Make sure that the O-rings are properly seated in the corresponding groove in the housing in the quartz
glass socket. Grease the O-rings with Vaseline if required. Push the quartz glass completely into the housing
of the lamp. Make sure that the nose of the quartz glass tube and the notch of the UVC cover are positioned
correctly. Check that the protective cap of the tube is fitted. Carefully push the lamp holder with the UVC
tube into the quartz glass.
Caution!
Do not touch UVC tubes directly with your hands; put on cotton gloves!
Do not dispose of old, broken UVC tubes in the household waste. Consult your local disposal company.
Do not use any sharp-edged tools. If the quartz glass piston or O-rings are faulty, they must always be
replaced.
Functional check of the UVC clarifier
You can check the function of the UVC tube by the bluish shimmer on the transparent intermediate ring of
the UVC clarifier (can be seen more easily with the filter cap removed).
This check works best in low light.
If the UVC tube does not light up, the UVC clarifier may not have been assembled correctly. Check this using
the installation instructions above.
The UVC tube only lights up when the clarifier is completely assembled.

Protect your replaceable pond filter from freezing!
