SAFETY INFORMATION
Carefully read and follow all safety instructions in this
manual or on pump.
This is the safety alert symbol. When you see this
symbol on your pump or in this manual, look for one of
the following signal words and be alert to the potential for
personal injury!
warns about hazards that will cause serious
personal injury, death or major property damage if ignored.
warns about hazards that can cause serious
personal injury, death or major property damage if ignored.
warns about hazards that will or can cause
minor personal injury or property damage if ignored.
The word NOTICE indicates special instructions which are
important but not related to hazards.
Electrically powered sump pumps normally give many years
of trouble-free service when correctly installed, maintained,
and used. However, unusual circumstances (interruption
of power to the pump, dirt/debris in the sump, flooding that
exceeds the pump's capacity, electrical or mechanical failure
in the pump, etc.) may prevent your pump from functioning
normally. To prevent possible water damage due to flooding,
consult your dealer about installing a secondary sump
pump, a DC backup sump pump, and/or a high water alarm.
See "Troubleshooting" in this manual for information about
common sump pump problems and remedies.
