8.1.1. Cleaning the filter media (filter backwash).
1. Change the 4 or 6 ways multifunctional valve lever to the BACKWASH position.
2. Start the pump and make a backwash of about 2÷3 minutes.
3. Right after this stop the pump and change the multifunctional valve lever position on RINSE.
4. Re-start the pump and rinse for about 30 seconds.
5. Stop the pump once again and change the multifunctional valve lever position on FILTER.
6. Start again the pump.
8.1.2. Bottom cleaning.
To wash the bottom the multifunctional valve on the filter must be on FILTER position. The tool for the bottom cleaning must be connected to the skimmer with a
flexible tube. The pump must be switched off.
Completely refill with water the tube that is connected to the tool for the bottom cleaning so that the pump cannot aspire air. No air must enter the filter. If
there is air switch off the pump and empty the air from the suction tool.
Slowly move the tool and clean in this way all the bottom. The filter systems with no pre-filter work with a basket skimmer!
You can proceed with the bottom cleaning using the proper tools even on WASTE position (only on the 6 ways multifunctional valve version) to take off all
impurities (for example seaweeds) that otherwise could pass again through the filter's sand.
8.2. Extraordinary maintenance.
This consists in replacing worn or damaged parts (multifunctional valve, drain tap, tank, etc.).
