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, do not attempt to repair yourself; 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, 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
and tank to one side of the wall mounted receptacle
to prevent water from dripping onto the receptacle
or plug. A “drip loop,” shown in the figure below,
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, DO NOT 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 (32
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
amperes or 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
from outlet.
10. ONLY FOR POLARIZED ATTACHMENT PLUG
APPLIANCES: 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.

Caution: Before installing or operating the lighting, read and understand all safety instructions and warnings.
rEtroFIt InstallatIon
Into an existing fluorescent
light fixture
Turn off and unplug your
existing T5 or T8 fluorescent
light fixture
Allow the lamp to cool for 15 minutes. Remove the
fluorescent lamp from the fixture. The power supply cord
for the existing light fixture will no longer be used and can
be tied up or bound and placed in a location where it will
stay dry and out of the way.
WARNING: LIGHT FIXTURE MUST BE UNPLUGGED–
BIND OR DISCONNECT CORD FROM FIXTURE.
POWER SHOULD NOT BE DELIVERED TO THE FIXTURE
AS THE LED TUBES HAVE THEIR OWN SEPARATE
POWER SUPPLY.
Install the appropriate end
adaptors, either T5 or T8,
that correspond to the
sockets in the light fixture
The adaptor pins will install into the existing lamp sockets
like you would a lamp, by inserting the pins and rotating
them into position.
See Figure 1.
Make sure the adaptor
openings are facing so that the LED tube(s) can be
snapped into the adaptor.
Snap the ends of the LED
light(s) into the adaptors
and rotate the lamp so the
LEDs are facing the direction you
would like the light to shine
You may need to support the adaptor as you snap the LED
light in place. Route the power cord out of the light fixture
and connect the plug for each LED tube light to the 1 or 3
tube transformer (sold separately). Slide the protective
rubber sleeve over the connection(s) to protect it from
moisture. Once all connections are made, the transformer
can be plugged into an acceptable outlet and the eLite LED
Tube Light is ready for use.
