READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1. 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 to repair
by yourself; return the appliance to an authorized service facility for service or discard the
appliance.
a) If the appliance shows any sign of abnormal water leakage, immediately unplug it from the
power source.
b) Carefully examine the appliance after installation. It should not be plugged in if there is water
on parts not intended to be wet.
c) 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.
d) 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 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, DO NOT 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.
2. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
3. To avoid injury, DO NOT contact moving parts or hot parts such as heaters, reflectors, lamp bulbs,
and the like.
4. Always unplug an appliance from an outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts,
and before cleaning. Never yank cord to pull plug from outlet. Grasp the plug and pull to
disconnect.
5. 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.
6. DO NOT install or store the appliances where it will be exposed to the weather or to temperatures
below freezing.
7. Make sure an appliance mounted on a tank is securely installed before operating it.
8. Read and observe all the important notices on the appliance.
9. 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.
