Caution: To protect against injury, basic safety precautions should be observed including the following:
1. Read and follow all safety advice.
2. Caution: Since equipment for ponds and aquariums comes into contact with water, particular care is needed to avoid an
electric shock. Should one of the following situations arise, do not repair the appliance yourself. The appliance must be
repaired by an authorised specialist or disposed of:
a) If the appliance has fallen into the water, do not reach after it! First disconnect the appliance from the mains
before retrieving it. If parts of the appliance carrying live current become wet, the appliance must be disconnected
from the mains immediately.

plug or power supply unit. The power cable of the appliance or the cable leading from the power supply unit
should form a "drip loop" to prevent any water running along the cable from reaching the mains socket. Never
touch the socket, plug or power supply unit should these become wet! First switch off the electric circuit to which
the appliance is connected (safety switch), before disconnecting the plug or power supply unit. Check all parts for
water.
