ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
EN
1. Take the automatic feeder out of the packaging and check that all the parts are present
(see parts list).
2. Attach the bracket at the point where you wish to hang the automatic feeder.
3. Attach the control box in the most suitable position. When positioning the control box,
remember to first pass the wiring and the control box through the suspension bracket so
that the electric lead hangs beneath the unit. See drawing.
4. Place the feeder in the bracket, fill with the preferred food (7 litres of fish pellets 2 - 9 mm)
and close the lid.
5. Insert the plug into an earthed wall socket that is fitted with an earth leakage current
circuit-breaker.
FUNCTIONS
The automatic feeder can be used in two different ways.
1. Internal feeding time settings
With the internal feeding time settings up to 24 feeds a day can be set, each with a
maximum duration of 600 seconds. For settings, see 'Settings C'.
You can easily navigate/scroll through the settings by means of the 'up' and 'down' keys.
2. External feeding time settings
With the external feeding time function the feeder can be set to dispense food by
switching the power supply on and off. The device will continue to dispense food while it is
receiving 230V, but if the power supply is interrupted it will stop. With this function one or
more automatic feeders can be operated manually or fully automatically. This function can
be switched on and off with the control keys. See 'Settings D and E' for more information
about switching continuous dispensing on and off.
Initial use
When the automatic feeder is switched on for the first time by inserting the plug into the
socket, the display shows '00:00'. This means that the time must first be set. See 'Settings'.

Attention! In the event of a power cut/interruption the time at which the interruption
occurred and the dispensing settings will be stored. When the power is restored the
device will restart at the stored time and continue to dispense food at the set feeding
times. The length of the power interruption will be the difference between the time
shown and the current time. The device will thus continue to dispense food as set, but
later. The time must be corrected manually. See 'Settings B'.
