EHEIM aquaball 60 Manuel D'instructions page 8

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 below, should be ar-
ranged by the user for each cord connecting an aquarium ap-
pliance to a receptacle.
The "drip-loop" is that part of the cord below the level of the re-
ceptacle, or the connector if an extension cord is used, to pre-
vent water traveling along the cord and coming in contact with
the receptacle.

If the plug or socket does get wet,
Disconnect the fuse or circuit breaker that supplies power to
the appliance. Then unplug and examine for presence of water
in the receptacle.
c ) Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by
or near children.
d ) To avoid injury, do not contact moving parts or hot parts such
as heaters, reflectors, lamp bulbs, and the like.
e ) Always unplug an appliance from an outlet when not in use, be-
fore putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning. Never
yank cord to pull plug from outlet. Grasp the plug and pull to
disconnect.
f ) Do not use an appliance for other than intended use. The use of
attachments not recommended or sold by the appliance manu-
facturer may cause an unsafe condition.
g ) Do not install or store the appliances where it will be exposed
to the weather or to temperatures below freezing.
h ) Make sure an appliance mounted on a tank is securely installed
before operating it.
i ) Read and observe all the important notices on the appliance.
j ) If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with a proper rating
should be used. 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 will not be tripped over or pulled.
k ) This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the
other). As a safety feature, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet
only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse
the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician.
Never use with an extension cord unless plug can be fully in-
serted. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
Exception: This instruction may be omitted for an appliance
that is not provided with a polarized attachment plug.
