IMPORTANT PUMP WARNING AND SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When installing and using this electrical equipment, basic safety
precautions should always be followed, include the following:
Do not permit children to use this product.
RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK. Connect only to
a branch circuit protected by a ground-fault circuit-
interrupter (GFCI). Contact a qualied electrician if you cannot verify that the
circuit is protected by a GFCI.
This unit must be connected only to a supply circuit that
is protected by a ground-fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI).
Such a GFCI should be provided by the installer and
should be tested on a routine basis. To test the GFCI, push the test button. The
GFCI should interrupt power. Push the reset button. Power should be restored.
If the GFCI fails to operate in this manner, the GFCI is defective. If the GFCI
interrupts power to the pump without the test button being pushed, a ground
current is owing, indicating the possibility of an electric shock . Do not use this
pump. Disconnect the pump and have the problem corrected by a qualied
service representative before using.
This pump is for use with permanent swimming pools
and may also be used with hot tubs and spas if so
marked. Do not use with storable pools. A permanently-
installed pool is constructed in or on the ground or in a building such that it
cannot be readily disassembled for storage. A storable pool is constructed so
that it is capable of being readily disassembled for storage and reassembled
to its original integrity.
