Double Insulation
Your product is double insulated. This means that all external metal parts are electrically isolated from the power supply. This is achieved by placing an extra insula- tion barrier between the electrical and mechanical parts. Double insulation means greater electrical safety and obviates the necessity of having your product earthed.

NEVER HOSE THE POWER HEAD WITH WATER.
