WARNING: To guard against injury, basic
safety precautions should be observed,
including the following:
READ ALL SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE.
CAUTION: 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 to repair yourself: return the appliance
to an authorized service facility for service or
discard the appliance.
General Guides:
If the appliance falls into water, do not reach
for it! First unplug it and then retrieve it. If the
electrical components of the appliance get wet,
unplug the appliance immediately.
Safety
Information
Carefully examine the appliance after
installation. It should not be plugged in if there
is water on parts not intended to be wet.
Do not operate any appliance if it has a
damaged cord or plug, or if it is malfunctioning
or if it is dropped or damaged in any manner.
To avoid the possibility of the appliance plug or
electric outlet getting wet, position aquarium
stand and tank to one side of a wall mounted
outlet to prevent water from dripping onto
the outlet or plug. A “drip loop”, shown in the
Figure at the right should be arranged by the
user for each cord connecting an aquarium
appliance to an outlet. The ”drip loop” is the
part of the cord below the level of the outlet or
the connector if an extension cord is used, to
prevent water travel along the cord and coming
in contact with the outlet.
If the plug or the outlet
do get wet, do not unplug
the cord. Disconnect the
fuse to the circuit breaker
that supplies power to the
appliance. Then unplug and
examine for the presence
of water in the outlet.
