GENERAL	INFORMATION

The Battery-Powered Back-up Sump Pump is not a substitute

for your primary sump pump. It is designed as a backup

pump to pinch-hit for your primary sump pump during a power outage or other problem which prevents normal op-

eration. Do not use it to pump flammable fiquids or chemi- cals.

Keep battery charger dry and protected from damage.

In an emergency (such as an extended power outage)

which depletes the system battery, your automobile battery

-may be temporarily substituted. Be sure to replace the sys- tem battery as soon as possible.

If alarm sounds, check operation of primary pump, which may need service. If battery backup operation is due to a

power outage, alarm will sound, but no service is likely to be req_,ed to primary pump.

Battery charger has capacity to run pump and charge battery at the same time as long as power to the charger is not in- terrupted. If power to charger circuit is interrupted, the length of time that the backup pump will run depends on the Ampere-hour capacity of the battery used.

Extended periods of operation (for example, during an ex- tended power outage) may exhaust the battery. However, once the load is removed, usually it will self-regenerate far enough to allow the charger to start. The battery charger will begin charging the battery as long as the battery has a charge of at least 1/2 volt, and power is available to the charger.

After power is restored, charger will automatically re-charge battery fully in about six hours.

NOTICE: Some trouble conditions will cause the alarm to sound. See chart below for causes and action:

After restoring power or replacing battery, alarm can be reset.

CHARGER OPERATION

Backup pump will start automatically when sump water level rises far enough to trip float switch. After a delay, of about 4 seconds, alai'm will sound. Silence alarm by pushing

ALARM TEST/RESET button. In normal (switch actuated) op- eration, alarm is locked out until about 4 seconds after float

switch has dropped to OFF position; cycle can then begin again.

Test alarm by pushing ALARM TEST/RESET button when alarm is not sounding. Alarm will then sound as long as but- ton is held down. Pushing ALARM TEST/RESET button to

test alarm overrides lockout, so alarm can be tested at any time.
