Maintenance And Cleaning; Cleaning Foam Filters - Oase BioSmart 5000 Instrucciones De Uso

- English -
Start-up
Important:
● Prior to starting up the unit, check that all clamps on the internal cover are closed. The clamps for pond additives can
be used to supply additives such as filter starters to the filter and the pond (optional).
● The Biotec filter is a biological filter system and requires several weeks after its first installation to reach its full
biological effect, and must be run continuously to retain the biological efficiency.
● Switching the pump on: Connect power plug to the socket.

Maintenance and cleaning

Attention! Dangerous electrical voltage.
Possible consequences: Death or serious injuries.
Protective measures:
• Prior to reaching into the water, disconnect the power supply to all units used in the water.
• Disconnect the power plug prior to carrying out work on the unit.
● Only clean the unit when required, do not use chemical cleaning agents to permit the filter biology to
optimally develop, knowing that cleaning agents kill the bacteria in the foam filters.
● Clean the filter system immediately when the float switch in the water level indicator becomes visible
from outside.
● Switch off the pump and open the unit cover.

Cleaning foam filters

1. To mechanically clean the foam filters, pull on the
cleaning handles and "pump" several times neither
too strong nor too fast.
2. If necessary, unscrew the cover cap from the sludge
drain, open the slide valve, allow the water to drain
completely, close the slide valve again; repeat the
cleaning process 2 to 3 times, if necessary.
● If necessary, remove the foam filters and clean more
thoroughly in a bucket of pond water. To this effect,
press the engagement of the cleaning handles to the
side until the connection to the inner cover
disengages.
● Release the clamps at the inner cover and remove
cover.
3. Pull the foam filters from the foam filter holder, spray
clean the container, the inner cover, the cover and the
foam filters with clean water.
● Reinsert the cleaned foam filters in the foam filter
holders (the green foam filter in the black foam holder).
