F.
To avoid the possibility of the ap-
pliance plug or receptacle getting
wet, position aquarium stand and
tank to one side of a wall mounted
receptacle to prevent water from
dripping onto the receptacle or plug.
A “drip loop”, shown in the Figure at
the right should be arranged by the
user for each cord connecting an
aquarium appliance to a receptacle.
The ”drip loop” is that part of the
cord below the level of the recepta-
cle or the connector if an extension
cord is used, to prevent water travel
along the cord and coming in con-
tact with the receptacle. If the plug or
the receptacle do get wet, DON’T
unplug the cord. Disconnect the fuse to the circuit breaker that
supplies power to the appliance. Then unplug and examine for
the presence of water in the receptacle.

To avoid injury, do not contact moving parts or hot parts
such as heaters, reflectors, lamp bulbs, and etc.
H.
Always unplug an appliance from the outlet when not in
use, before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning.
Never yank the cord to pull plug from the outlet. Grasp the plug
and pull to disconnect
I.
Do not use an appliance for other than intended use. The use
of attachments not recommended or sold by the appliance
