Setting into operation
Attention: Do not fill the aquarium to its maximum height
since the water level varies through the change of water
level in the filter.
Open the tap connector of the intake pipe (IN) and establish
the syphon. Alternatively use the EHEIM suction device (order
no. 4003540) or the priming aid (order no. 4005540, ø 16 mm).
The filter will then fill up with water. After that, open the tap
connector of the outlet pipe (OUT).

Set the filter into operation by
plugging in the mains socket.
As soon as the pump has
started up, the water level in
the filter canister must sink
down to the lower switch
point.
Once this point has been
reached, the floating control
valve will automatically close
the suction intake, and the
filter canister will fill up again with water. Meanwhile, a small,
continuously filtered amount of water will be directed back into
the aquarium through the bypass opening, so as to keep the
impeller lubricated. The water level inside the floater compart-
ment does not rise. Only when the upper filter media container
is filled with water, does the floater compartment get filled with
water through a slit in the floating control valve; now the latter
will open the suction intake and the filter empties again.

Attention:
Only when the filter is working smoothly should the
heater's mains plug be connected to the wall socket.
Never operate the heater when dry.
The display on the thermostat shows the actual water
temperature in the aquarium. Use the adjusting knob to
select the temperature you desire (e.g. 27° C). A symbol
(
) indicates when the heater is in operation. If the sym-
bol goes off, the set temperature has been reached and
the heater is automatically switched off. If the temperature
in the tank sinks below the set temperature, the heater
automatically turns itself on again. By slightly turning the
adjusting knob, a precise adjustment can be achieved.
Attention: When first installing the filter or readjusting the
temperature, the temperature shown in the display will take
some time to reach the required value. The ambient tem-
perature is also significant for time delays.
Should the power supply be cut off, the value indicated on
the display changes and the heater stops working. When
the power is restored the heater works normally.
