4. Refrain from placing aquariums and filters near household electronics like computers and TVs.

5. Regularly unplug the power cord to remove accumulated dust and grime for safety.

6. Avoid pinning or binding the power cord and altering or replacing switches. If the power cord is damaged, dispose of the product.

7. To keep the plug and socket dry, position the socket between 1.3 to 1.5 meters above the ground and safeguard the power cord. (A “U” shape placement is recommended).

8. Do not use extension cords to minimize the risk of electric shock from water overflow or leakage.

9. Keep the filter away from flammable materials like gasoline.

1. The filter must be installed at least 10 cm above the water level.

2. This product is equipped with a protection device to prevent motor overheating. The motor will stop running if it overheats due to empty running or debris blocking the water blades. The motor will resume operation once debris is removed and overheating is resolved. Please check for the following causes of overheating: reduced flow, kinked hoses, blocked water blades, etc.

3. Before use, double-check that the connecting hoses are correctly attached, and observe the operation for a while to ensure it runs smoothly.

4. This filter is designed exclusively for indoor ornamental fish tanks and should not be used for other purposes.

5. Do not lay the filter body on its side. Overly compact placement of filter media may decrease water flow.

6. Use the shortest and highest-quality hoses to minimize water resistance.

7. Regularly clean all components and replace filter media and other consumables to extend the motor’s lifespan.

8. Be vigilant as small fish may be sucked into the filter.

9. Do not use the product when frozen, as it may damage it.

10. Avoid running the product without water for extended periods, as it can cause permanent damage.

1. Insert the filter basket into the filter canister.

2. Make sure the red wire channel is correctly aligned with the corresponding clips on the canister’s base.

Mount the motor into the filter canister, ensuring the motor’s water intake aligns properly with the filter basket’s opening. Next, firmly press down on the motor and lock it in place with the pressure clasps.

Position the switch lever to the lowest water outlet setting (minimum water flow). Insert the switch into the two corresponding holes on the motor, and firmly press down on the lever to lock the switch in place on the motor’s top. After that, adjust the water flow to the maximum. Note: ① indicates the switch lever, and ② indicates the water flow control valve.

1. Attach the other end of the IN hose to the water intake elbow, extension pipe, basket strainer (surface oil film skimmer), and any additional fittings required.

2. Attach the other end of the OUT hose to the outlet elbow and the shower pipe.
