c) Installation site and connection

• Operate the product in a way that it is out of reach of children.
• The use of the product in or near garden ponds, wells, swimming pools, water fountains or similar is
permitted only if the product is operated via a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) with a rated leakage
current of <= 30 mA.
If there are persons in a swimming pool, swimming pond or garden pond, then the product must not be
operated.
In Austria, the product may be operated in or near the swimming pools and garden ponds only if a
suitable ÖVE-tested safety isolating transformer is connected upstream in addition to the ground fault
circuit interrupter.
For other countries, please observe the applicable regulations.
• In the place of operation the ambient temperature must not be around or under the freezing point
(<0 °C). Therefore, the water freezes in the pump; the higher volume of ice destroys the pump. Store the
product in a dry place above freezing point during winter.
• Although the connection cable of the pump complies with protection class IPX4, it must be operated in a
place protected against rainfall. In addition, protect the pump from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures,
dust and dirt.
• If you use an extension line or if it is required to lay cables to the deep well pump, they must not have
a smaller cross-section than the pump itself. Use only extension leads with earthing contact suitable for
outdoor use.
• Protect the power cord of the deep well pump from cold/heat, oil/petrol and sharp edges; do not step on
the power cord, do not drive on it (for example, a garden cart, bicycle, car). Never bend the mains cable
or place objects on it.
• Make sure that electrical plug-in connections are located in areas protected against flooding, otherwise,
there is a risk of fatal electric shock! If necessary, use suitable protective housings for the plug
connections.
• Protect the mains plug against moisture! Never plug in or unplug the product when your hands are wet.
There is a risk of fatal electric shock!
• The mains cable or the mains plug must not be cut off.
