Installing and connecting the aerator pump
N O T E
When installing the unit, ensure that it
• is located outside the aquarium
• is not placed on or over the aquarium
• cannot fall into the water or move out of position.
Damage resulting from incorrect installation is not ba-

or warranty.
How to proceed:

return valve should fail.
2. Connect the connection cable to the separate
socket of the plug-in transformer but do not yet
connect the plug-in transformer to the mains
socket. First complete the start-up prepara-
tions.(→ Commissioning/start-up)
