Initial Operation; Automatic Operation; Manual Operation - Conrad 55 12 20 Bedienungsanleitung

Electrical connection
• Connect the power plug to a safety plug installed according to the regulations.
• Turning the pump on / off is done via the integrated switch.
• The motor of the pump is protected via an integrated automatic temperature switch. In case of overheating, the
temperature switch turns the pump off automatically. Once the pump is cooled off it turns itself on again automatically.
Absolutely avoid the dry running of the pump. (Operating the pump without water in the casing of the
pump).
In case of an electrical power shortage, disconnect the pump from the mains by unplugging the mains
plug.

7. Initial operation

a) Automatic operation
Connect the safety power plug of the pump with a safety plug. As soon as the float switch floats (lies horizontally), i.e.
when correctly fixed, from a water depth of approximately 7 cm, the pump starts to run. If the water level falls below
approx. 5 to 6 cm (float switch "tilts" forward) the pump switches off automatically.
When disconnecting the pump from the mains never pull on the power line itself, always pull the dry
power plug which must be completely dry.
If not in use, never hang the pump on the power line as this might damage or destroy it.
In case the pump pumped fluids, which leave residue, it should be thoroughly cleaned after use with
clean water.
Sand, mud or suspended sediment in the pumped water can affect its delivery rate.
Make sure that no particles bigger than approximately 5 mm get sucked as this can block the rotor
turbine.
b) Manual operation
The pump can also be operated manually, i.e. the float switch is "laid" (via the retainer clamp at the side of the relay) or
it is kept up. Set the pump in the water then connect the power plug to the mains - the power plug must be completely
dry. The pump includes a device which exhausts the air from the pump automatically so that within a relatively short
time the pump can run in full delivery rate.
The minimum water depth can fall short when the pump is operated manually. An automatic cutoff does
not occur. Therefore, disconnect the pump from the mains as soon as the water depth falls below 5 cm.
Otherwise, the pump runs dry too long and can be damaged.
