• Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
• To avoid injury, do not contact moving parts.
• Always unplug an appliance from an outlet when not in use, before putting or taking off parts, and before cleaning.
Never yank cord to pull plug from outlet. Grasp the plug and pull to disconnect.
• Do not use an appliance for other than intended use. The use of attachments not recommended or sold by the ap-
pliance manufacturer may cause an unsafe condition.
• Do not install or store the appliance where it will be exposed to the weather or to temperatures below freezing.
• Make sure an appliance mounted on a tank is securely installed before operating it.
• Read and observe all the important notices on the appliance and its cord.
• 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. Care should be taken to arrange the cord so that it will not be trip-
ped over or pulled.
• Check that the voltage shown on the label of the unit corresponds to the voltage of the mains supply.
• Disconnect all electrical appliances from the mains before placing hands in the water.
• The line cord of this unit cannot be replaced or repaired. Should the line cord become damaged the appliance
must be discarded.
KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
• 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 the aquarium appliance to a receptacle. The "drip loop" is
that part of the cord below the level of the cord and coming in contact with the recepta-
cle. If the plug or receptacle does get wet, DON'T 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.
