5. Insert the output nozzle with venturi vent into the output on the filter body, making

Note: In order to have the airflow /venturi work properly, it must remain above water.
Keep this in mind when putting the filter into its final position. Turning the valve located

7. The filter can now be fitted into the aquarium. Grasp the filter by the sides and
hold it into position. When properly positioned push against the filter adhering
