OPERATION
Always disconnect the power source before
attempting to install, service, relocate or maintain the pump. Never
touch sump pump motor, water or discharge piping when pump is
connected to electrical power. Never handle a pump or pump motor
with wet hands or when standing on wet or damp surface or in water.
Fatal electric shock could occur.
Toujours débrancher le cordon
d'alimentation avant d'essayer d'installer, de réparer, de
déplacer ou de faire l'entretien de la pompe. Ne jamais
toucher le moteur de la pompe de puisard, l'eau ou les
tuyaux d'évacuation lorsque la pompe est branchée à une source
d'alimentation électrique. Ne jamais manipuler une pompe ou le moteur
d’une pompe avec les mains humides, ou debout sur une surface
mouillée ou humide ou dans l’eau. Cela pourrait occasionner un choc
électrique.
Risk of electrical shock! Use a GFCI receptacle
to reduce the risk of fatal electric shock. Cutting the cord will void the
warranty and make the pump inoperable.
Risque de choc électrique! Utiliser une prise
avec disjoncteur de fuite à la terre pour réduire le risque de choc
électrique. Couper le cordon annulera la garantie et rendra la pompe
inutilisable.
1. After installation, the backup pump will start when
the water level rises above the backup float switch.
2. The control box has a DC charger designed to shorten the
recharging time of your battery, and to prevent overcharging.
In addition, the control box has a time delay which keeps the
pump from repeated, short cycles when it shuts off. The time
delay feature will allow the pump to run 20-25 seconds after the
switch reaches the off position.
3. The control box contains multi-colored indicator lights. When
AC power is present, the lights will indicate the charging state,
and not reflect actual battery voltage, particularly with a defec-
tive battery. In order for the indicator light to provide an accu
rate reading, steps "a" through "d" must be followed.
Unplug main ac pump and the transformer. Risk
of electrical shock!
Débrancher la pompe principale et le
transformateur de courant c.A. Risque de choc électrique!
a. After main pump and transformer are unplugged, a power off
alert tone will sound for 30 seconds.
b. Press and release the self test button to activate the backup
pump.
c. When the pump stops, read the charge indicator lights:
Green: Indicates the battery is fully charged.
Yellow: Indicates battery is partially charged, but still operable.
Red: Battery is completely discharged or defective.
Red blinking: Battery discharged below level where pumping
can occur. Motor is locked out by controller until battery is
suficiently charged to run pump.
d. Plug in transformer and main AC pump. When main AC power
is out, and when pump has been running, the lights will indi-
cate battery status.
4. A chirping sound from the control box will accompany the red
light, indicating that the battery may require attention or
replacement. Voltage is only an indicator of battery condition
and may not reflect the true condition of the battery. See
maintenance for instruction on assessing battery condition.
5. A single thirty (30) second tone will sound when power to
the system is interrupted and the bottom power failure light
will illuminate. The unit will reset and the light will go out
automatically when power is restored.
6. A three (3) second tone will sound every time the pump starts.
