Safety information
• The pump is designed for operation using direct current (DC). Under no circumstances should the pump be connected to the mains power supply with alternating current (AC).
• Do not strike the solar module with the hands, tools or other objects. Damaged solar modules cannot be repaired and must be disposed of in an environmentally-friendly manner.
• Never open the housing of the device or the parts belonging to it if this is not expressly indicated in the instructions for use.
• The pump may not be operated without water, this can lead to irreparable damage.
• This device is suitable for pumping water with a temperature of min. 5°C to max. 40°C.
• The pump is not intended for operation in saltwater or for the transport of potable water.
• The device is not suitable for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been
supervised or received instructions regarding the use of the device by a person responsible for their safety. Children are to be supervised in order to ensure that they do not play
with the device.
• If the solar module is set up without a module holder, then adequate stability must be ensured in order to prevent damage to the solar module.
• Keep small parts and packaging materials away from children. Hazard due to risk of suffocation!
Intended use
This product is designed exclusively for private use in small garden ponds. Direct sun radiation is required for the operation of the pump. The pump can transport water as soon as the
pump and solar module are connected with one another (if provided with sun radiation).
The pump does not have an on/off switch. In order to interrupt the pump operation, the cable connection between the solar module and the pump must be disconnected
Assembly and initial operation
1. Completely unroll the connection cable for the pump.
2. Push the riser tubes onto the pump and then attach one of the fountain jets.
3. Place the pump into the pond. Avoid a position directly on the base of the pond, as too much dirt would be sucked in by the pump and it would quickly become soiled.
4. Assemble the module holder (tubes, union nut and ground spike) and attach this to the rear side of the solar module.
6. Now connect the plug on the pump with the socket of the solar module and screw the union nut tight. Caution! The plug is protected against polarity reversal, therefore do not
apply force when plugging in.
7. Position the solar module in a sunny, shade-free place
