IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING
– To guard against injury, basic safety precautions
should be observed, including the following.
a )
READ AND FOLLOW ALL
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.
b )
DANGER
– To avoid possible electric shock, special care
should be taken since water is employed in the use of aquar-
ium equipment. For each of the following situations, do not
attempt repairs by yourself; return the appliance to an author-
ized service facility for service or discard the appliance.
1 ) If the appliance falls into the water,
DON’T
reach for it !
First unplug it and then retrieve it. If electrical components
of the appliance get wet, unplug the appliance immediately.
(Non-immersible equipment only)
2 ) If the appliance shows any sign of abnormal water leakage,
immediately unplug it from the power source. (Immersible
equipment only).
3 ) Carefully examine the appliance after installation. It should
not be plugged in if there is water on parts not intended to
be wet.
4 ) Do not operate any appliance if it has a damaged cord or
plug, or if it is malfunctioning or has been dropped or dama-
g
e d
in any manner.
5 ) To avoid the possibility of the appliance plug or receptacle
getting wet, position aquarium stand and tank to one side of
a wall-mounted receptacle to prevent water from dripping on-
to the receptacle or plug.
A ”drip-loop”, shown in the figure below, should be arranged
by the user for each cord connecting an aquarium 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 prevents water traveling along the cord and
coming in contact with the receptacle.
If the plug or socket 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 the receptacle.
c ) Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by
or near children.
d ) To avoid injury, do not contact moving parts or hot parts such
as heaters, reflectors, lamp bulbs, and the like.
e ) Always unplug an appliance from an outlet when not in use,
before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning.
Never yank cord to pull plug from outlet. Grasp the plug and
pull to disconnect.
f ) Do not use an appliance for other than intended use. The use
of attachments not recommended or sold by the appliance
manufacturer may cause an unsafe condition.
g ) Do not install or store the appliances where it will be exposed
to the weather or to temperatures below freezing.
h ) Make sure an appliance mounted on a tank is securely in -
stalled before operating it.
i ) Read and observe all the important notices on the appliance.
j ) If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with a 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.
k ) This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than
the other). As a safety feature, this plug will fit in a polarized
outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified elec-
trician. Never use with an extension cord unless plug can be
fully inserted. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
Exception: This instruction may be omitted for an appliance
that is not provided with a polarized attachment plug.
