2. Vigtige sikkerhedsinstruktioner
- Always ensure the heater rod is helt nedsænket in water before plugging it into a power outlet. Operating the heater out of water can cause damage and pose a safety risk.
- After unplugging the heater, allow it to cool down in the water for 15-30 minutter before attempting to remove it from the aquarium. This prevents residual heat from causing damage or burns.
- Sørg for, at der er good water circulation around the heater to allow for even heat distribution and accurate temperature readings.
- Do not operate the heater if the power cord, controller, or heater rod shows any signs of damage.
- Dette produkt er beregnet til kun indendørs brug and specifically for aquariums. Do not use it for any other purpose.
- Unplug the heater from the power outlet before performing any maintenance, water changes, or handling the aquarium contents.
- Keep the external controller dry and away from water splashes.

6.2. Indstilling af temperaturen
- To unlock the controller and enter temperature setting mode, long press the child lock button (key icon) for 1-3 seconds. The current temperature display will begin flashing, indicating it is ready for adjustment.
- Tryk på temperature cycle button (up/down arrows icon) repeatedly to adjust the desired temperature. Each press will change the temperature by 0.5°F or 0.5°C. The available setting range is 59°F-94°F (15°C-34°C).
- After you stop operating the controller for approximately 3 seconds, the device will automatically enter the child lock state, preventing accidental changes to the set temperature.
6.3. Skift af temperaturenheder (°F/°C)
Tryk på F/C knap on the controller to toggle between Fahrenheit (°F) and Celsius (°C) temperature displays.
6.4. Intelligent Heating Operation
The AQQA heater features an intelligent constant temperature system:
- When the water temperature is lower than the set temperature, the heater will automatically activate and warm the water.
- Once the water temperature reaches the set temperature, the heater will switch to a low-power mode to maintain the temperature within a 0.5°F/°C difference from the set point, optimizing energy efficiency.
