observed, including the following:
READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1.
and all the important notices on the appliance before using. Failure to do so may
result in loss of fish life and/or damage to this appliance.
2. DANGER – To avoid possible electric 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 an authorized
service facility for service or discard the appliance.
A. If the appliance shows any sign of abnormal water leakage, immediately
unplug it from the power source.
B. Carefully examine the appliance after installation. It should not be plugged in if
there is water on parts not intended to be wet. If the appliance or any part of it
falls into the water DO NOT reach for it. First unplug the unit before retrieving.
C. Do not operate any appliance if it has a damaged cord or plug, or if it is
malfunctioning or 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 receptacle
getting wet, position the appliance
to one side of a wall mounted
receptacle to prevent water from
dripping onto the receptacle
or plug. A "drip loop" (see
illustration) should be arranged by
the user for the cord connecting
appliance to a receptacle. "The
drip loop" is that part of the cord
below the level of the receptacle
or the connector if an extension
cord is used, to prevent water
travelling along the cord and coming in contact with the receptacle. If the plug
or receptacle does get wet, DO NOT unplug the cord. Disconnect the fuse or
circuit breaker that supplies power to the appliance. Then unplug and examine
for presence of water in receptacle.
3. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with
significantly impaired physical or mental capabilities, unless they have been
given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the appliance by a person
responsible for their safety. Children should always be supervised to ensure that
they do not play with the appliance.
4. To avoid injury, do not touch moving parts or hot parts.

Care should be taken to arrange the cord so that it will not be tripped over or
pulled. The connection should be carried out by a qualified electrical installer.
