DANGER: 

Before servicing a pump, always 

shut off the main power breaker and then 

unplug the pump. Make sure you are not standing in 

water and are wearing insulated protective sole 

shoes, under flooded conditions. Contact your local 

electric  company  or  a  qualified,  licensed  electrician 

for disconnecting electrical service prior to pump 

removal.

WARNING: 

Verify that the voltage and 

frequency of the pump shown on the 

nameplate correspond to those available on the 

mains.

1.  The installer must make sure that the electric 

system is grounded in accordance with the law 

in force.

2.  The plug and connections should be protected 

from  water  splashes.  Before  using  the  pump, 

always inspect it visually (especially power 

cable and plug).

3.  Do not use the pump if it is damaged.

4. 

If the pump is damaged, have it inspected by 

an authorized service center only.

5.  Make sure that electric connections are 

protected from inundation. Protect the plug and 

the power cable from heat, oil or sharp edges.

WARNING: 

The power cable must be 

replaced by qualified personnel only.

Grounding

The plug of the power cable has a double grounding 

contact,  so  that  grounding  can  be  performed  by 

simply inserting the plug

Overload Protection:

This pump series has a built in thermal protection 

switch. The pump stops if an overload condition 

occurs. The motor restarts automatically after it has 

cooled down.
