IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING- To guard against injury, basic safety precautions should
be observed, including the following.
‧ FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY
‧ WARNING! RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK!
‧ DO NOT RUN DRY!
READ AND FOLLOW ALL
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.
‧ DANGER
should be taken since water is employed in the use of aquarium
equipment. For each of the following situations, do not attempt
repairs by yourself. Return the appliance to an authorized service
facility for service or discard the appliance.
‧ If the appliance shows any sign of abnormal water leakage,
immediately unplug it from the power source.
‧ Carefully examine the appliance after installation. It should not be
plugged in if there is water on parts not intended to be wet.
‧ Unplug the appliance from the socket outlet to disable any remote
command.
‧ Do not operate any appliance if it has a damaged cord or plug,
or if it is malfunctioning or has been dropped or damaged in any
manner.
‧ To avoid the possibility of the appliance plug or receptacle getting
wet, position aquarium stand and tank to one side of a wall-mount-
ed receptacle to prevent water from dripping onto the receptacle
or plug. A "drip loop", shown in the figure, 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 receptacle, or the connector if an extension cord is used, to
prevent water traveling along the cord and coming in contact with
the receptacle. If the plug or socket does get wet, DON'T unplug
the cord. Disconnect the fuse or circuit breaker that supplies
power to the appliance. Then unplug and examine for presence of
water in the receptacle.
