1.2 Unpacking
Your circulator is shipped in a special carton. Retain the carton and all packing materials until the unit
is completely assembled and working properly. Set up and run the unit immediately to confirm proper
operation. Beyond one week, your unit may be warranty repaired, but not replaced. If the unit is
damaged or does not operate properly, contact the transportation company, file a damage claim and
contact the company where your unit was purchased.
Remove any loose packing material which may have fallen into the reservoir during shipping. Also
check that nothing remains around the heater or circulator pump. Before proceeding, be sure the
Power switch is in the OFF position. Refrigerated models should have the Cooling switch in the OFF
position.
