INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION AND USE
Important Safety Information - Please Read Carefully
Caution:
Always isolate from the mains electricity before installing or carrying out
any maintenance to the top up system.
• Power to the top up system must be supplied through a Residual Current Device (RCD)
with a rated residual operating current not exceeding 30mA.
• To ensure the top up system functions correctly, the IR sensors, the anti-siphon valve and the pump
must be cleaned regularly to ensure they do not become clogged or covered with debris or detritus.
• The IR sensor(s) must always be installed in an upright position with the power cable pointing upwards.
Failure to do so will result in operating problems and water overflowing from your sump or aquarium.
• Pump rating: 12Vdc unless otherwise marked.
• Do not operate any appliance if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is malfunctioning, or if it has been
dropped or damaged in any way.
• This unit is designed to be used indoors and is not suitable for any outdoor applications.
• Ensure the Auto Top-up IR System is safely positioned before operating.
• Install the control unit outside of the aquarium cabinet when there is a sump present and away from
any area where it may get splashed with water.
• Always leave a drip-loop in the cables to prevent water running down the cable and reaching the power
source and controller (see below).
• Dispose of this unit responsibly. Check with your local authority for disposal information.
