the power! Do not carry or pull the unit by the connection cable. Only use the unit with the attendant
safety transformer contained in our scope of delivery. Never open the unit housing or its attendant
components, unless this is explicitly mentioned in the operating instructions. Always disconnect the
power supply of all units located in water and of this unit prior to performing work on the unit! The
power cable cannot be replaced, if damaged. Never carry out technical changes to the unit. Only use
original spare parts and accessories. Only allow authorised customer service outlets to perform
repairs. Never use the system for filtering fluids other than water! Ensure that the filter will not overflow.
Danger of completely emptying the pond. For your own safety, consult an expert when you have
questions or encounter problems!
Installation
Lay the outlet pipes for the water outlet into the pond and for the drain outlet into the sewage system or
flower bed with a sufficient gravity. Ensure that the unit is placed at a flood protected place and on firm
ground. When installing an FIAP UVC pre-clarifying unit (e.g. UV Active), place the unit at a minimum
distance of 2 m from the pond edge. Place the transformer at a minimum distance of 2 m from the
pond edge at a flood protected place. Ensure unrestricted access to the cover to be able to carry out
work on the unit. Push or turn the hose onto the stepped hose nozzle and secure with a hose clip. Lay
the hose such that it will not deform when walked on, avoid kinks and connect it to the pump.
Start-up
Switch on the pump. Close the cover. The unit functions automatically.
Note: The FIAP Bio Screen Active filter is a mechanical- biological filter system and requires several
weeks after its first installation to reach its full biological effect.
Maintenance and cleaning
Adhere to the safety information given above! Always unplug the power cables of the pump prior to
starting work! Only clean the filter when required, do not use chemical cleaning agents to permit the
filter biology to optimally develop, knowing that cleaning agents kill the bacteria in the foam filters.
Clean and replace the foam filters
Open the unit cover and tilt the screen insert upward. To mechanically clean the foam filters, remove
the foam filters and rinse with clean water. Open the cleaning outlet using the slide valve until the
water has completely drained, close and switch the pump on until the filter is completely filled with
pond water. Open the cleaning outlet again and drain the water. Repeat rinsing 2 – 3 times. Tilt the
screen insert down again and close the filter cover, then switch the pump on again.
Storage/Over-wintering
Put the unit out of operation at water temperatures below 8 °C or, at the latest, when freezing
temperatures are to be expected. Drain and thoroughly clean the unit, check for damage. Remove,
clean, dry and store all foam inserts in a frost-free environment. Do not immerse the power plug in the
water! Ensure that the storage place is inaccessible to children. Cover the filter container such that the
ingress of rain water is excluded. Drain all hoses, pipes and connections as far as possible.
Wearing parts
Foam filters, and the FIAP Screen sieve are wearing parts and are, therefore, not covered by our
warranty.
Disposal
Dispose of the unit in accordance with the national legal regulations. Ask your specialist dealer.
