Thoroughly rinse all filter materials with warm water before the first use. Do not
open the Multi-stage filter cartridges.
Attach filter
How to proceed:
B
1. Place the filter on the aquarium rim so that the filter hangs vertically on the side of
aquarium.
2. Use the adjustable leveler to align the filter.
– The adjustable leveler holds the filter vertically and supports it against the
aquarium wall.
3. Extend the telescopic intake to the desired height.
– Make sure that no aquarium substrate (e.g. sand) is sucked in.
Requirements for reliable water intake:
• Do not let the water level drop more than 5.5 in from the aquarium rim. This will
ensure that the pump draws in the water safely, e.g. after a power failure.
• Fill the filter housing completely with water (before the first start-up and after
cleaning the filter housing).
