Setting Up The Aquarium - JUWEL Aquarium RIO 125 Instruction Manual

Introduction
Thank you for choosing a JUWEL Aquarium product.
Our products represent over 50 years experience in the manufacturing of aquariums and their acessories applying most modern
production techniques bringing together the JUWEL Aquarium system, which is both easy to use and simple to maintain.
Please read this instruction manual carefully and completely to make sure you have received all components before setting up the
aquarium. Please observe the safety instructions and maintenance guidelines given in this manual.
This instruction manual has been carefully prepared to provide you with accurate and complete information. All efforts have been made
to ensure that the information given is correct. However, we cannot accept responsibility for printing or other errors. Technical details
are always approximate and are not warranted characteristics and may be subject to change without notice.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS:
This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with
reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge
if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a
safe way and understand the hazards involved. Children shall not play with the
appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without
supervision.
The power plugs of the electrical devices must not become moist. Connect the power
plugs to the power supply at such a height that the connection cable forms a loop
which would enable the water to drip down.
At all times, only operate the electrical devices for your aquarium (lighting, heater,
pump etc.) using an earth leakage circuit breaker (EL circuit breaker) with a maximum
tripping current of 30 mA. If the socket that you are using in your home installation is
not safeguarded with such a circuit breaker, please use a commercially available power
strip with an integrated earth leakage circuit breaker.
The electrical devices may only be operated in rooms.
Pull the power plug of all devices operated in water before coming into contact with
the water.

Having made your checks, you should select the most suitable and desirable position for
your aquarium. The position selected should have an even and level surface and should
be able to support the weight of the filled aquarium. In order to prevent excessive algae
growth, we recommend that you select a position that is not exposed to direct daylight.
We strongly recommend that the appropriate JUWEL Aquarium cabinet is used. They
have a water-repellent surface and they have been made to match the dimensions and to
bear the weight of the filled aquarium. The cabinet must be positioned on a level surface.
The JUWEL Aquarium is built with a special bottom frame for security. The aquarium
should be placed directly onto the cabinet. DO NOT place any additional support, e.g.
polystyrene, under the aquarium since this is not necessary with our
aquariums.
