Common questions about manuals, registration, and support for this brand.
Use the push-button primer for an easy self-priming start-up. If the motor continues to make noise after 15-30 seconds, manually fill the canister 3/4 full with aquarium water before reconnecting the motor.
Your specific tank conditions will determine the frequency. Periodically replace expendable media like carbon and zeolite. Clean the coarse biological sponge gently in aquarium water only; using tap water with chlorine will kill off the beneficial bacterial colonies.
Check that nothing is blocking the dishwasher's detergent dispenser door. Next, ensure that your dishwasher is receiving an adequate flow of water. Always handle the pods with dry hands so they do not stick to the dispenser cup.
Turn the motor unit upside down, twist the impeller retainer counterclockwise, and pull upwards to remove the entire impeller and shaft. Rinse gently under running water using a soft brush to remove build up. Never use soap or detergent.
