The owner must not open any of the BIONEST® reactor covers to perform any
modication or intervention nor handle its components without prior authorization
by a Bionest authorized representative.
SERIOUS ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
• Power supply must always be disconnected prior to handling any of the BIONEST® system’s
electrical components.
• Grounding reduces the risk of electrocution. The BIOLARM® and aerator (air pump) are equipped
with a cord and grounding plug. The plug must be inserted into a grounded outlet according
to applicable codes and local regulations.
• There are underground pipes and electrical wires close to your septic installation. BEFORE
digging or undergoing any work within this area, please contact your installer.
• Power supply must always be cut off prior to any maintenance activity on any BIONEST®
electrical component.
• To prevent electric shocks, precautionary measures are required, as water travels
through this system when operating. Do not attempt any repair; contact Bionest for assistance.
• Do not operate the system if the electrical cord is damaged or shows any sign of wear.
• Never use the system for other uses than those for which it was installed. Do not use accessories
which are not recommended as this may create a dangerous situation and/or reduce the
efciency of the disinfection process.
Warnings - UV disinfection unit and lamp
Never look directly at a UV lamp while operating. The light produced by the lamp may
cause serious damage to unprotected eyes and burns to any unprotected skin area.
SEASONAL AND INTERMITTENT USE
The BIONEST® system is designed to provide adequate operation even without supply of
wastewaters for a prolonged period of time. Power supply must thus not be interrupted when the
system is used on an intermittent basis (period of use with short periods without wastewater
supply).
For seasonal use (ex. : summer cottage) and in cases where the system will not be used for
more than a six consecutive week period, the system’s aerator (air pump) power supply may be
disconnected. The aerator (air pump) must however be restarted upon return of the occupants.
For a system with UV disinfection, contact Bionest for details.
