automatically shut down the motor in an overheat situation. It will then reset itself once the motor
cools down. The pump will then work again. This overload protector is designed as a safety device
and it will fail after repeated use.
    F or best performance, it is recommended to connect the power cord directly to the grounded GFCI
outlet. If the use of an extension cord is necessary, always use a grounded waterproof type cord
Never use longer than a 25-ft. cord that is lighter than 14/3 gauge.
