WARNING: PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING
SAFETY INFORMATION FIRST.
DANGER: To avoid a possible electric shock, ensure all electrical devices are switched
off when carrying out maintenance. Take extra care when handling a wet aquarium.
Do not attempt repairs yourself; return the appliance to the place of purchase for
service or dispose of the appliance.
• To avoid the possibility of the appliance plug or socket
getting wet, position the aquarium cabinet and tank to
one side of a wall mounted socket to prevent water from
dripping onto the socket or plug. You should create a “drip
loop” for each cord connecting an aquarium appliance to
a socket. The “drip loop” is that part of the cord below
the level of the socket, or the connector. Use an extension
cord, if necessary, to prevent water travelling along the
cord and coming into contact with the socket.
• Always unplug an appliance from an outlet when not in
use, before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning. Never pull the cord itself to remove
the plug from the outlet. Hold the plug and pull to disconnect.
• If the plug or socket does get wet, DO NOT unplug the cord. Disconnect the fuse or circuit breaker
that supplies power to the appliance. Then unplug the device and examine for presence of water in
the socket.
• Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
• Do not use an appliance for anything other than its intended use. The use of attachments not
recommended or sold by the appliance manufacturer may cause an unsafe condition.
• Do not install or store the appliance where it will be exposed to the weather or to temperatures below
freezing point.
• Make sure an appliance mounted on a tank is securely installed before operating it.
Read carefully all the important notices on the appliance and the corresponding instruction manual.
NOTE: 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 cannot be tripped over or pulled accidentally.
WARNING: Do not use the holes in thie rear of the glass to lift, move or hold the aquarium at any time.
DRIP LOOP
IMPORTANT
It is important to ensure that any water that is spilled
onto the cabinet is wiped off and dried immediately.
Failure to do so will invalidate the warranty.
