Safety Instructions
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK:
- Always unplug the pump from the electrical outlet before cleaning or handling
- Use with clean water ONLY, do not place in other liquids
- Do not connect to any voltage other than shown on the pump
- Do not use in water above 90°F (30°C)
- Ensure that the electrical cord loops below the electrical outlet to form a "drip loop". This will prevent water from running down the cord into the electrical outlet
Regular Maintenance to Extend your Pump's Life:
To clean pump:
- Unplug from electrical outlet. Use a small soft brush or place under a stream of water to remove debris.
- Periodically monitor the water and change water according to water quality to prevent water from forming micro-organisms.
