2. PUMP OPERATING MODES
2.1 Manual mode
In manual mode, the user can switch the pump on or off manually,
according to when the pool is being used.
• When you switch the pump on, it launches a priming phase (
a ).
You can adjust this phase (speed and duration, section 4.2). Priming
may be interrupted during start up (section 3.2) or deactivated in the
settings.
• The pump speed then stabilizes to a constant rate
( b ) (stabilization to V2 by default). The user can choose and adjust
the speed (section 3.3).
• After switching off and then restarting, the pump will stabilize at the
last recorded rate.

2.2 Skimmer
The Skimmer function allows the pump to skim just the water's
surface, which is especially useful for preventing dirt from
accumulating and stagnating at the surface of the pool.
• The function is automatic: the pump will run at a higher speed
( c ) for a while and according to a set cycle - both of which you can
adjust.
• After running at a higher speed, the pump will adjust to its normal
rate - this is the case in both the Manual and Timer modes.
• You can deactivate the Skimmer function (see settings in
section 4.3).

2.3 Timer mode
When using the Timer mode, the pump is run automatically 24/7. The
user can program ( d ) the different speed presets. They are selected
depending on the installation (heating mode, energy-saving mode
etc.) and according to the times the pool is used.
• If the Skimmer function is activated, its sequence will superimpose
on the timer one.
• You can stop the pump (pause it) in the Timer mode. When you
start it up again, it will run at the speed of the current 'Timer' mode.
• For information on how to program the Timer mode, see section 4.5.
