English Preliminary Operations For your safety, please read the instructions below carefully before performing maintenance operations of any kind.• Check that the voltage requirements of appliance correspond to the power supply voltage.• This product is intended for indoor use.• Ensure that your home is protected by a differential safety switch with a tripping current of no more than 30mA.• Do not connect the product to the power supply before completing all installation operations.• Disconnect the electrical appliance from the power supply before performing maintenance operations of any kind.• Connect the plug to the power supply, leaving a loop in the cable below the socket to prevent drops of water from reaching the power supply (Fig. 1).• Remember that water and dust protection levels are ensured only if the lamps have been inserted and the ring nuts have been perfectly tightened.• If the power supply cable is damaged, the entire appliance must be replaced.• Any extraordinary maintenance must be performed by qualified personnel.Fig. 1 Important:

• “Qualified personnel” means a qualified technician registered in the Roll of Installers.• “Extraordinary maintenance” means any kind of maintenance not included in the section “Maintenance”. Features BracketsEXPLORALIGHT overtank lamps come with 2 painted metal brackets (non-toxic moisture-resistant paint) complete with suction pads for installing the device above the terrarium (Fig. 2).Electronic power supplyThe electronic power supply, with fluorescent lamps and parabolic reflector dish, ensures sufficient light in the terrarium and maximum safety and simplicity of use and maintenance.• Energy saving in accordance with the 2000/55 European Directive on use of appliances with low energy consumption.• Increased durability of the lamps.• More stable light: more similar to sunlight (absence of the typical flickering of traditional lighting).• Greater quality of lighting, which remains constant almost up to the end of lamp life.• Lower temperatures: the electronic power supply disperses little heat.• Increased safety: when the lamp is at the end of its life, a sophisticated electronic protection system removes the electrical current and places the appliance in safety conditions.• Lighter in weight: electronic power supplies weigh much less.

• Remove the overtank lamp from the packaging and connect the 2 brackets so that they run along the guides in the lower part of the overtank lamp itself, then attach the 4 suction pads.

• If you are using a fluorescent UVA-UVB lamp, we recommend that you position it at the back so that the light passes directly into the terrarium through the rear slots (otherwise the glass could filter out the benefits of the UV rays).

• Fix the anti-reflection plate above the Ferplast EXPLORA terrarium, having loosened the 2 frontal screws.

• Position the overtank lamp above the terrarium using the special suction pads, so that the 2 frontal suction pads are attached to the glass while the rear ones are positioned in the area of the metal sheet at the back where slots have been specially provided.
