• Contact an expert when in doubt about the operation, safety or connection of the product.
• Maintenance, modifications and repairs must only be carried out by a technician or a specialist repair
centre.
• If you have any questions that are not answered in these operating instructions, please contact our
technical customer service or other professionals.
c) Installation site and connection
• Operate the product in a way that it is out of reach of children.
• The use of the product near garden ponds, wells, swimming pools, 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 the vicinity of 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 cable or if it is required to lay the cables to the deep well pump, they must not
have a smaller cross-section than the pump itself. Use only extension cables 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 power cord
or place objects on it.
• Make sure that electrical plug-in connections are located in areas protected against flooding. Otherwise,
there is the lethal danger of an electric shock! If necessary, use suitable protective housings for the
plug-in 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 power cord or the mains plug must not be cut off.
d) Operation
• Only clear, clean fresh water with a maximum temperature of +35 °C is allowed as the pumped liquid.
• The pumped liquid must be clean. Due to the design of the deep well pump, only the impurities up to a
particle size of 1.5 mm are allowed.
