Function description
B
Path of the water: Drawn in by a pump into the pump
unit, the water flows through the filter modules, ar-
ranged above each other in stages to form the filter
unit. Each filter module is equipped with a foam filter
and/or filter fleece (top filter module). The water en-
ters the filter module through the inlet on the side and
exits through the small flow-out nozzles or the central
outlet, depending on the position of the outlet control
knob.
BioPlus Thermo: The water is heated by a heater on its
way through the filter unit.

By additionally purchasing an OASE heater HeatUp it is
possible to extend BioPlus to BioPlus Thermo. After re-
moval of the cap, simply insert the selected HeatUp
(see following table), which is suitable for the BioPlus
and the size of the aquarium, into the heater chamber.

The supplied suction cups serve for fastening the unit
to a clean, smooth surface.
• Push the suction cups into the mounting holes of
the pump unit with a twisting movement.
– Pay attention to the alignment of the tab (it
should point upwards or to the side).
• Fasten the unit in a corner of the aquarium: Ensure
that the flow-out nozzles are just below the surface
of the water.
COMMISSIONING/START-UP
E, B
• Route each power connection cable such that it
forms a drip loop.
• BioPlus Thermo: Adjust the temperature at the
thermo-control heater HeatUp (separately enclosed
instructions).
Switching on: Connect the unit to the mains. The unit
switches on immediately. When the unit is switched
on, it takes several minutes for the air to escape from
the unit (this makes a noise).
• Use the outlet control knob to determine which wa-
ter outlet is used (central outlet or flow-out noz-
zles).
Switching off: Disconnect the unit from the mains.
Remedy
Check the mains voltage.
