3. Skille ad: The pump body is detachable. Gently separate the filter housing from the pump unit.
4. Rengør filtersvamp: Remove the biochemical sponge filter. Rinse it thoroughly with old aquarium water (not tap water, to preserve beneficial bacteria) to remove accumulated debris. Replace if heavily worn or damaged.
5. Clean Impeller/Rotor: Access the pump's impeller/rotor. Clean it with a small brush to remove any debris or mineral buildup. This ensures quiet operation and efficient flow.
6. Clean UV Lamp (hvis relevant): If your model has a replaceable UV lamp, carefully clean the quartz sleeve surrounding it. Replace the UV lamp according to manufacturer recommendations (typically every 6-12 months) to maintain effectiveness.
7. Saml og genstart: Reassemble all components, ensuring they are securely fitted. Place the filter back into the aquarium, ensure it is fully submerged, and plug it back in.

7. Fejlfinding

• Ingen vandgennemstrømning: Check if the power cord is securely plugged in. Ensure the impeller is not blocked by debris and is spinning freely. Verify the water level in the tank is sufficient for the pump to operate.
• Reduceret vandgennemstrømning: Clean the filter sponge and impeller. Check for any blockages in the intake or output nozzles.
• Overdreven støj: Ensure the filter is fully submerged and securely attached to the tank. Clean the impeller as debris can cause rattling. Check for air trapped inside the filter housing.
• Green Water/Algae Persists: Ensure the UV lamp is functioning (some models have an indicator light). Replace the UV lamp if it's old or appears dim. Perform partial water changes and reduce light exposure if necessary.
