5. STARTING UPTHE SYSTEM
5.1. Routine operation
WARNING
To avoid electric risk, each power cable of the electric
devices has to show a drip loop positioned lower than
the plug-outlet connection point in order to prevent any
drop from reaching such point.
1) Read the warnings in Chap. 1.
2) After having connected the plug of each electric device verify the
operation of the same (in case of malfunction refer to chap. 7):
• Water should ow out of the delivery.
• The warning light of the thermal heater should turn on if the
water temperature is lower than the setpoint.
• The programming timer should be on, with its two rst digits
ashing.
5.1.1. Programming the timer and lighting system
PURE LED aquariums are equipped with a new digital timer with a
simple interface (g. 20) which has several functions:
• Light on / off in manual mode.
• Light on / off in automatic mode, at set times.
• Rolling FiltrationTimer (RFT), which reminds the user to replace
the 3ACTION cartridge every 15 days to keep the aquarium in
the best condition.
The timer has three touch sensitive buttons, 4 status icons and 4
digital digits. If you set automatic light on/off times, the unit runs a
daily cycle with the following steps:
1) Day light on, the brightness slowly increases over around 30
minutes (dawn effect).
2) Day light off, the brightness slowly decreases over around 30
minutes (dusk effect).
3) Once the day light has turned off completely, the blue night light
turns on for about 3 hours (moon effect).
4) After three hours, the system shuts off the night light too and all
lights stay off until the next daily cycle starts.
You can always turn the light on and off manually, even if the timer is
set to automatic mode.
The timer is equipped with a lock function to prevent accidental pres-
sure of the keys. Key locking is activated automatically after 3 min-

utes of inactivity.The locked status is signaled by the “bloc” message
that appears as soon as the block is activated and at each subse-
quent pressing of any keys.To remove the locked status and access
the timer functions, it is necessary to press the , and keys
quickly in sequence. Unlocking is conrmed by the appearance of
4 dashes on the clock digits for a few moments. If during the pro-
gramming phase the current time or the on/off times settings are not
completed, the lock will not activate after 3 minutes of key inactivity.
There is also a demo mode (DEMO), which simulates the complete
daily cycle in a few seconds to highlight the potential off the led
lighting system when controlled by the integrated timer (point F).
IMPORTANT
Turning the light off manually with the button on the Timer and
turning the light off automatically at the set time do not disconnect
the lighting unit from the power supply.
The PURE LED aquarium timer does not need batteries. If there is a
mains power failure, the system maintains the user settings for at
least 12 hours.

5.1.2. Filtration
CAUTION
Always close the lter cover after the necessary oper-
ations have been performed, to prevent algae growing
on the lters due to their exposure to direct light.
Aquarium water, to provide the best habitat for sh and plants, must
be ltered continuously with mechanical, biological and chemical
ltration.

11
EN
Mechanical ltration, which uses double layer sponges, removes
suspended particulates to keep the water clear. You can always
check the degree to which the sponges are soiled by simply opening
the lter cover.
Biological ltration, done by the nitrifying bacteria which grow in
the pores of the ceramic cylinders, minimises the level of toxic chem-
icals in the water, which are harmful for the aquatic fauna, transform-
ing the ammonia produced by the sh into nitrates. It takes around
4 weeks for a sufcient amount of bacteria for effective purication
to develop in the ltration media. This is why the rst month of the
aquarium’s life is critical, and the sh should be added only gradually,
to allow the nitrifying bacteria to take hold and multiply to a suitable
level.
Chemical ltration is done by the 3ACTION cartridge, which con-
tains a special mix of three ingredients:
• Activated carbon for purifying the previously ltered water from
bad odours, colourants, pharmacological residues and other un-
desired compounds.
• Anti-nitrates and anti-phosphates for effectively removing from
the water nitrates and phosphates, which are among the major
causes of algae proliferation.
Replacing the 3ACTION cartridge regularly (par. 6.2) allows the ma-
jor undesired compounds to be kept under control and effectively
combats the growth of algae and keeps the water clear and trans-
parent.
REMARK
In seawater aquaria, the nitrate removal function is not effective.
5.1.3. Heating
WARNING
To avoid the risk of burns:
After disconnecting the plug, let the hot parts of the
thermal heater (about 30 minutes) and of the lighting
unit (about 5 minutes) cool down, before handling
them. On the thermal heater, the warning light indi-
cates only that the heating phase is active. When the
warning light is off, it does not mean that the thermal
heater is cool.
CAUTION
The thermal heater is factory calibrated. Variables like
low ambient temperature, large temperature uctua-
tions, lack of covers, positioning of the product close
to cooling sources, may require a higher power to pro-
vide for a better temperature control.
Prevent the bottom (sand or other material), plants and
any other items present in the aquarium from getting
in contact with the thermal heater. It is necessary to
assure a free water circulation around the glass tube.
Install the product close to the pump (g.9) to ensure
that the heated water is distributed evenly and com-
pletely throughout the aquarium.
The thermal heater allows adjusting aquarium water temperature
(from 18°C to 31°C) using the adjustment knob referred to the grad-
uated scale (g. 8). Once it has been started up for the rst time and
the water has reached the setpoint, the thermal heater will keep the
temperature constant by turning off and on as needed. Wait for the
water to reach the temperature set on the thermal heater before put-
ting sh or other animals into the aquarium. Check the temperature
with an aquarium thermometer (not provided).
REMARK
The thermal heater only guarantees water temperature control
when the set temperature is higher than the ambient temperature.
The maximum temperature rise (Δt) of water in relation to the am-
bient temperature is around 10 °C.
5.2. In case of power failure
Power failures have the following effects:
• Gradual reduction, after a few hours, of the effectiveness of the
biological lter, thus potentially damaging the aquarium eco-sys-
tem.
• The timer may need reprogramming if the power failure lasts
more than 12 hours or so.
• The water temperature may fall in proportion to the duration of
the power failure.
For malfunctions, refer to Chap. 7.
