OWNER’S MANUAL
Aquatop’s BREZA AC/DC-PLUS Air Pump is an essential piece of
equipment for aquarists of all levels. With the included AC power
supply, the AC/DC-PLUS can be used as a standard aquarium air
pump, but also offers an ingenious design which combines an AC
power failure sensor with integral back-up battery power! In the
unfortunate event of a power outage or when the standard electri-
cal connection is lost, our battery powered air pump automatically
switches over to back-up battery power when the AC power sensor
cord is plugged in, providing a temporary lift support system for
your aquatic creatures.
The BREZA AC/DC-PLUS’ versatile design also makes it a portable
air pump, perfect for fish bait buckets or for transporting aquatic
creatures. The BREZA AC/DC-PLUS Air Pump will help keep your
fish alive and healthy each day and will protect your aquarium’s
inhabitants during a power outage, even if you’re not around to turn
it on.
To guard against injury, basic safety precautions should be observed,
