WARRANTY
LIMITED "ONE YEAR" WARRANTY TO ORIGINAL PURCHASER
Water Smart Pump Switch, See Water Inc. warrants that the See Water, Water Smart Pump Switch will be free from defects in material and workmanship for a period of one year to the original purchaser. This warranty is limited to the replacement of the switch only at the sole discretion of See Water Inc. This warranty valid only when the product installed in strict compliance with the manufacture's installation instructions. See Water Inc. will replace the switch when it is returned to See Water Inc.

WATER SMART SWITCH INSTALLATION
Disconnect voltage source.
Route and secure all wires as high as possible above the water level.
Connect and crimp the switch positive (+) red wire to the positive (+) source.
Connect the pump negative (-) black wire to the negative (-) source.
Connect the positive (+) brown wire from switch to positive (+) wire of pump.
Use heat shrink wire connectors included, or wires will corrode and your warranty will be voided.
Use heat source to shrink wire connectors until adhesive inside melts and flows out the ends.
Re-connect the voltage source.
Be sure that the bottom of the switch is aligned high enough above the pump impeller (1" minimum) for proper turn on and turn off.
The distance above the pump impeller depends on the individual bilge size.
For Maximum Efficiency of the eight (8) second delay the switch should be placed high enough so that when, the switch detects water, pump turns on and continues to pump water until the eight (8) seconds elapse, at this time the water should be eliminated at the same time the pump turns off. 
If the Water Smart Switch is installed too low the proper dead span (or amount of distance between on & off will not be achieved. The pump will continue to run sucking air until the eight seconds elapse.
REMEMBER:
The pump will continue to run for 9 seconds after the switch no longer detects water.
  WIRING
To prevent corroded wire connections, be sure to use adhesive filled heat shrink wire connections to seal all connections.

Locate wire connections above the highest possible water level. Be sure to use the appropriate wire size from battery source recommended by pump manufacturer.
 

TROUBLESHOOTING INFORMATION
NO WATER PUMPED

Make sure wire connections are not corroded.
Visual check is not enough -- a slight pull on each wire will tell if the wires are still joined.
Check to be sure no wire is hanging down in the water.
  BLOWN FUSE
Check fuse to see that it is the correct size.
DO NOT exceed amp rating of pump or switch.
If fuse size is correct and fuse still blows, check impeller to be sure it is not jammed or full of debris.
  PUMP WON'T SHUT OFF
Make sure that face of sensing area is clean of soap or soap products. Clean white case with water followed with WD40.
If the pump is sucking air and the switch has not reached the off position, then the switch may be mounted too low for the pump and should be reinstalled 1/2" higher. Make sure that the bottom of switch is higher than the top of the pump impeller.
