The guarantee/warranty will expire if damage is incurred resulting from non-compliance with
these operating instructions. We do not assume any liability for consequential damage!

a) General Information
• The unauthorized conversion and/or modification of the product is prohibited for safety and
approval reasons (CE). Furthermore, this will render the guarantee/warranty void!
• The product is not a toy. Children cannot judge the dangers involved when handling electrical
devices.
• The product corresponds to protection type IPX8/IPX4 (protection type of the pump = IPX8,
protection type of the connection unit = IPX4).
• The product is designed according to protection class I. Only a proper protective contact
mains socket of the public mains must be used as a voltage source (for the operating voltage
of the deep-well pump, see chapter „Technical Data").
• Do not leave packaging material unattended. It may become a dangerous toy for children.
• Handle the product with care; impacts, shock or fall even from low heights will damage it.

b) Site of Setup, Connection

• Install or operate the product in a way that it is out of reach of children.
• Using the product in or close to garden ponds, wells, swimming pools, fountains, etc. is only
permissible if the product is operated by a leakage current protection switch (FI-protection
switch) with a nominal error current of <=30 mA).
If persons are present in a pool, swimming pond or garden pond, the product must not be ope-
rated in it.
In Austria, the product must only be installed and operated in or close to swimming pools and
garden ponds if a suitable ÖVE-tested safety separating transformer is switched in front of it in
addition to the leakage current protection switch.
• There must not be any ambience temperatures around or below freezing (<0 °C) at the opera-
ting site. The water in the deep-well pump would freeze and the higher volume of ice destroy
the deep-well pump. Store the product dry and protected from frost in winter.
• If you are using an extension cord or if placement of cables to the deep-well pump is required,
these cables must not have a cross section of less than the deep-well pump's. Only use exten-
sion lines with protective ground that are suitable for outdoor use.
• Protect the mains line of the deep-well pump against cold/heat, oil/gasoline and sharp edges;
do not step on the mains line, do not drive on it (e.g. wheelbarrow, bicycle, car). Do not bend
the mains line and do not place any objects on it.
