INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
– To guard against injury, basic
safety precautions should be observed,
including the following:
1.
READ AND
FOLLOW ALL SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
and all the
important notices on the appliance before
using. Failure to do so may result in loss of
fish life and/or damage to this appliance.
2. DANGER
– To avoid possible electric
shock, special care should be taken since
water is employed in the use of aquarium
equipment. For each of the following
situations, do not attempt repairs yourself;
return the appliance to an authorized service
facility for service or discard the appliance.
A.
If the appliance shows any sign of
abnormal water leakage, immediately
unplug it from the power source
.
B.
Carefully examine the appliance after
installation. It should not be plugged in if
there is water on parts not intended to be
wet. If the appliance or any part of it falls into
the water DO NOT reach for it. First unplug
the unit before retrieving.
C.
Do not operate any appliance if it has a
damaged cord or plug. If cord is damaged,
the luminaire should be destroyed.
If the external flexible cable or cord of this
luminaire is damaged, it shall be exclusively
replaced by the manufacturer or his service
agent or a similar qualified person in order
to avoid a hazard. The light source of this
luminaire is not replaceable; when the light
source reaches its end of life the whole
luminaire shall be replaced.
D.
A “drip loop”, shown in the figure, should
be arranged by the user for each cord
connecting an aquarium appliance to the
socket. The “drip loop” is the part of the
cord below the level of the receptacle, or the
connector if an extension cord is in use. This
prevents water from traveling along the cord
and coming into contact with the socket or
power supply. If the plug or socket gets wet,
DO NOT unplug the cord. Disconnect the
fuse or circuit breaker that supplies power to
the appliance then unplug and examine for
the presence of water in the socket.
E.
This appliance is not intended for use
by persons (including children) with
significantly impaired physical or mental
capabilities, unless they have been given
supervision or instruction concerning the
use of the appliance by a person responsible
for their safety. Children should always be
supervised to ensure that they do not play
with the appliance.
F.
To avoid injury, do not contact moving
parts or hot parts such as heaters, reflectors,
lamp bulbs and the like. Max. Operating
Temperature 35°C.
G.
Always unplug the appliance from the
outlet when not in use, before putting on
or taking off parts, re-lamping and before
cleaning. Never yank the cord to pull the
power supply from the outlet. Grasp the
power supply and pull to disconnect. The
use of attachments not recommended or
sold by the appliance manufacturer may
cause an unsafe condition.
Do not use this appliance for any
purpose other than its intended use.
H.
Do not install or store the appliance
where it will be exposed to weather or
temperatures below freezing.

correctly and securely positioned on the
aquarium before operating the appliance.
J.
Read and observe all important notices on
the appliance.
K.
Do not use or mount this appliance in
such a way that the top vents are restricted
or blocked. These vents are necessary to
avoid overheating and ensure safe operating
temperatures.
L.
If the use of an extension cord is necessary,
an extension cable with the proper electrical
rating should be used. An extension cable
rated for less amperage or wattage than the
appliance rating may overheat. Care should
be taken to arrange the cable so that it will
not be tripped over or pulled.
CAUTION: Use only the transformer
supplied with this unit to power the
lighting system.
