SAFETY PRECAUTIONS & INSTRUCTIONS
To safeguard against injury, basic precautions are necessary and should be observed.
Please read all safety instructions before attempting to operate your aquarium.*
Read and Follow all Safety Instructions:
Shipping materials and plastic wrap can be dangerous. To avoid suffocation, keep away from babies and children.
DANGER—Electric shock and other injuries can occur without following safety procedures and instructional guidelines provided in this manual.
1) To avoid possible shock, locate a clean, level, non-skid, sturdy surface that will support 50 pounds. This will prevent uneven water distribution inside the tank that could cause dripping or leaking onto electrical cords, plugs and outlets.
2) Locate your aquarium near an electrical outlet to avoid excess wiring that may create safety hazards and/or tripping.
3) Do not plug in your aquarium to an electrical outlet before filling it with water.
4) Carefully inspect the aquarium, after filling with water, and check the provided materials to ensure no portion of the aquarium is wet that is not intended to be wet. Electrical wires and light bulb socket need to be completely dry before plugging your system into an electrical outlet.
5) Do not handle any form of electrical devices, the light bulb and the light socket if your hands or clothing are wet or damp. Dry your hands and work station completely before powering your aquarium with electrical means.
6) Always unplug electrical equipment from the outlet before performing aquarium maintenance of any kind.
7) If a plug or outlet gets wet, DO NOT unplug the cord. Disconnect the fuse or circuit breaker that provides power to the aquarium.
8) Never move the aquarium if it is full or partially full of water, and never lift the aquarium by the acrylic dry tube. Extensive damage and cracking can occur if it is not properly drained.
9) Do not attempt at any point to disassemble the aquarium, reef structure, electrical wiring, themed facade, cylinder or any other part of the system that has not been instructed in the owner’s manual.
10) If your aquarium shows any sign of abnormal water leakage, immediately unplug the system from the power source.
11) Do not operate the aquarium if it has damaged cords, plugs, light bulb socket, cracked acrylic walls, or if it is malfunctioning. Do not operate the aquarium if it has been dropped or damaged in any manner.
12) Close supervision of children is required when this aquarium is in use.
13) Do not attempt to handle moving parts, light bulb or socket when the aquarium is in operation and powered by electricity.
14) Do not use the aquarium, its contents, or functional features for any other use than what is stated in this manual.
15) Do not use any other equipment with this aquarium other than what is provided or specified. Malfunction, damage to property and injury may occur.
16) Do not install this aquarium near a heat source, air conditioning vent, or where temperatures will be below freezing.
17) Do not install this aquarium outside or in any other area where it will be exposed to natural elements.
18) This aquarium has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). If the plug does not easily fit into an outlet or extension, do not force it. Reverse the plug and try again. If the plug still does not fit with ease into the outlet, contact a qualified electrician. Never use an extension cord unless the plugs completely fit into the socket.
