Fill the container with water (Figure C)
► Switch the Aquamax pump on prior to commissioning the FiltoMatic CWS. Container (3) has to be
filled with water.
Stop valve (17) needs to be open to enable the container to be filled. For this purpose, press the stop
valve (17) down against the stop.
As soon as the water level in the container (3) reaches the outlet (4), the filtered pond water returns into
the pond via the outlet (4).
For further settings of the FiltoMatic CWS, please read the following Chapter Operation.
Filling with biological filter starter (Figure C)
We recommend the OASE filter starter Biokick CWS (OASE Order No. 50295) for a fast growth of bacteria
populations. Micro-organisms colonise the filter system, multiply and ensure an enhanced quality of the
pond water by the decomposition of excess nutrients.
► Fill the quantity of Biokick CWS sufficient for the volume of your pond into the infill opening (20).
