Putting into operation
There are 3 ways to prime the filter. 1) With the starter bulb (order
no. 4003540), 2) with the Universal Installation Kit 1 (see G
no. 4004300) or 3) by sucking the hose on the pressure side.
Connect the pressure side hose to the outlet elbow and the spray
bar while the filter fills with water. The pump can be switched on
when water has filled the filter, and for a short time while trapped
air is exhausted from the filter media a slight noise from the pump
will be heard (this is normal). Fit the plug into the end of the spray
bar after all the air bubbles have disappeared.
