system. In the "COMBI" version, in combination with a NEWA Therm heater, it becomes a superb
and independent thermo-filtering station.
INSTALLATION - DIRECTIONS FOR USE
The NEWA Duetto filter can be placed both vertically and horizontally (fig. 2) depending on the
water level and on the kind of tank. The outlet deflector, completely rotating, allows maximum
versatility. However, it is advisable to place it vertically with the outlet on the water surface so
as to create a useful surface movement and a light bottom current facilitating waste product
intake. The suction cups already mounted on a side of the filter, if necessary, can be removed
and transferred to the opposite side using the central mount at the bottom and opening the two
covered upper mounts. To mount the filter simply press the side with the suction cups against the
aquarium glass after cleaning the glass to remove algae or other residue.
NOTE: Before setting in motion it is advisable to rinse filtering materials in running water.
USAGE AND ADJUSTMENT
FLOW: Flow can be adjusted from minimum to maximum (see technical data). To adjust it,
separate the motor body from the container (fig. 3) and rotate the valve (fig. 4).
AERATION: For a better oxigenation and gas exchange use the aeration device as follows (fig. 5):
Lift the air intake plug. If this is above the water surface, the pump now draws air inside the
impeller chamber and mixes it with water. To obtain air when the intake is under the water surface,
use the small adapter which can be directly linked to the air filter or common airline tubing. The air
filter functions also as an air valve to adjust air volume.
NOTE: The aeration device, when working, causes a reduction of water flow. The volume of air is
reduced when water flow is adjusted towards minimum and/or if the air intake is placed a long
way under the water surface.
INTERCHANGEABLE OUTLET
(fig. 7): The flat output can be removed and replaced by the
tube adapter supplied as standards or by elbows which are commonly found in stores such as:
- elbow Ø 15 and Ø 12,5
- Ø 15 coupling for Ø 12 stiff tubes
- flexible tubes Ø 12 x 16
To remove the flat output rotate it with outlet towards the air intake and lift it by pulling up on
the outlet spout (fig. 6).
MAINTENANCE
MOTOR AND IMPELLER: It may be periodically necessary to clean any deposit. Proceed as follows:
•
Separate the motor from the container (fig. 3).
the rotor seat and rinse it with warm water.
impeller cover is replaced by inserting first the narrow side and then the large side (fig. 9).
AERATION DEVICE (fig. 10): If plugging of the air passage hole occurs, clean with the nylon wire
which is supplied or with any thin metal wire.
MECHANICAL PRE-FILTER SCREEN (fig. 11): Periodically rinse the sponge in running warm water
to remove particles and replace it every 6 months or when it is damaged.

Take away the impeller cover (fig. 8).

Replace rotor and cover paying attention that the
CHEMICAL- ADSORBENT CARTRIDGE (carbon and zeolite) (fig. 13):
The unit is mechanically sealed and not refillable.It should be replaced every month, depending on
conditions in the aquarium. Ask for the replacement cartridge from your retailer.
BIOLOGICAL FILTER (fig. 12): The biological filter cartridge must not routinely be removed
during the maintenance of the other parts. This will prevent damage of the bacterial colonies. If it
becomes necessary to clean, rinse it very gently in water from the tank transferred to a small bowl,
dispose of the dirty rinse water. DO NOT RETURN IT TO AQUARIUM. This avoid damage of bacterial
colonies due to the chlorine presente in tap water.
NOTE: To increase the volume of the biological filter, it is possible to replace the chemicaladsorbent
cartridge with an additional sponge which is available at your retailer.
"COMBI" VERSION
THERMO-FILTERING STATION COMPLETE WITH NEWA Therm HEATER
Every NEWA Duetto can be turned into "COMBI" version using a special support, available at your
retailer. This support can be installed on two sides of the motor body. It is studied on purpose to
support NEWA Therm heater. Installation is simple: first, insert the NEWA Therm into the support
and then insert the support into the special guides of the motor body (fig. 14).
Then verify correct installation by checking line-up with the body motor (fig. 15).
PRECAUTION D'EMPLOI
Le filtre submersible NEWA Duetto peut être utilisée à l'interieur aussi bien en eau douce ou
en eau de mer, dans un aquarium ou un terrarium. Toute autre utilisation n'est pas admise, par
conséquent ne rentre pas dans le cadre de la responsabilité du fabricant.
Cette NEWA Duetto est conforme aux normes officielles de sécurité EN 60335-2-41.
1. ATTENTION: Débrancher ou éteindre tous les appareils se trouvant dans l'aquarium ou dans le
bassin de jardin avant d'installer la pompe ou d'effectuer une opération d'entretien quelconque.
2. Vérifier si le voltage de la pompe mentionné sur l'étiquette correspond à celui du secteur.
3. Le cordon d'alimentation ne peut pas être réparé ni remplacé, il faut remplacer la pompe si le
cordon est abîmé.
4. La pompe peut être utilisée en eau douce ou en eau de mer, la température du fluide ne
dépassant pas une température de 35° C.
5. Cet pompe ne doit pas fonctionner à sec.
6. La pompe peut être plongée dans l'eau jusqu'à une profondeur maximum de 1 m, comme
