1. Attach the filter hanger to the track on the back of the filter

by aligning the water drops as shown (Fig. 1).

2.

Clip the filter to the back wall of your aquarium frame (Fig. 2). If the hanger

doesn't fit, you may need to order separate suction cups (see spare parts list

on back panel to order).

3. Insert the Filter Cartridge and Bio-Foam

®

as shown (Fig. 3). (Note: the front of

the Bio-Foam

®

is marked “front” and should face the front of the Internal Filter.)

4. See diagram for positioning and max and min water levels. To adjust the

height of your filter, simply slide the filter up or down along the hanger track.

If you can't position the filter to your desired water level, you may need

to order suction cups (see spare parts list to order). For low water level

terrariums, you may set the filter on a ledge or aquarium bottom (Fig. 5).

5. Once the filter and water level is within the recommended parameters,

plug in the filter. Avoid using sand in the aquarium as this clogs the filter.

• Avoid placing sand in the aquarium when using this filter.

• Unplug the unit to clean the filter with a clean wet cloth. If needed,

add white distilled vinegar to the cloth, and rinse thoroughly.

• If the Bio-Foam

®

pad is clogged, gently wash with room temperature water

treated with AquaSafe

®

water conditioner to protect beneficial bacteria.

• When medicating fish, remove the carbon from the Bio-Bag

®

, as

carbon absorbs most medications.

• To service the impeller yearly, or if the motor is noisy, unplug the filter and remove it from the aquarium.

Remove the motor (see illustration A), open its cover, and flush debris with clean water. Soak the impeller in

distilled white vinegar using a cotton swab to wipe debris, and rinse. Replace the motor into the filter and install

it in the aquarium using the instructions in this manual.

• It takes a few weeks for new aquarium water to cycle. “Cycling” a fish tank means growing healthy bacteria

on a new filtration system so it filters out dangerous toxins. Tetra

®

SafeStart

®

aquarium bacteria cycles your

aquarium immediately, so you can add fish right away.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING – To guard against injury, basic safety precautions should be observed, including the following:

READ AND FOLLOW ALL

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

DANGER – TO AVOID POSSIBLE ELECTRIC SHOCK, special care should be taken since water

is employed in the use of aquarium equipment. For each of the following situations, do not attempt repairs by yourself; return the

appliance to an authorized service facility for service or discard the appliance:

1. Unplug the appliance before installing, repositioning, cleaning, or

removing the appliance.

2. If the appliance shows any sign of abnormal water leakage, immediately

unplug it from the power source.

3. Carefully examine the appliance after installation. It should not be plugged in.

4. Do not operate any appliance if it has a damaged cord or plug, or if it is

malfunctioning or has been dropped or damaged in any manner.

5. To avoid the possibility of the appliance plug or receptacle getting wet, position

aquarium stand and tank to one side of a wall-mounted receptacle to prevent

water from dripping onto the receptacle or plug. A “drip loop,” shown in the

figure below, should be arranged by the user for each cord connecting an

aquarium appliance to a receptacle. The “drip loop” is the part of the cord below

the level of the receptacle, or the connector if an extension cord is used, to prevent

water traveling along the cord and coming in contact with the receptacle.

If the plug or receptacle does get wet, DON’T unplug the cord. Disconnect the

fuse or circuit breaker that supplies power to the appliance. Then,

unplug and examine for presence of water in the receptacle.

6. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.

7. To avoid injury, do not contact moving parts or hot parts such as heaters, reflectors, lamp bulbs, and the like.

8. Always unplug an appliance from an outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning.

Never yank cord to pull plug from outlet. Grasp the plug and pull to disconnect.

9. Do not use an appliance for other than intended use. The use of attachments not recommended or sold by the appliance

manufacturer may cause an unsafe condition.

10. Do not install or store the appliance where it will be exposed to the weather or to temperatures below freezing.

11. Make sure an appliance mounted on a tank is securely installed before operating it.

12. Read and observe all the important notices on the appliance.

13. If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with a proper rating should be used. A cord rated for less amperes or watts than

the appliance rating may overheat. Care should be taken to arrange the cord so that it will not be tripped over or pulled.

14. This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). As a safety feature, this plug will fit in a polarized

outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified

electrician. Never use with an extension cord unless plug can be fully inserted. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
