pressure washer is turned off and that the inlet and outlet
hoses are disconnected.

Failure to do so will permanently damage your pump and render
the unit inoperable. Freeze damage is not covered by the war-
ranty.
To use PumpSaver, make sure the electric pressure washer is
turned off and inlet and outlet hoses are disconnected.
