INSTALLATION AND USE
VERY IMPORTANT: You need to know that as soon as the unit is plugged in, it will start, and will immediately go
through its automatic priming sequence.
2. Open the IN & OUT valve levers placing them in the
vertical position.
3. Plug the unit into an electrical outlet.
The electronic automatic priming sequence will begin.
This is what will happen:
E. The pump will run for 1 minute to fill the filter
canister with aquarium water.
F. The pump will stop for 2 minutes to evacuate air
from the filter canister.
G. The pump will start again; it will remain on and
will run continuously until it is unplugged.
This sequence will repeat itself every time the unit is
unplugged and plugged back in.
Every 12 hours the pump will stop for 1 minute to
evacuate any air that may have become trapped inside
the unit.
