Warning: To guard against injury, basic safety precautions
should be observed, including the following:
1. Read and follow all safety instructions before using this
appliance.
2. Danger: To avoid possible electric shocks, special care
should be taken since water is employed in the use of aquarium

repairs yourself. Return the appliance to an authorised service
facility for service or discard the appliance.
a) If the light falls into water, do not reach for it, unplug it and

damaged, it has to be replaced by the manufacturer, it’s
service agent or similarly qualifi ed persons in order to avoid
a possible hazard.
A “drip loop” (See the diagram) should be arranged by the
user for each cord connecting the electrical appliances in
the aquarium to a receptacle. The drip loop is the part of the
cord below the level of the receptacle. It is used to prevent
water traveling along the cord and coming in contact with
the receptacle. If the plug or receptacle 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 receptacle.
3. Close supervision is necessary when the appliance is used
by or near children.
4. Always unplug all electrical appliances in the aquarium
from the electrical outlet, when not in use, before putting on or
taking off parts, before any type of maintenance, or cleaning.
Never yank the cord to pull it from the outlet. Grasp the plug
and unplug to disconnect.
