2. 안전 정보
Always observe basic safety precautions to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to persons. This includes:
- Ensure the aquarium is placed on a sturdy, level surface capable of supporting its full weight when filled with water.
- 전원 코드나 플러그가 손상되었거나, 오작동하거나, 떨어뜨리거나 어떤 식으로든 손상된 제품은 절대 작동하지 마십시오.
- To avoid the possibility of the appliance plug or receptacle getting wet, position the aquarium to one side of a wall-mounted receptacle to prevent water from dripping onto the receptacle or plug.
- A 'drip loop' should be arranged 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.
- Never pull the cord to unplug from the outlet. Grasp the plug and pull to disconnect.
- 사용하지 않을 때, 부품을 장착하거나 제거하기 전, 청소하기 전에는 항상 콘센트에서 제품의 플러그를 뽑아두십시오.
- 이 제품은 가정용으로만 사용하도록 설계되었습니다.

4. 설정
Follow these steps for the initial setup of your Fluval Flex aquarium:
- 놓기: Choose a suitable location for your aquarium. Ensure the surface is strong enough to support the weight of the filled aquarium (approximately 90 lbs for 9 gallons of water plus substrate and decorations). The location should be away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and drafts.
- 헹굼: Rinse the aquarium glass, filter media, and any decorations thoroughly with clean water. Do not use soap or detergents.
- 필터 미디어 설치: Install the provided filter media into the rear filter compartment. The typical order is: Foam (mechanical) first, followed by Activated Carbon (chemical), and then BIOMAX (biological). Refer to the diagram below for correct placement.
- 펌프 설치: Place the circulation pump into its designated section within the rear filter compartment. Ensure the multi-directional dual outputs are correctly attached and positioned.
- Substrate and Decorations: Add your chosen substrate (gravel, sand) and decorations.
- Filling the Aquarium: Carefully fill the aquarium with dechlorinated water. Leave a small gap from the top edge to prevent overflow.
- 전원 연결: Connect the power adapter to the LED lighting system and the circulation pump. Ensure a drip loop is formed for all electrical cords. Plug the power adapter into a suitable electrical outlet.
- 초기 작업: The pump and lights should now be operational. Allow the filtration system to run for at least 24-48 hours before introducing any aquatic life to allow the water to stabilize.

6. 유지관리
Regular maintenance is crucial for a healthy aquatic environment.
- 물 교체: Perform partial water changes (25-30%) weekly or bi-weekly, depending on your aquarium's inhabitants and bioload. Always use dechlorinated water.
- 필터 미디어 청소/교체:
- Foam Filter Block: Rinse the foam block in old aquarium water during water changes to remove trapped debris. Replace every 2-4 weeks or when visibly degraded.
- Activated Carbon Insert: Replace activated carbon every 2-4 weeks. Carbon absorbs impurities and medications but becomes saturated over time.
- BIOMAX Insert: Rinse BIOMAX media gently in old aquarium water only when necessary to remove excessive sludge. Do not replace biological media unless it is severely degraded, as it houses beneficial bacteria.
- Aquarium Cleaning: Clean the interior glass surfaces regularly to remove algae buildup. The easy feed top cover opening facilitates access for feeding and minor cleaning tasks.
- 펌프 유지보수: Periodically check the circulation pump for blockages and clean the impeller if necessary to ensure optimal water flow.
7. 문제 해결
This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your Fluval Flex aquarium.
- No Power to Lights or Pump:
- Check if the power adapter is securely plugged into both the aquarium and the wall outlet.
- 벽면 콘센트에 다른 가전제품을 꽂아 정상적으로 작동하는지 확인하십시오.
- Ensure the FLEXPad remote has working batteries and is pointed at the infrared remote sensor on the canopy.
- 흐린 물:
- 뉴 탱크 증후군: Common in new setups. Allow the biological filter to establish (cycling process). Avoid overfeeding.
- 과다 공급: 음식의 양을 줄이세요.
- 여과 부족: Check if filter media is clogged and clean/replace as needed. Ensure the pump is operating correctly.
- Reduced Water Flow from Pump:
- Check for blockages in the pump intake or impeller. Disassemble and clean the pump.
- Ensure filter media is not excessively clogged.
- 리모콘이 응답하지 않음:
