water.
14. (For North America only) This appliance has a polarized plug (one
blade is wider than the other). As a safety feature, this plug will fit
in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into
the outlet, reverse the plug. If the plug will still not fit fully into the
outlet, contact a qualified electrician to inspect the outlet and make
the needed alterations. Never use with an extension cord unless the
plug can be fully inserted. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
The Fluval P series is an automatic, submersible heater for use in indoor
aquariums. Without any adjustments needed, it is designed to reach and
maintain the set temperature of 24-26 ºC (76-78 ºF). The red indicator light
will illuminate when the heater is in use, and the heater will automatically
shut off when the water temperature reaches 24-26 ºC (76-78 ºF). The
exterior is made of a tough polymer so that it will not crack or break like
traditional glass sleeve heaters.
HEATER PERFORMANCE VARIABLES
This heater was designed to reach and maintain the set temperature of
24-26 ºC (76-78 ºF), provided that the maximum difference between the
ambient and set temperature is greater than 8 ºC (12 ºF). Variables such
as lower room temperature, wide temperature fluctuations, lack of an
aquarium cover, presence of pumps and filters or aquarium placement
in proximity to cooling sources may require a higher wattage for proper
control for the given tank size. If the set temperature is not reached in all
conditions, it will probably be necessary to increase the heating power.
We recommend monitoring aquarium temperature on a regular basis
with a reliable aquarium thermometer.
INSTALLATION
Generally, the heater should be placed at the rear of the aquarium,
preferably close to a source of water movement to ensure even and
thorough distribution of warmed water.
1. Position the heater in the aquarium and press suction cups firmly against
glass or plastic to adhere to the
aquarium wall.
2. Ensure heater remains completely
submersed at all times.
3. Allow heater to acclimatize to the
aquarium water temperature for 10
minutes before plugging it into the
electrical outlet.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
Unplug all appliances in the aquarium before placing
hands in the water. Unplug the heater and allow it to cool for at least
30 minutes before taking it out of the water.
Clean the heater regularly to remove deposits that could impair the heater
performance.
Deposits on the heater can be removed by soaking it in vinegar, then
rinsing with fresh water before repositioning it in the aquarium. DO NOT
USE chemical cleaners.
