WARNING: PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING 

SAFETY INFORMATION FIRST.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION - READ CAREFULLY

DANGER: 

To avoid a possible electric shock, ensure all electrical devices are 

switched off when carrying out maintenance.  
Do not attempt repairs yourself; return the appliance to the  
place of purchase for service or dispose of the appliance.  

NEVER LOOK DIRECTLY AT AN ILLUMINATED UV BULB

•  To avoid the possibility of the appliance plug or socket  

getting wet, 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. 

•  If the plug or socket does get wet, 

DO NOT unplug the cord

. Disconnect the fuse or circuit breaker that 

supplies the power. 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.

• 

NEVER RUN THE UNIT DRY

 - Only turn on when filled with water.

• 

NEVER SUBMERGE THE UNIT IN WATER

•  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.

•This unit must be earthed when earth wire is fitted.

• Never use a fuse larger than 3 amps on the power lead.

•  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 in the recommended positions and is securely 

installed before operating it.

•    If the quartz sleeve is cracked, replace it immediately. 

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.
