2. Important Safety Instructions
- Read all instructions before using this product.
- Do not operate any appliance if it has a damaged cord or plug, or if it malfunctions or has been dropped or damaged in any manner.
- To avoid the possibility of the appliance plug or receptacle getting wet, position the 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" should be arranged by the user for each cord connecting an aquarium appliance to a 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 from traveling along the cord and coming into contact with the receptacle.
- Always unplug the appliance from the outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning. Never yank cord to pull plug from outlet. Grasp the plug and pull to disconnect.
- Do not install or store the appliance where it will be exposed to the weather or to temperatures below freezing.
- Ensure the light fixture is securely mounted to prevent accidental submersion.
- This product is for indoor use only.
