Correct electrical installation
• Electrical installations must meet the national regulations and may only be carried out by a qualified electrician.
• A person is regarded as a qualified electrician, if, due to his/her vocational education, knowledge and experience, he
or she is capable of and authorised to judge and carry out the work commissioned to him/her. This also includes the
recognition of possible hazards and the adherence to the pertinent regional and national standards, rules and regu-
lations.
• For your own safety, please consult a qualified electrician.
• The unit may only be connected when the electrical data of the unit and the power supply coincide. The unit data is
to be found on the unit type plate or on the packaging, or in this manual.
• Ensure that the unit is fused for a rated fault current of max. 30 mA by means of a fault current protection device.
• Extension cables and power distributors (e. g. outlet strips) must be suitable for outdoor use.

Installation
Place the unit in the pond horizontally on firm, sludge-free ground and ensure that it is completely covered with water
at a maximum of 2 m / 4 m below the surface of the water.
