1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
and all the important notices on the appliance before
using. Failure to do so may result in damage to the unit.
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 falls into the water, DON’T reach for
it! First unplug it and retrieve it. If electrical
components of the appliance get wet, unplug the
appliance immediately.
B. 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 mains and remove pump from water.
C.
Carefully examine the appliance after installation. It
should not be plugged if there is water on parts not
intended to be wet.
D.
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.
E.
To avoid the possibility of the appliance plug or
receptacle getting wet, position the appliance to one
side of a wall mounted receptacle to prevent water
from dripping onto the receptacle or plug. A “drip
loop” (see illustration 1) 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 traveling
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.
Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is
used by or near children.
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.
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.
6.
This is an aquarium filter-pump. Do not use this filter-
pump for other than intended use (i.e.: do not use in

attachments not recommended or sold by the
appliance manufacturer may cause an unsafe
condition.
• Do not use this filter-pump in swimming pools or
other situations where people are immersed.
• This filter-pump is suitable for use in water
temperatures up to 35 °C.
• Do not use this filter-pump with inflammable or
drinkable liquids.

This filter-pump is suitable for INDOOR use only. Do not
install or store the appliance where it will be exposed
to the weather or to temperatures below freezing.
8.
Make sure that the filter-pump is securely installed
before operating it. Do not allow pump to run dry.
9.
If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with proper
rating should be used. A cord rated for less amperes
or watts than the appliance rating may overheat. Care
should be taken to arrange the cord so that it will not
be tripped over or pulled. The connection should be
carried out by a qualified electrical installer.
