IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS - This manual contains impor-

tant safety and operating instructions for the NexPump.

Follow these important safety precautions. Failure to follow

safety precautions can result in personal injury or damage to

the NexPump.

CAUTION

- To reduce the risk of injury, charge only

lead type rechargeable batteries. Other types of

batteries may burst causing personal injury and damage. 

Do not expose the NexPump System Unit to rain or snow.

Do not install the NexPump System Unit where tempera-
tures will be below freezing (32 degrees Fahrenheit).

Do not charge a battery that may be frozen. Allow battery to sit at

room temperature before connecting to the NexPump.

If an extension cord must be used, make sure

A: That the pins on the plug or extension cord are the

same number, size and shape as those of the    

plug  on the NexPump System Unit. 

B: That the extension cord is properly wired and in

good electrical condition.

C: That the wire size is large enough for the AC        

ampere rating of the NexPump System Unit.

Do not operate the NexPump System Unit if it has received a
sharp blow, been dropped, or otherwise damaged in anyway;
take it to a qualified serviceman.

Do not operate the NexPump System Unit with a damaged
cord or plug – have them replaced or repaired immediately.

Do not disassemble the NexPump System Unit; take it to a
qualified serviceman when service or repair is required.
Disassembly  may result in a risk of electric shock or fire and
void the warranty.

Never  pull directly on any wiring connected to pumps,
battery,  AC power or sensor. Disconnect by pulling on connectors
only.

Never force the connectors out of place, they should disconnect
and connect easily. Some connectors have safety latches, so make
sure they are depressed.
