Istruzioni di installazione

1. Disimballare il filtro: Rimuovere con attenzione tutti i componenti dalla confezione.

3. Attach Spray Bar (Optional): If desired, attach the spray bar to the filter outlet. The spray bar helps distribute filtered water more evenly and enhances oxygenation.
4. Posizionare il filtro: Place the filter inside the aquarium, ideally in a corner. Use the provided suction cups or mounting brackets to secure it firmly to the aquarium glass. Ensure the filter is fully submerged and the water level is above the minimum operating line indicated on the unit.

6. Connettiti all'alimentazione: Once the filter is securely installed and fully submerged, connect the power plug to a suitable electrical outlet.

Istruzioni per l'uso

1. Avvio iniziale: After plugging in, the filter will begin to operate immediately. Ensure water is flowing smoothly from the outlet.
2. Regolazione della portata: The Superfish Corner-Flow 400 features an adjustable flow switch. Locate the switch on the filter unit and slide it to increase or decrease the water flow rate (200-400 L/h). A lower flow rate is recommended for smaller or more sensitive fish, while a higher flow rate enhances oxygenation and circulation.

3. Monitoraggio delle prestazioni: Regularly check the water clarity and the filter's output. Reduced flow or cloudy water may indicate that the filter media needs cleaning or replacement.

Manutenzione

Regular maintenance is crucial for the longevity and efficiency of your filter and the health of your aquarium.

1. Controllo settimanale: Visually inspect the filter for any blockages in the intake grilles. The fine intake grilles and sponges are designed to prevent small fish and shrimp from entering, but they can accumulate debris.
2. Pulizia mensile (o secondo necessità):
   • Scollegare il filtro dall'alimentazione.
   • Rimuovere con cautela il filtro dall'acquario.
   • Aprire il filtro casing and remove the filter media cartridge.
   • Rinse the filter sponges and other mechanical filter components in old aquarium water (from a water change) to preserve beneficial bacteria. Do not use tap water directly, as chlorine can kill these bacteria.
   • Clean the impeller and impeller housing. Remove any debris or algae that may have accumulated.
   • Reassemble the filter and place it back into the aquarium.
   • Ricollegarsi all'alimentazione.
3. Sostituzione del materiale filtrante: The activated carbon and zeolite in the filter cartridge will become saturated over time. Replace the filter media cartridge every 2-4 weeks, or as indicated by reduced filtration performance. Always replace with genuine Superfish replacement media.
