READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.
–
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 by yourself; return the
appliance to an authorized service facility for service or discard the appliance.
–
If the appliance falls into the water DON'T reach for it. First unplug the appliance immediately (Non-
immersible equipment only)
–
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.
–
Do not operate any appliance if it has a damaged cord or plug, orif it is malfunctio-
ning or if it is 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 mounted receptacle to prevent
water from dripping onto the receptacle or plug. A "drip loop", shown in the fi-
gure, should be arranged by the user for each cord connecting the aquari-
um appliance to a receptacle. The "drip loop" is that part of the cord below the
level of the receptacle, to prevent water travelling along the cord and coming in
contact with the receptacle. If the plug or receptacle 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.
–
Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
–
To avoid injury, do not contact moving parts.
–
Always unplug an appliance from an outlet when not in use, before putting or taking off parts, and before
cleaning. Never yank cord to pull plug from outlet. Grasp the plug and pull to disconnect.
–
Do not use an appliance for other than intended use. The use of attachments not recommended or sold by
the appliance manufacturer may cause an unsafe condition.
–
Do not install or store the appliance where it will be exposed to the weather or to temperatures below fre-
ezing.
–
Make sure an appliance mounted on a tank is securely installed before operating it.
–
Read and observe all the important notices on the appliance and its cord.
–
If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with a proper rating should be used. A cord rated for less ampe-
res 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.
