In addition to the basic safety instructions, also comply with the following instructions to prevent accidents:
Warning! Before performing any installation or maintenance tasks, disconnect the electrical devices
immersed in the pond from the power source by pulling the plug out of the socket outlet. Do not operate the
pump if there are people in the water. Switch off the main fuse of the main domestic power supply, before
unplugging the mains cable, if the connection plug or the main power outlet are wet. Never transport or
suspend the device by the mains cable.
•
Never transport and/or hang up the devices on the power cord.
•
Ensure that the voltage specified on the type plate of the device agrees with the mains voltage.
•
Prior to connecting the device to the mains supply, ensure that the mains cable and the device are not
damaged in any way.
•
The mains cable of the device must form a loop that points downward (DRIP LOOP) to prevent water
from running along the cable and into the socket outlet.
•
The device must have a residual current circuit breaker (RCCB) with a rated residual current of max. 30
mA connected on the line side. Consult a qualified electrician.
•
Do not bury the mains cable in the ground; follow the installation instructions specified in the applicable
local regulations. Consult a qualified electrician.
•
Prior to placing the device in service, ensure that the installation has been properly executed.
•
Install the filter at least 2 meters away from the edge of the pond; ensure that it is attached in such a
manner that it cannot accidentally fall into the water and that the installation area of the filter cannot be
flooded.
•
Do not use or store the device in areas where there is danger of freezing. In winter the device should be
removed, emptied and stored where it is protected against freezing.
•
The temperature of the pumped liquid must not exceed 35°C (max.) and must not under range 5°C.
•
Avoid using the devices with caustic and corrosive liquids.
•
Devices with obvious damage must not be operated.
Attention! Use in garden ponds and the protected area of garden ponds is only permitted if the installation
complies with the valid regulations. Consult a qualified electrician.
DO NOT use the pump in or on swimming pools!
1.2.
UV-C-FILTER
•
Attention! Only use the UVC filter together with the safety transformer included in the scope of delivery.
If there is a defect, the complete UVC unit must be replaced.
•
Warning! Unintentional use of the device or damage to the housing can result in the emission of
dangerous UV-C radiation. UV-C radiation can cause damage to the eyes and skin even in small doses.
Never look directly into the UV-C tube when it is switched on.
•
Warning! Do not operate the UV-C emitter when it is removed from the appliance enclosure.
•
Attention! This device consists partially of glass! Handle with care!
•
Never connect the filter to the public water supply network.
•
The UV filter is not designed for immersion in water. If the device should accidentally fall into the water,
do not, under any circumstances, attempt to get it out of the water, until you have pulled the mains plug
out of the mains socket outlet. Also unplug the mains plug if you determine that the exterior of the device
is wet.
•
Do not let the pump run dry (without water flow). To avoid an overheating of the lamp, please switch of
the lamp if there is no direct water flow.
•
Attention! Temporarily stop the operation of the UVC lamp, while treating the water or fish inside your
pond with additional care products.
1.3.
Pump
•
Install the connection socket in the water-protected area and at least 2 m away from the edge of the
pond.
•
Unplug the mains plug before performing any work on the pump, fountain or pond.
•
Do not operate the pump if there are people in the water (disconnect the pump from the mains supply
beforehand!)
•
Important! If there is damage to the mains cables or the motor housing the complete pump is unusable
and must be disposed of. Repair is not possible because the connecting cable is permanently cast in the
motor housing.
•
This pump is equipped with a permanent magnet, whose magnetic fields could influence pacemakers,
interfere with electrical/electronic components and wipe data carriers.
•
People with pacemakers should always maintain a safety distance of at least 30 cm from the pump.
