2. THIS IS NOT AN AQUARIUM CANOPY. It should not be used on any

type of aquarium. Not For Damp Locations.

3. WARNING: This appliance is NOT water resistant and MUST be

protected from coming in contact with water. Do Not Submerse.

4. 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 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 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. 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.

5. To reduce the risk of injury, close supervision is necessary when

the appliance is used by or near children.

6. To avoid injury, do not contact hot surfaces..

7. Always unplug an appliance from an outlet 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.

8. Do not use the appliance for other than intended use. The use

of attachments not recommended or sold by the appliance

manufacturer may cause an unsafe condition.

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

weather or to temperatures below freezing.

10. Make sure the appliance is securely installed before operating

it. Do not place object(s) on top of the canopy, except optional

accessories in the special sliding rim designed for their

mounting. The safety of this appliance is granted only provided

that the bulb(s) and the canopy are properly installed.

11. 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.

12. WARNING - For North American market only: This appliance has

a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). As a safety

feature, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If

the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still

does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Never use with an

extension cord unless plug can be fully inserted. Do not attempt

to defeat this safety feature.
