Important Safeguards
To guard against injury, basic safety
precautions should be observed, including the
following:
1. Read and follow all safety instructions and
important notices in these instructions as well as
on the product itself.
. This appliance is not intended for use by
children or infirm persons without supervision.
Young children should be supervised to ensure
that they do not play with the appliance.
. To avoid possible electric shocks, 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 authorised service facility for
service or discard the appliance.
a. If the appliance or any electrical component of
the appliance (non-immersible equipment only)
falls into the water or gets wet, do not reach for it.
Unplug it and then retrieve it.
b. If the appliance shows any sign of abnormal
water leakage, immediately unplug it from the
power source.
c. Carefully examine the appliance after installation.
It should not be plugged in if there is water on parts
which are not intended to be wet.
d. Do not operate the appliance if it has a damaged
cord or plug, or if it is malfunctioning, or dropped
or damaged in any manner.
. A “drip loop” (see graphic) should be arranged
for each cable connecting an aquarium to a power
supply. The drip loop is the part of the cable below
the level of the power supply. It prevents water
travelling down the cable and coming into contact
with the power supply. If the plug or the socket does
get wet, do not unplug the appliance. Disconnect
the fuse or circuit breaker that supplies the power
to the appliance, then unplug and examine for
presence of water in the socket.
5. Always unplug the appliance from the electrical
outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking
off parts, before any type of maintenance or
cleaning.
6. Never yank the cable to pull it from the socket.
Pull the plug carefully to disconnect.
7. Do not use the appliance for reasons other than
the intended use. The use of attachments that are
not recommended or sold by the manufacturer
may cause the product to be unsafe. This is not
recommended.
8. Do not install or store the appliance where it
will be exposed to weather or temperatures below
freezing.
9. Make sure any component mounted on a tank
is securely installed before operating it.
10. Ensure input voltage is the same voltage as
your local power supply.
11. If an extension cable is used it should have the
proper rating. Care should be taken to arrange the
cord so that it will not be tripped or pulled.
1. A G.F.C.I (Ground fault circuit interrupter) &
surge protector is recommended for all electrical
appliances.
1. Ensure your hands are dry when turning the
power switch on/off and when inserting/removing
the power cable from the socket.
1. If you are in any doubt about the electrical
installation or safety of this product you must
consult a qualified electrician.
