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 microorganisms 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 to ensure cleaning and care of the water system and the water feature including the nozzle, and to 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 to keep records of the dates when maintenance and care was carried out, and to 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 are beyond Geo Global Partner’s influence. Geo Global Partners can only be held liable for manufacturing faults of TotalPond® units.
WARNING
- WARNING Improper connection of the appliance-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service representative if you are in doubt whether the appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance; if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified technician.
- Do not operate any appliance if it has a damaged cord or plug, or if it is malfunctioning or if it is damaged in any manner.
- Always unplug the appliance from the outlet before putting on or taking off parts, before cleaning or when not in use.

- Risk of Electric Shock – Do not use the UV filter if the quartz tubing around the lamp is broken. Immediately unplug and seek an authorized repair service or discard the unit.
- GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current.
