet. Grasp the
plug and pull to disconnect. Always unplug an appliance from an outlet when not in use.
