MAINTENANCE
Periodically clean the filter, the rotor and the pump chamber to remove any
debris which could block the unit (fig.3).
It is recommended to replace the filter cartridge after 3 or 4 rinsings or when it
appears to be damaged to ensure maximum efficiency. The activated carbon
in the cartridge will lose its efficiency over a period of time depending on the
pollution in your aquarium. It is therefore recommended that the carbon is
replaced at least once a month. If necessary, the container can be filled with
zeolite, ceramic or any other material as required.(fig.3).
The motor is fully encapsulated and self protected against overheating and
needs no particular care.
If the filter fails to work, first check the electrical supply, connections, circuit
breaker etc.. If these are all right, the pump needs cleaning.
CLEANING
Prior to any work, disconnect all electrical equipment from power.
Remove the filter from the motor housing and open it and pull off the rotor from
its location (fig.3).
Wash all components with the help of a non metallic brush. Lime-scale can be
removed by leaving the parts immersed in vinegar or lemon juice for few
hours.
Open the filter housing and rinse the filter sponge under luke-warm water. Do
not wash the chemical media container unless replacing the media.
