5. Упутство за употребу
- Подешавање протока воде: Use the flow regulation knob located on the top of the filter head to increase or decrease the water flow rate according to your aquarium's needs and inhabitants.
- Oxygenation (Venturi System): If using the Venturi system, adjust the air regulation silencer to control the amount of air introduced into the water, thereby regulating oxygen levels.
- Monitoring Filter Media: The transparent filter body allows for visual inspection of the filter media. When the media appears visibly clogged or water flow significantly reduces, it is time for maintenance.

6. Одржавање
Regular maintenance is crucial for the longevity and optimal performance of your Sicce Shark PRO 500 filter. The magnetic quick uncoupling system makes disassembly easy.
- Искључите напајање: Always unplug the filter from the power outlet before performing any maintenance.
- Remove Filter from Aquarium: Gently detach the filter from the aquarium glass using the MCS System.
- Disassemble Filter Body: The modular design allows for easy separation of filter compartments. Carefully uncouple the sections.
- Clean Filter Media:
- Remove the filter foams and rinse them thoroughly with old aquarium water (from a water change) to preserve beneficial bacteria. Do not use tap water directly as chlorine can kill these bacteria.
- If using additional media (e.g., ceramic rings, activated carbon), rinse or replace them as per their specific instructions.
- Чисто импелер: Periodically, the impeller and its housing may accumulate debris.
- Carefully remove the impeller cover.
- Extract the impeller and its ceramic shaft.
- Clean all parts with a soft brush and rinse with water.
- Reassemble the impeller and cover, ensuring all parts fit securely.
- Поново саставите и поново инсталирајте: Put the filter compartments back together, ensuring a secure fit. Reattach the filter to the aquarium glass and plug it back in.
