Installation
(1) Flip all four EZ clips open and push upwards. With the help of the two recessed lid handles,
the pump head of the filter can be easily lifted off.
(2) Remove fine filter pad and take out each media container by grabbing the retractable handles
and pulling upwards.
(3) Fill the filter media containers with EHEIM filter media to achieve best results. Fill the bottom
container with EHEIM MECH, but leave just enough space so that the blue filter pad can be
placed in the container under the retractable handle. Fill the second container with the bio-
logical media SUBSTRATpro to just below the edge.
Attention: Do not overfill. Do not clog flow-through pipe.
(4) Thoroughly rinse the filter media in the containers under running water until all cloudiness has
disappeared. Place the container with the blue filter pad in the filter canister and firmly press
downwards until it rests on the support frames. This guarantees an hermetic seal between
media containers and canister.
(5) Insert the second media container in the same manner. Make sure the flow-through pipe open-
ings line up on top of each other and that the 2 rubber seals are correctly fitted on the open-
ings, so as to achieve a hermetic seal.
Lower each retractable handle and ensure that both media containers lie flush on top of each
other. Then insert the fine filter pad (white) in such a manner that the round cut-out lines up
with the respective flow-through pipe opening.
Attention: Fine filter pad (white) should not be placed under the retractable handle of the
media container.
Thermofilter:
(6) By thermofilter version please check that the flow-through pipe openings are not
placed directly above the heating element.

(7) Check to ensure that the sealing gasket on the pump head of the filter is not soiled and that
is properly placed into its groove.
