13. Switch off the lamp and allow to cool for 10 minutes before
performing any maintenance of any kind, cleaning or re-lamping,
in the terrarium.
14. A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting
from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer 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 tripped over or pulled.
15. DANGER – To avoid possible electrical shock, special care
should be taken. For each of the following situations, do not
attempt repairs yourself; return the appliance to an authorized
service facility for service or discard the appliance:
A. If the appliance falls into the water, DON’T reach for it! First
unplug it and then retrieve it. If the electrical components of the
appliance get wet, unplug the appliance immediately.
B. Carefully examine the appliance after installation. It should not
be plugged in if there is water on parts not intended to be wet.
C. Do not operate any appliance if it has a damaged electrical 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.
D. To avoid the possibility of the appliance plug
or electrical outlet getting wet, position the
appliance to one side of a wall mounted outlet
to prevent water from dripping onto the outlet
or plug. A “drip-loop” should be arranged. The
“drip-loop” is that part of the cord below the
level of the unit and the outlet, or the connector
if an extension cord is used, to prevent water
from traveling along the cord and coming in
contact with the outlet or light unit. If the plug
or outlet does get wet, DON’T unplug the
electrical cord. Disconnect the fuse or circuit breaker that
supplies power to the appliance, then unplug and examine for
presence of water in the outlet.
