This pump has been evaluated for use with water only.

WARNING

IMPORTANT! For your own safety –
before starting to run the pump, please have
the following items checked by an expert:

1. Risk of electric shock – This pump is supplied
with a grounding conductor and grounding-type
attachment plug. To reduce the risk of electric shock,
be certain that it is connected only to a properly
grounded, grounding-type receptacle.

2. Risk of electric shock – This pump has not been
investigated for use in swimming pool areas.

3. The electrical connections must be
protected from moisture.

6. The pump must be protected from frost.

7. The pump must be protected from running dry.

8. Access by children should also be
prevented with appropriate measures.

10. POSITION OF PUMP:

To avoid the possibility of the pump plug or
receptacle getting wet, position pump to one
side of a wall mounted receptacle to prevent
water from dripping onto the receptacle or plug.
The user should arrange a “drip loop” in the
cord connecting the pump to a receptacle.

Pump

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 traveling along the
cord and coming in contact with the receptacle.

11. To prevent death from electric shock,

pump must be connected only to a GFCI
protected outlet.

12. Do not use an extension cord with this item.

13. WARNING: The cord of this product contains
lead and/or di (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP),
chemicals known to the State of California
to cause cancer, and birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.
(California Health & Safety Code § 25249.5, et seq.)

14. People with pacemakers should consult their
physician(s) before use. Electromagnetic fields in
close proximity to heart pacemaker could cause
pacemaker interference or pacemaker failure.

15. The warnings, precautions, and instructions
discussed in this instruction manual cannot cover all
possible conditions and situations that may occur.
It must be understood by the operator that
common sense and caution are factors
which cannot be built into this product, but
must be supplied by the operator.
