Maintenance

The Aquascape Automatic Dosing System requires very little
maintenance. When replacing water treatments take a few
seconds to inspect and clean the tubing of any debris that
is trapped or has formed in the tubing. A soft pipe cleaner
available at most hobby stores can be used to clean the
tubing.
The pump cartridge located on the underside of the
control panel is a consumable part that may wear out over
time reducing the accuracy of the dosing system. It is
recommended to replace the pump cartridge once each
year (Pump Kit Item#96040) Please see replacement parts
for more information.
Do not operate at temperatures below 40°F / 4°C doing so
will void the warranty
Your Aquascape Automatic Dosing System and
liquid water treatments are not designed to be
operated during freezing temperatures. The unit
is equipped with an internal protection thermostat
that will shut off the dosing pump at temperatures below
40°F / 4°C. Remove the dosing system during winter
freezing temperatures and store the dosing system in a frost
free location.

Troubleshooting

• The pump does not seem to be pumping the liquid
treatment from the pouch into my pond or fountain.
– Make sure there is power coming to the unit.
– Check to make sure that the check valve is in the
correct orientation.
–Make sure the tubing inside the dosing system and
discharge tubing to the water feature is not kinked
– Make sure to hold down the X2 dosing button to
prime the system, depending on the length of the tubing
going to your pond or fountain it may take several
minutes for the new treatment to work its way to the
point of application.
– Listen closely you should be able to hear the pump
turning if it's working correctly.
– If it still doesn't work it may be time to replace the
pump cartridge.

– Check that the transformer is plugged in.
– Try replacing the transformer, please note that the
Aquascape Automatic Dosing System runs on 12 low
