Setup Instructions

1. Unpack the Filter: Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Inspect for any damage.
2. Assemble Filter Components: Attach the filter head to the filter body. Ensure the sponge filtration media is correctly placed inside the filter housing.
3. Attach Air Pipe (Optional): If using the oxygen pump function, connect the air pipe to the designated outlet on the filter head. Position the other end of the air pipe out of the fish tank or above the water level to draw in air.
4. Mount the Filter: Submerge the filter completely in your aquarium water. Use the suction cups provided to securely attach the filter to the inside wall of the aquarium. Ensure the filter is fully submerged before plugging it in.
5. Connect to Power: Plug the power cord into a suitable electrical outlet. Ensure your hands are dry before handling the plug.

Operating Instructions

1. Initial Start-up: After setup, plug in the filter. The pump will begin circulating water and, if the air pipe is connected, providing aeration.
2. Adjust Flow Rate (if applicable): Some models may have an adjustable flow rate. Refer to the specific product design for adjustment mechanisms.
3. Continuous Operation: For optimal water quality, the filter should operate continuously.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance is crucial for the longevity and efficiency of your filter.

• Weekly: Check the filter's output for reduced flow.
• Bi-weekly/Monthly (or as needed):
  1. Unplug the Filter: Always disconnect power before performing any maintenance.
  2. Remove from Aquarium: Carefully detach the filter from the aquarium wall.
  3. Disassemble: Separate the filter head from the body and remove the sponge media.
  4. Clean Filter Media: Rinse the sponge filter media in old aquarium water (from a water change) to preserve beneficial bacteria. Do not use tap water directly, as chlorine can kill these bacteria. If the sponge is heavily clogged or deteriorating, replace it.
  5. Clean Impeller: Remove the impeller cover and clean the impeller and its housing. Hair, debris, or mineral deposits can reduce performance.
  6. Reassemble and Reinstall: Put all components back together, ensuring a secure fit. Reinstall the filter in the aquarium and plug it back in.
