WARNING
To guard against injury, basic safety precautions should be observed,
including the following:
READ ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE.
DANGER
To avoid possible electric shock, special care should be taken since water is employed around the use of this product. 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.
A. If the appliance shows any sign of abnormal behavior, immediately
unplug from the power source.
B. Carefully examine the appliance after installation. It should not be
plugged in if there is water on 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 a wall mounted receptacle to prevent water from dripping onto
the receptacle or plug. A “drip loop”,
shown in the Figure at the right should
be arranged by the user for each cord
connecting an aquarium appliance to a
receptacle. The ”drip loop” is that part of
Heater
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 receptacle
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.

E. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near
children.
F. To avoid injury, do not contact moving parts or hot parts such as
heaters, reflectors, lamp bulbs, and etc.
G. 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
H. 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.
I. Do not install or store the appliance where it will be exposed to the
weather or to temperatures below freezing.
J. Make sure an appliance mounted on a tank is securely installed before operating it.
K. Read and observe all the important notices on the appliance.
L. 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.
M. 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.

sure hands are completely dry before re-plugging into an electrical
outlet.
SERVICING
In order to assure proper electrical connections and polarity, replacement parts and servicing should be performed only by a qualified
electrician.

TRUETEMP TITANIUM—HEATING SYSTEM
Thank you for purchasing the TRUE TEMP digital heater controller and
titanium heating system. The TRUE TEMP is the most complete heating
system to date with the most advanced features that set it apart as the
leading heater for professional hobbyists.
Our digital microprocessor boasts amazing +/- 0.5 F accuracy, a calibration setting, indestructible titanium heating element with thermal shut
off, smart memory chip, LED heating indicator, magnetic heater/probe
holders, safety guard, remote temperature probe, and a large constant
LED display of the current temperature.
Maintaining the correct temperature for tropical fish may be the single
most important factor for a successful aquarium.
Since fish do not have the ability to regulate their own body temperature, it is crucial that we provide consistent water temperatures with
minimal fluctuations.
Majority of fish cannot cope with the stress from constant temperature
fluctuations, which leads to a compromised immune system. This increases the probability of avoidable diseases, parasites, and bacterial
infections.
100 % DIGITAL OPERATION
Don’t be fooled, some controllers still incorporate analog dials and knobs without the precision accuracy of TRUE digital controllers.
Our advanced microprocessor constantly
reads and displays the correct temperature to
a tenth of a degree with a large LED display.
Easy push buttons make setting your desired
temperature simple and easy.

TITANIUM
The perfect submersible element for fresh or saltwater aquaria. Virtually
indestructible with the benefits of fast heat transfer without any corrosion. Integrated thermal shut off and out of water safety mechanism.

REMOTE TEMPERATURE PROBE
Most heaters have an integrated temperature probe
within the same heating element. This can lead to
false readings and premature ON/OFF cycles.
The TRUE TEMP digital controller is equipped with a
remote quick disconnect temperature probe that can
be placed up to 5 feet away from the heating element for a comprehensive temperature measurement of the total volume of water. Quick disconnect temperature probe grants easy replacement without the need to replace the entire controller in the
event it fails

ADVANCED SAFETY
SAFETY GUARD
All titanium heating elements are securely placed inside our
safety guards that protect you and your livestock from the
heating core. Our flow thru design grants continuous water contact without interruption.
MAGNETIC HOLDERS
Include innovative magnetic heater and temperature probe
holders that replace outdated and unreliable rubber suction
cups that constantly lose their hold.
Easily place your heater vertically, horizontally, or at any
angle you please with long lasting stability.
CROSS REFERENCE
Have you ever noticed that majority of heaters cannot be
calibrated. Often times, errors do occur during the calibration process. The ability to cross reference ensures your temperature is accurate and always correct.
SMART MEMORY CHIP
An integrated smart memory chip will restore the previous temperature
set point and calibration to the last stored setting once the power returns after a failure. This alleviates having to manually reset settings forever.

Attaching Magnetic Heater Case Holders
Unpack contents of the TRUETEMP TITANIUM
heating system and verify that all parts are included.
1. Attach Magnetic Heater Case Holders (2) over the male
prongs on heater case.
2. Slide Magnetic Heater Case Holders UP/DOWN and until
it securely fastens.
3. Find a location for the heater to be placed in your aquar
ium or sump. We recommend placing the heating element where there is a constant flow of water to evenly
distribute the heat.
4. Connect other half of magnets by placing on the opposite
side.
Attaching Magnetic Temp Probe Holder
1. Insert temperature probe into Magnetic Temp Probe
Holder . Note: Insert into the largest hole.
2. Place magnetic temp probe inside aquarium or sump
3. It is recommended to place the temperature probe
away from the heating element to obtain a more
accurate temperature of the total volume of water.
Note: For Sump Placement
Always place the temperature probe in this order:
Water from the tank into sump
Temperature Probe
Heating Element
Water back into the tank
4. Connect other half of magnet by placing on the opposite side.
10
Caution: Do Not plug into electrical power source
until heater is connected and submerged in water
Connecting Heating Element to Controller
1. Plug in heater into the 3 prong receptacle of the TRUE TEMP digital controller.
2. Plug in temperature probe (male) into receptacle
3. Plug in TRUE TEMP digital controller into an approved 110V-120V
outlet.
CREATING A TEMPERATURE SET POINT
1. Press & Hold the UP button until the screen blinks. Once the
screen blinks, depress the UP button and adjust to your desired
temperature set point by pressing the UP or DOWN buttons accordingly.
Note: The TRUETEMP TITANIUM controller has a +/-1F cycle point.
Example: If controller is set to 77F, the heater will turn on at 76F and
turn off at 78F. This will prevent constant on/off cycles and stays within
a 2 degree variance of temperature which is safe for aquarium inhabitants.
CALIBRATING THE TEMPERATURE
Calibrating the temperature is very important to ensure that the controller matches your aquarium’s current temperature.
1. Press and Hold both UP and DOWN buttons simultaneously until
the screen blinks, depress the UP and DOWN buttons and adjust to
the current water temperature of the water. ( You will need a thermometer as a reference).
