• 7KH SXPS PXVW QHYHU EH DOORZHG WR UXQ GU\
• Never leave the pump in operation when the delivery pipe is clogged.
• The pump must be positioned so that the holes on the suction side cannot be partially or totally clogged by
dirt.
• The pump must only be used when it is immersed in water. If the water runs out, the pump must be stopped
immediately by removing the plug from the power supply.

• the voltage and frequency specified on the pump’s nameplate coincide with those of the available power
supply;
• there are no signs of damage to the pump or its power cord;
• the electric connection is made in a dry place, protected against any risk of flooding;
• the electric system is complete with a residual current circuit-breaker (I ¨n30 mA) and an efficient
earthing connection;
• the length of the power cord is no more than 10 meters. Any extension cords must comply with the
requirements of the DIN VDE standard 0620.
1RWH: given the different provisions applicable to the safety of electric systems in different countries, make sure
that the pump system, as concerns its intended use, is in accordance with current legislation.

Insert the plug on the power cord in a suitable power socket.
Automatic operation:
The floating switch starts and stops the pump automatically. The water level that prompts the starting and stopping
of the pump can be adjusted by changing the length of cable between the holder and the float.
The power cord and floating switch must never be used to carry or move the pump. Always use the pump’s handle.

For safety reasons, the pump must not be used by anyone who has not read these instructions.
The appliance is not intendend for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction con-
cerning use of the appliance by a person responsable for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure
that they do not play with the appliance. (CEI EN 60335-1 : 08)

• Pay careful attention when the pump is operated in manual mode.
• The pump must be placed in a stable position inside a trap or in the lowest part of the place where it is
installed.
• The float must be able to move freely while the pump is in operation, so the recommended dimensions for
the trap are 40x40 cm.
• It is absolutely essential to prevent any risk of the pump freezing. In the event of freezing temperatures,
remove the pump from the liquid, empty it and keep it in a place where it cannot freeze.

The pump has a thermal overload safety device. In the event of any overheating of the motor, this device
automatically switches off the pump. The cooling time is roughly 15 to 20 minutes, then the pump automatically
comes on again. If the overload cutout is tripped, it is essential to identify and deal with the cause of the
overheating. See Troubleshooting.
