2. Segurtasun-argibide garrantzitsuak

• Irakurri arretaz argibide guztiak aparatua erabili aurretik.
• Ez erabili tresnarik kablea edo entxufea hondatuta badu, gaizki funtzionatzen badu, erori edo edozein modutan kaltetu bada.
• Aparatuaren entxufea edo hargunea busti ez dadin, jarri akuarioaren euskarria eta depositua hormako hargune baten albo batera ura hargunera edo entxufean isuri ez dadin.
• A "drip loop" should be arranged by the user for each cord connecting an aquarium appliance to a receptacle. The drip loop is the part of the cord below the level of the receptacle, or the connector if an extension cord is used, to prevent water from traveling along the cord and coming into contact with the receptacle.
• Always unplug the appliance from the outlet when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning. Never yank cord to pull plug from outlet. Grasp the plug and pull to disconnect.
• Ez erabili aparatua aurreikusitako erabilera ez den beste ezertarako.
• Ez instalatu edo gorde aparatua eguraldiaren eraginpean egongo den lekuetan edo izozte azpiko tenperaturetan.
• Ensure the wave maker is fully submerged in water during operation.
• Mantendu haurren eskura.

4.2 Ezaugarri nagusiak

• 6 Wave Maker Modes: Constant, Pulse, Tide, Random, Quick, FWD/REV.
• Adjustable Wave Length and Flow Rate: Customize water movement for various aquarium needs.
• Rotatable Wide Wave Outlet: Directs water flow in multiple angles, reducing impact on fish and plants.
• Gaueko modua: Automatically switches to a lower flow rate when ambient light dims, promoting fish rest.
• Elikadura modua: Temporarily pauses the pump for 10 minutes during feeding.
• Haririk gabeko konexioa: Allows multiple pumps to operate alternately under a single master controller.
• Memoria Funtzioa: Retains settings after power loss.
• Low Water Level Protection: Automatically stops operation if water level is too low.
• Oinarri magnetiko sendoa: Secure and easy installation/removal, with silicone sleeve for noise reduction and tank protection.

5. Instalazioa eta konfigurazioa

5.1 Osagaiak konektatzea

1. Connect the wave maker pump unit cable to the controller.
2. Konektatu korronte egokitzailea kontrolagailura.
3. Plug the power adapter into a suitable electrical outlet, ensuring a drip loop is formed.

5.2 Mounting the Wave Maker

• Place the wave maker pump unit inside the aquarium, ensuring it is fully submerged.
• Attach the external magnetic holder to the outside of the aquarium glass, aligning it with the internal pump unit. The strong magnets will secure the pump in place.
• Ensure the silicone sleeve on the magnetic holder is properly positioned to prevent scratching the tank wall and reduce noise.
• Position the pump to direct water flow as desired. The outlet can be rotated to adjust direction.

5.3 Initial Power-On and Low Water Protection

Once connected and mounted, the unit will power on. The controller will display current settings. The wave maker is equipped with low water level protection. If the water level in the aquarium is too low, the pump will automatically stop operating to prevent damage. Ensure the pump is always fully submerged during operation.

6. Funtzionamendua

6.1 Kontrolatzailearen funtzioak

The external controller allows for easy adjustment of all settings:

• Pizteko botoia: Turns the wave maker ON/OFF.
• Modu botoiak: Select from the 6 wave modes (Pulse, Constant, Tide, Random, Quick, FWD/REV).
• Night Mode Button: Activates or deactivates the automatic low flow night mode.
• Feed Rate Button: Initiates a 10-minute pause for feeding.
• Lock/Link Button: Locks current settings or initiates wireless linking for multiple pumps.
• Egokitzeko botoia: Used to adjust flow rate (Flow 1-10) and wave length.
• Night Sensor: Detects ambient light levels for automatic night mode activation.

6.2 Wave Maker Modes

The wave maker offers six distinct modes to simulate various natural water movements:

1. Modu konstantea: Provides a continuous, fixed waveform output water flow.
   

   Image: Visual representation of Constant, Pulse, and Tide wave patterns.

2. Pultsu modua: The motor quickly pushes out a wave at maximum power, then drops to minimum power, repeating the cycle.
3. Marea modua: The motor slowly increases to maximum speed and then slowly decreases, mimicking the rise and fall of tides.
4. Ausazko modua: The flow rate has no standard rhythm, operating randomly to create turbulent water movement.

5. Modu azkarra: The motor runs fast, providing a constant and strong flow of water.
6. FWD/REV Mode: The waveform operates alternately in forward and reverse directions.

6.3 Gaueko modua

The external controller includes a light sensor. When the room light dims, the sensor activates, and the wave pump defaults to the lowest flow rate (1st speed) of the current mode. When the light brightens, it automatically returns to the previously set normal mode. This mode can be toggled ON/OFF using the Night Mode button.

6.4 Feeding Mode

During daily feeding, press the Feed Rate button on the controller. The wave pump will temporarily stop running for ten minutes, allowing fish to feed without strong water circulation. After ten minutes, the pump will automatically resume its previous operation.

6.5 Wireless Connection Mode (for multiple pumps)

For aquariums requiring multiple wave makers, this feature allows wireless synchronization. One controller acts as the master, and others as slaves. Each pump head operates alternately, sharing the master controller's settings. Refer to the controller's specific instructions for pairing multiple units.
