What you should do
− Isolate all units in the pond from the mains at all poles prior to starting work on the unit.
− Isolate all units in the pond from the mains at all poles prior to going in the water.
− Commission an approved professional electrician to carry out and service all electrical installations.
− At the first sign of a problem, disconnect the unit from the mains at all poles.
What not to do
− Do not use the unit if persons are in the water.
− Do not shorten the connection cable.
− Do not remove the earth conductor or the earth contact.
− Do not carry or pull the unit by the connection cable.
− Do not attempt to open the housing.
− Never remove the legends from the unit or the connection cable.
− Avoid pinching, bending or damaging the connection cable. A small cut, even only in the outer jacket,
could be sufficient to allow water to soak into the cable. When you detect damage, take the unit out of
operation immediately and remove it from the water. Ask your OASE dealer how to proceed further.
Never forget: every damage to the connection cable implies a high risk of electrocution. Should the
unit be operated anyway, every guarantee or warranty will immediately expire.

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 pur-
poses, 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 contamina-
tion, 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, hoses, tubes, cable
clamp connectors, under-water lighting and nozzles to keep them in functional order in line with safety aspects. How-
ever, 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 OASE’S influence. OASE can only be held liable for manufacturing faults of OASE units.

Installation
Attention! Dangerous electrical voltage.
Unit sections, connections and pond water could carry dangerous voltage if the electrical installation of the
unit is incorrectly performed.
Possible consequences: Death or severe injury when touching unit sections, connections or in the event
of contact with the pond water.
Protective measures: Ensure a minimum distance of 2 m (6 ft) from the pond edge for safety transformers
and mains sockets. For the installation of mains sockets, power cables and safety transformers, choose a
location, which cannot be flooded. Protect mains sockets and plug connections from moisture. When
routing the connection cable, ensure its protection so that damage is excluded.
