WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Please read these instructions carefully prior to starting up the unit!
The water system on which the operation of this product is based requires
utmost care and maintenance, possibly also the use of chemicals, in order to
prevent and keep the occurrence of micro-organisms and harmful bacteria,
especially legionellae that are responsible for legionnaire’s disease, under
control. Non-observance of this information about correct maintenance and care
can entail the spreading of harmful bacteria. Due to the fact that for
decorative purposes, water nozzles distribute water in the air, water droplets
containing harmful bacteria can enter your lungs and cause life-threatening
diseases.
It is the responsibility of the owner of the water system and its attendant
units to ensure their maintenance and care in compliance with the laws,
directives and instructions laid down for this purpose. In order to avert
harmful contamination, we urgently recommend the user ensure cleaning and care
of the water system and the water feature including the nozzle, and take all
necessary measures to maintain the technical units, such as pumps, tubing,
connectors, underwater lighting, and nozzles to keep them in functional order
in line with safety aspects. However, the maintenance and care obligation is
not limited to the technical products supplied but encompasses the entire
system. We also recommend the owner keep records of the dates when maintenance
and care were carried out and document all water tests made in conjunction
with the water feature. The owner is solely responsible for guaranteeing the
safety of the water feature. Use or maintenance of the units sold and the
system is beyond GeoGlobal Partner’s influence. GeoGlobal Partners can only
be held liable for manufacturing faults of TotalPond ® units.
