Opening the filter housing and cleaning the different filters
 E, F, G
Unscrew the branch valve (12) and the attachment elements. Pull the clamps on both sides of the bottom strainer cas-
ing (2) to the side and lift off the top strainer casing (1). Remove the foam filter (3) and the UVC clarifying unit including
pump (20), and the fine foam filters (22), bio surface elements (23) and the gravel bag (24).
Clean the bottom strainer casing (2) and the top strainer casing (1) with clear water using a brush. Wash out foam fil-
ters (3, 22), bio-surface elements (23) and the gravel bag (24) under running water. Do not use chemical cleaning
agents as they would kill the micro-organisms in the different filter media. At the beginning, this entails a reduced filter
capacity.
Cleaning the pump
 H, I
Unscrew pump (28) from the UVC water housing (26). Unscrew the pump lid (27) counter-clockwise (bayonet closure)
and remove rotor (29). Clean all components using clean water and a brush. After cleaning the pump, reassemble in
the reverse order.
Opening and cleaning the UVC water housing
 J
N O T E
For safety reasons, the UVC lamp can only be switched on when the unit head has been correctly fitted into
the casing.
The UVC water housing (26) is fastened to the unit head (31) by means of a bayonet closure. Press on the engage-
ment lug (30) at the unit head (31), turn the UVC water housing (26) counter-clockwise and carefully pull it off the unit
head (31). Clean the UVC water housing (26) under running water. Check the quartz glass (33) for damage and clean
its outer face with a moist cloth.
Note: For an optimum filter performance, we recommend to replace the UVC lamp after approx. 8000 operating hours.
Refer to 'Replace UVC lamp'.
