Installation and Use
- Read the supplied instructions and verify the unit's voltage, frequency and plug before connecting it.
- Confirm suitability for your water type and inhabitants; do not assume universal compatibility with marine, brackish or turtle setups.

- Position securely with suitable water circulation, keeping the heater clear of substrate and decorations as instructed.
- Observe the manufacturer's waiting period before switching on after installation.

- Do not operate outside its specified water-level limits or run it dry.
- Inspect the glass, cable and seals regularly; stop using the heater if damaged.
- Follow the manufacturer's cleaning instructions and avoid sudden temperature changes to the glass.
Explosion-proof construction and automatic over-temperature protection have not been verified for the supplied models. Follow all manufacturer precautions regardless of any listed protective features.
