Important!
Never look directly at the UV light - the filter's safety switch will
turn the bulb off when you remove the motor, but alway unplug your filter
before removing it as a precaution.
Follow steps 1-4 from Impeller and Shaft maintenance
section.
To remove the UV bulb, hold the base of the bulb and
firmly pull upwards to remove from the socket.

Add your replacement bulb and follow step 6 and 7 of
Impeller and Shaft maintenance section.
Filter Maintenance
In general, it is recommended to disconnect your filter and clean the pipes,
impeller and filter media monthly. Pipework will become blocked with waste
and protein slime over time, so regular cleaning
important for optimal performance.
The frequency of how often you will need to clean and inspect your unit of
course will depend on a lot of factors like how dirty the water is when you first
start using your filter, the volume of your water and also how many fish you have.
How often you feed your fish and how long your lighting is on for will also affect
how quickly your aquarium water gets dirty and will need to be taken into
consideration when planning how often to clean your filter.
To clean the outside of the filter, you can periodically wipe with a damp cloth
(use a cloth dampened with water from your aquarium, never use any chemical
products or detergents). Lemon juice can also be used to removing any
limescale build-up. Rinse thoroughly afterwards to remove any acidic residue.
Flow Rate Adjuster
Sometimes delicate fish and plants require a gentler water flow. The filter's
flow rate adjuster allows you to slow the flow of water whilst maintaining
filtration efficiency. When the flow rate is decreased, up to 50% of water within
the filter chamber is re-filtered several times, purifying the water further and
creating a clean and clear aquarium.
It is also recommended to reduce the water flow rate during feeding. This
results in greater food consumption and less waste.
