persons without supervision. Young children should be
supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
Warning: To guard against injury, basic safety precautions
should be observed, including the following:
1. Read and follow all safety instructions before using this appliance.
2. Danger: To avoid possible electric shocks, special care should be
taken since water is employed in the use of terrarium equipment. For
each of the following situations do not attempt repairs yourself. Return
the appliance to an authorised service facility for service or discard the
appliance.
a) If the electrical components of the appliance get wet, unplug the
appliance immediately (non immersible equipment only).
b) If the heater shows any sign of abnormal water leakage, immediately
unplug it from the power source.
c) Carefully examine the heater after installation. It should not be
plugged in when there is water on parts which are not intended to be
wet.
d) Do not operate any terrarium product if it has a damaged cord or plug,
or if it is malfunctioning, or dropped or damaged in any manner.
e) The external flexible cable or cord of this motor cannot be replaced. If
the cord is damaged the motor should be scrapped.
A “drip loop” (See the diagram) should be arranged by the user for each
cord connecting an aquarium component to a receptacle. The drip loop
is the part of the cord below the level of the receptacle or the connector
if an extension cord is used. It is used to prevent water traveling along
the cord and coming in contact with the receptacle. If the plug or
receptacle does get wet, do not unplug the appliance. Disconnect the
fuse or circuit breaker that supplies the power to the appliance, then
unplug and examine for presence of water in the receptacle.
3. Close supervision is necessary when the appliance is used by or near
children.
4. Always unplug the heater from the electrical outlet, when not in use,
before putting on or taking off parts, before any type of maintenance,or
cleaning. Never yank the cord to pull it from the outlet. Grasp the plug
and unplug to disconnect.

use of attachments that are not recommended or sold by the heater
manufacturer may cause the product to be unsafe. This is not
recommended.
6. Do not install or store the heater where it will be exposed to weather
or temperatures below freezing.
7. Make sure any component mounted on or in a tank is securely
installed before operating it.
8. Read and observe all the important notices on the heater.
9. Ensure input voltage is the same voltage as your local power supply.
10. If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with a proper rating should
be used. Care should be taken to arrange the cord so that it will not be
tripped or pulled.

G.F.C.I
(Ground fault circuit interrupter) & surge protector is
recommended for all electrical appliances.

when inserting/removing the power cord from the receptacle.
