Follow these steps to properly set up your Tetra Whisper Air Pump:
- Отпакувајте ги компонентите: Carefully remove the air pump and all accessories from the packaging. The package includes the air pump, a check valve, and a T-connector.
- Поврзете ја цевката за воздух: Attach standard aquarium air tubing (not included) to the air outlet on the pump.
- Инсталирајте го неповратниот вентил: Insert the check valve into the air tubing. The check valve prevents water from siphoning back into the air pump during a power outage, protecting the pump from water damage. Ensure the check valve is oriented correctly to allow airflow towards the aquarium.
- Камен за поврзување на воздух/додаток: Attach the other end of the air tubing to an air stone, ornament, or other air-driven aquarium accessory (not included).
- Поставување: Position the air pump above the water level of your aquarium. If the pump must be placed below the water level, ensure the check valve is properly installed and functioning to prevent back-siphoning. The flexible rubber feet provide a stable platform and help absorb vibrations.
- Поврзување за напојување: Plug the air pump into a suitable electrical outlet.

4. Одржување
Редовното одржување обезбедува долготрајност и оптимални перформанси на вашата воздушна пумпа.
- Надворешно чистење: Periodically wipe the exterior of the pump with a damp cloth to remove dust and debris. Ensure the pump is unplugged before cleaning.
- Филтер за воздух: Check the air intake filter (if accessible) for blockages and clean or replace as needed. A clogged filter can reduce airflow and increase noise.
- Diaphragm Inspection: Over time, the internal diaphragm may wear out, leading to reduced airflow or increased noise. If this occurs, the diaphragm may need to be replaced. Refer to the internal view слика за локацијата на компонентата.
- Проверете го вентилот: Inspect the check valve regularly to ensure it is not clogged and is allowing proper one-way airflow. Replace if damaged or blocked.
