Use and Care Guide

9. Plug the charger back into the wall outlet.
(You should provide additional protection for
the control unit by using a surge protector.)
10. If any of the alarms are sounding, press the
WHITE button on the front of the control
panel for one (1) second.
TEST/RESET BUTTON
The TEST button may be used to check the pump
and system. Push the TEST button. This will
activate the pump for as long as you hold the
button. It will stop as soon as you let go of the
button.
TESTING THE FLOAT SWITCH
It is important to manually test the float
switch periodically.
Unplug the main AC pump when installing or
servicing the backup pump to avoid electric
shock. Failure to do so could cause serious
injury or death. Review the safety
instructions on page 1.
Lift the float up and let go. This will activate
the pump. The control unit will run the pump for
approximately 25 seconds so it can empty all the
water in the sump pit. If there is no water in
the pit, the pump can run dry for this amount of
time. The alarm will sound and the “Pump” light
will go on. Push the WHITE button on the front
of the control panel to reset the alarm. BE SURE
TO PLUG IN THE MAIN AC PUMP WHEN YOU HAVE
COMPLETED THE TEST.
