Danger: To avoid possible electrical shock, special care should be taken since water is employed in the use of aquarium
equipment. For each of the following situations, do not attempt repairs yourself; return the appliance to the manufacturer
for service or discard the appliance.

DO NOT immerse in water. If the appliance falls into the water, DON’T reach for it! First unplug it and then retrieve it. If
electrical components of the appliance get wet, unplug the appliance immediately. (Non-immersible equipment only)

Carefully examine the appliance after installation. It should not be plugged in if there is water on parts not intended to be
wet.

Do not operate any appliance if it has a damaged cord or plug, or if it is malfunctioning or if it is dropped or damaged
in any manner. The power cord of this appliance cannot be replaced: If the cord is damaged, the appliance should be
discarded. Never cut the cord.

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. The “drip-loop” should be arranged
by the user for each cord connecting an aquarium appliance to a receptacle. A “drip-loop” is the1

q1 part of the cord

below the level of the receptacle, or the connector if an extension cord is used, to prevent water traveling along the cord
and coming in contact with the receptacle. 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.

Close supervision is necessary when an appliance is used by or near children.
To avoid injury, do not contact moving parts or hot parts such as heaters, reflectors, lamp bulbs, and the like.

Always unplug an appliance from an outlet and battery backup when not in use, before putting on 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 appliance
manufacturer may cause an unsafe condition.

Do not install or store the appliance where it will be exposed to 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.

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 tripped over or pulled.

Prior to servicing ensure the appliance is unplugged from the mains as well as the battery backup.
