IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
– To guard against injury, basic safety precautions should be
observed, including the following:
1.
READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
and all the important notices on the appliance before using. Failure to do so
may result in loss of fish life and/or damage to this appliance.
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 shows any sign of abnormal water leakage, immediately
unplug it from thepower source.
B. Carefully examine the appliance after installation. It should not be plugged
in if there is water on parts not intended to be wet.
If the appliance or any
part of it falls into the water DO NOT reach for it. First unplug the unit
before retrieving.
C. 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.
D. 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) 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
travelling along the cord and coming in contact with the receptacle. If the
plug or receptacle does get wet,
DO NOT
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. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with
significantly impaired physical or mental capabilities, unless they have been
given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a
person responsible for their safety. Children should always be supervised to
ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
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 while 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. Do not install or store the appliance where it will be exposed to weather or
temperatures below freezing.
FOR INDOOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY. DO NOT
IMMERSE.
7. Make sure the appliance is mounted correctly and securely positioned on
the aquarium before operating the appliance.
8. 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.
9. The socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily
accessible.

INSTALLATION AND USAGE:
LAMP & TAPE MOUNTING BRACKET INSTRUCTIONS
Surface Preparation
Surface temperature for application should be no lower than 60°F degrees (16°C) and not higher than 85°F degrees
(29°C). If climate will not permit, move unit to appropriate conditions. Area to receive tape should first be thoroughly
cleaned with a liquid detergent and warm water solution. Rinse with clea nwater and dry completely. A final wipe with
50/50 alcohol/water is highly recommended for best results (use a clean, lint-free cloth). Ensure surface is dry and
residue free before proceeding.

The position of the mounting bracket cannot be changed after it has been affixed. Do not place the mounting
bracket over the back wall paper. It must be applied directly onto the aquarium glass.
INSTALL LIGHT AFTER 24 HOURS TO ALLOW THE TAPE BOND TO CURE PROPERLY
NOTE : FAILURE OF PROPER TAPE BONDING MAY BE ATTRIBUTED TO ONE OF FOUR ISSUES:
1. Poor surface preparation and/or application.
2. Poor adhesive contact: exposed adhesive side of tape being touched or contaminated.
3. Insufficient pressure being applied.
4. Lamp hung too soon, tape not fully cured.
FOR AQUARIUMS WITH TOP FRAMES.
Maximum frame height: 30 mm (1 1/8").
1. Remove the protective film from the lamp mounting bracket. Affix the mounting bracket to the
outside of the tank indesired location; aligning the rim of the mounting bracket with the tank
frame and press firmly applying pressure while gently twisting to ensure proper adhesion.
FOR AQUARIUMS WITHOUT TOP FRAMES.
