Safety information
Tetra has manufactured this unit to the current state of the art and the valid safety regulations. Despite of the
above, hazards for persons and assets can emanate from this unit if it is used in an improper manner or not in
accordance with its intended use, or if the safety instructions are ignored.
For safety reasons, children and young persons under 16 years of age as well as persons who cannot recognise
possible danger or who are not familiar with these operating instructions, are not permitted to use the unit!
Please keep these operating instructions in a safe place! Also hand over the operating instructions when
passing the unit on to a new owner. Ensure that all work with this unit is only carried out in accordance with
these instructions.
The combination of water and electricity can lead to danger to life and limb, if the unit is incorrectly connected
or misused.
Attention! Dangerous ultra-violet radiation.
The radiation of the UVC lamp is dangerous to eyes and skin! For this reason, the unit can only be switched
on with the housing fitted (a safety switch is installed). Never operate the unit lamp outside of its housing.
Never immerse the filter in water! Always disconnect the power supply of these and all other units located in
and around water prior to performing work on the units! Only operate the units when plugged into an earthed
socket. The latter must have been installed in accordance with the valid national regulations. Ensure that the
protective earth wire is led to the unit. Only use cables approved for outside use. Never use installations,
adapters, extension or connection cables without protective earth contact! The cross section of power
connection cables must not be smaller than the rubber cables identified with H05 RNF. Extension cables must
meet DIN VDE 0620. Ensure that the units are supplied with a rated residual current of max. 30 mA via a residual
current­operating system (FI or RCD resp.). Electrical installations at garden ponds and swimming pools must
meet the international and national regulations valid for installers. Compare the electrical values of the power
supply with those on the type plate on the packaging or on the units. Protect the connection cable when burying
to avoid damage. Protect the plug connections and all connection points from moisture. Never operate the unit
if the cable or housing are defective! Disconnect the power! The power connection cables of these units cannot
be replaced. Replace the units (unit components) concerned if the cables are damaged. Do not carry or pull
the units by their connection cables. Never open the unit housings or their attendant components, unless this
is explicitly mentioned in the operating instructions. Never carry out technical changes to the units. Only use
original spare parts and accessories for the units. Only allow authorised customer service outlets to perform
repairs. For your own safety, consult a qualified electrician if you have questions or encounter problems! Do not
operate the units if persons are in the water! Never run the units without water! Never use the pump for fluids
other than water! Ensure that no leaks at the filter can occur. Danger of completely emptying the pond.
Installation, assembly (A)
For further information on installation and operation, please consult your aquatics outlet or contact Tetra on

Tetra recommends hoses suitable for a minimum pressure of 0.5 bar.
Cut the stepped hose adapters such that the connection opening coincides with the hose diameter. This helps
avoid pressure loss.
