Danger of death
Violating these safety instructions may re-
sult in death through electrocution.
Check the power cord with mains plug
for damage before every use. If the
power cord is damaged, please arrange
immediately for the exchange by an au-
thorized customer service or a skilled
electrician.
All electrical sockets should be fixed in
an area that is protected against floods.
Unsuitable extension cables can be
hazardous. Only use extension cables
outdoors which have been approved for
this purpose and labelled with a suffi-
cient cable cross-section.
The plug and coupling of the extension
cable used must be spray watertight.
Do not use the mains cable or the cable
of the level sensor to transport or fasten
the appliance.
To separate the machine from the
mains, pull the plug and not the power
cord.
Do not scrape the power cord across
sharp edges and ensure that it does not
get pressed.
The voltage indicated on the type plate
must correspond to the voltage of the
electrical source.
To avoid risks, all repairs and replace-
ment of spare parts may only be carried
out by the authorised customer service
personnel.
Follow the rules for electrical safety of
equipment:
When pumping out swimming pools,
garden ponds and fountains, only using
a earth-leakage circuit breaker with a
nominal leakage current of max. 30 mA
with the immersion pump. Do not oper-
ate the pump if there are persons locat-
ed in the swimming pool or the garden
pond.
For safety reasons, we recommend that
you operate the appliance only via a
earth-leakage circuit breaker (max. 30
mA).
The electrical connection of the system
may only be performed by a qualified
electrician. Please follow the respective
national regulations!
In Austria pumps to be used in swim-
ming pools and garden ponds should
be equipped with a fixed connection line
according to ÖVE B/EN 60555 Part 1 to
3; power supply should be via a ÖVE-
tested isolating transformer whereby
the secondary nominal voltage should
not exceed 230V.
This device is not intended for use by

be supervised, to ensure that they do
not play with the device.
Please follow the safety instructions before

Please keep in mind that the label "Name-
