Hazards encountered by the combination of water and electricity The combination of water and electricity can lead to death or severe injury from electrocution, if the unit is incorrectly connected or misused. Prior to reaching into the water, always switch off the mains voltage to all units used in the water.

Correct electrical installation Electrical installations must meet the national regulations and may only be carried out by a qualified electrician. A person is regarded as a qualified electrician if, due to his/her vocational education, knowledge and experience, he or she is capable of and authorised to judge and carry out the work commissioned to him/her. This also includes the recognition of possible hazards and the adherence to the pertinent regional and national standards, rules and regu- lations. For your own safety, please consult a qualified electrician. The device may only be connected if the electrical data of the device and the power supply coincide. The device data is to be found on the device type plate, on the packaging or in this manual. Ensure that the unit is fused for a rated fault current of max. 30 mA by means of a fault current protection device. Extension cables and power distributors (e. g. outlet strips) must be suitable for outdoor use. Install the transformer at a minimum safety distance of 2 m from the water. Protect the plug connections from moisture. Only plug the unit into a correctly fitted socket.

Never operate the unit if either the electrical cables or the housing are defective! Do not carry or pull the unit by its electrical cable. Route cords/hoses/lines in a way that they are protected against damage, and ensure that they do not present a tripping obstacle. Only open the unit housing or its attendant components, when this is explicitly required in the operating instructions. Only execute work on the unit that is described in this manual. If problems cannot be overcome, please contact an authorised customer service point or, when in doubt, the manufacturer. Only use original spare parts and accessories for the unit. Never carry out technical modifications to the unit. The power connection cables cannot be replaced. When the cable is damaged, the unit or the component needs to be disposed of. Only operate the unit with the supplied transformer. Only operate the unit if no persons are in the water! Keep the connection plugs dry. The power pack and the plug connectors of the power cables supplied are not water-tight, but only rain and splash- proof. Do not route or fit in the water.- EN -

Installation and connection B, C Ensure that units are positioned and secured such that they cannot present a hazard: Install the transformer at a minimum safety distance of 2 m from the water. Install the twilight sensor outside of the water with the sensor eye pointing upwards. Position the lights outside of the water or in the water and tilt the light head as desired.

1. Connect the plug of the spotlight connection cable to the socket on the twilight sensor and hand-tighten the union

nut. – Alternatively: Connect the spotlight to the transformer without the twilight sensor in-between.
