IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING – To guard against injury, basic safety precautions should be observed
including the following:
READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
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, return the appliance to an
authorized service facility for service or discard the appliance.
1. 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 the parts not intended to be wet.
C. Do not operate any appliance if it has a damaged cord or plug, or
if it is malfunctioning or if it is dropped or damaged in any
manner.
D. To avoid the possibility of the appliance plug or receptacle getting
wet, position aquarium stand and tank to one side of the wall
mounted receptacle to prevent water from dripping onto the
receptacle or plug. As shown in the figure below, a “drip loop”
should be arranged by the user for each cord connecting an
aquarium appliance to the receptacle. The “drip loop” is the part
of the cord below the level of the receptacle, or the connector if
an extension cord is used, to prevent water travel along the cord
and coming in contact with the receptacle. If the plug or the
receptacles do get wet, DON’T unplug the cord. Disconnect the
fuse to the circuit breaker that supplies power to the appliance.
Then unplug and examine for the presence of water in the
receptacle.
2. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
3. To avoid injury, do not contact moving parts or hot parts such as heaters, reflectors, lamp bulbs, etc.
4. Always unplug an appliance from the outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts,
and before cleaning. Never yank the cord to pull plug from the outlet. Grasp the plug and pull to
disconnect.
5. Do not use an appliance for other than intended use. The use of attachments not recommended or
sold by the appliance manufacturer may cause an unsafe condition.
6. Do not install or store the appliance where it will be exposed to the weather or to temperatures
below freezing.
7. Make sure an appliance mounted on a tank is securely installed before operating it.
8. Read and observe all the important notices on the appliance.
9. If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with a proper rating should be used. A cord rated for less
amperesor 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.
ONLY FOR POLARIZED ATTACHMENT PLUG APPLIANCES
10.If 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.

CONSIGNES DE SÉCURITÉ
IMPORTANTES
AVERTISSEMENT – Pour protéger contre les blessures, respecter les consignes de sécurité
de base, notamment ce qui suit :
LIRE ET RESPECTER TOUTES LES
INSTRUCTIONS DE SÉCURITÉ.
DANGER – Pour écarter les risques de décharge électrique, faire preuve de précautions particulières
en raison de la présence d’eau dans l’aquarium. Dans chacune des situations ci-dessous, renvoyer
l’appareil à un centre de réparation agréé ou le mettre au rebut.
1. A. Si l’appareil présente des signes de fuites d’eau anormales, le débrancher immédiatement
de la source d’alimentation.
B. Examiner l’appareil avec soin après son installation. Ne pas le brancher
s’il y a de l’eau sur des pièces non destinées à être mouillées.
C. Ne pas utiliser un appareil s’il a un cordon ou une fiche
endommagés, s’il fonctionne mal, s’il est tombé ou s’il a été
endommagé d’une quelconque façon.
D. Pour écarter le risque de mouiller la fiche de l’appareil ou la prise
de courant, placer le socle et la cuve de l’aquarium sur le côté
par rapport à la prise murale, afin d’éviter que l’eau ne goutte sur
la prise ou la fiche. Prévoir une « boucle d’égouttement », illustrée
ci-dessous, sur chaque cordon qui raccorde un appareil de
l’aquarium à la prise de courant.
La « boucle d’égouttement » est la portion de cordon en dessous
du niveau de la prise, ou du connecteur si un cordon de rallonge
est utilisé, pour empêcher l’eau de s’écouler le long du cordon et
de venir au contact de la prise. Si la fiche ou la prise sont
mouillées, NE PAS débrancher le cordon. Couper l’électricité au
niveau du disjoncteur qui alimente l’appareil. Débrancher ensuite
le cordon et voir s’il y a de l’eau dans la prise de courant.
2. Une supervision étroite est nécessaire lors de l’utilisation de tout appareil électrique par des enfants
ou à leur proximité.
3. Pour éviter les blessures, ne pas toucher de pièces en mouvement ni de pièces chaudes telles que
radiateurs, réflecteurs, ampoules, etc.
4. Toujours débrancher un appareil de la prise de courant lorsqu’il n’est pas utilisé, avant de poser ou
d’enlever des pièces et avant de le nettoyer. Ne jamais tirer sur le cordon pour sortir la fiche de la
prise. Saisir la fiche et tirer pour débrancher.
5. Ne pas utiliser un appareil à d’autres fins que celles prévues. L’emploi d’accessoires non
recommandés ni vendus par le fabricant de l’appareil peut produire une situation dangereuse.
6. Ne pas installer ni entreposer l’appareil dans un endroit exposé aux intempéries ou à des
températures inférieures au gel.
7. S’assurer qu’un appareil monté sur un aquarium est solidement installé avant de le mettre en
marche.
8. Lire et respecter toutes les consignes importantes figurant sur l’appareil.
9. Si un cordon de rallonge est nécessaire, utiliser un cordon de capacité suffisante. Un cordon prévu
pour des intensités (A) ou des puissances (W) inférieures à celles de l’appareil peut surchauffer.
Veiller à disposer le cordon de manière à éviter tout risque de trébuchement ou d’arrachement.
APPAREILS À FICHE POLARISÉE SEULEMENT
10.Si cet appareil comporte une fiche polarisée (une lame plus large que l’autre) par mesure de
sécurité, cette fiche ne peut être branchée dans une prise polarisée que dans un sens. Si la fiche ne
rentre pas complètement dans la prise, retourner la fiche. Si elle ne rentre toujours pas, contacter
un électricien qualifié. Ne jamais utiliser avec un cordon de rallonge si la fiche ne s’enfonce par
complètement. Ne pas tenter de contourner ce dispositif de sécurité.

POMPE À AIR
DÉCOR

1. Check air pump for any signs of shipping damage. If damaged, do not operate and
return to place of purchase.
2. Place Air Pump on flat surface near aquarium.
3. Connect one end of the airline tubing (sold separately) to air outlet valves on the
back of the unit, then secure tubing with braces, connect the other end of the airline
tubing to décor. (Please note: For the 60G and 100G units, TWO separate airline
tubes should be attached, simply repeat the step above.)
4. Be sure that the cord makes a “drip loop” to prevent water from running down and
into the air pump plug or receptacle.
5. Plug in air pump.
To maintain efficient performance of the Air Pump, replacing worn internal rubber
diaphragms, check valve(s) and dirty filter pads (sold separately in repair/replacement kits)
is recommended.
