Congratulations!
Congratulations for buying the X-Feeder.
The
sera X-Feeder
is a modern, closed automatic feeder
with integrated screw conveyor. It can be programmed in
many ways, and can feed both granules as well as flake food
crushed in advance for aquarium or terrarium care (young
terrapins). Due to its food container being sealed against
moisture from atmospheric air it can be used above an
aquarium. Aerating the food by an air pump is not necessary.
General function description
The X-Feeder is a modern automatic feeder that can be
programmed individually. 1 – 10 portions can be fed up to
4 times daily at any times freely selectable. A strong conveyor
drive delivers the food, be it granules or flakes, at feeding
time, and supplies it through the food opening, which then
closes immediately after. The device is hermetically sealed
and does not allow air moisture to enter. The included
accessories allow installation at/above all typical aquariums.

2. Children must not have access to batteries. Children
can swallow batteries. If the battery compartment
does not close properly any more, do not continue to
use the product and keep it out of the reach of

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1. The battery state should first be checked before use
after a longer break.
2. It is advisable to install new batteries before being
absent for a longer time.
3. Remove BOTH batteries from the battery compartment
before a longer non-usage period.
4. The time must be set anew after every battery change or
after switching between summer and winter time. The
automatic feeder does not replace a clock!
5. The delivered portion strongly depends on grain size and
evenness of the food, therefore test feeding must by all
means be conducted before being absent.
6. Remove food remainders from the food container before
a longer non-usage period. It is recommended to clean
the container thoroughly.
7. We recommend using alkaline batteries of good quality
for the X-Feeder.
8. The X-Feeder should be installed as far as possible from
the water current of the water pump or the air outlet of
the air pump.
