Follow these steps to properly set up your AQQA Aquarium Air Pump:

Umestitev: Position the air pump on a dry, stable surface. To prevent water backflow, it is recommended to place the air pump at least 25 cm (approximately 10 inches) higher than the water level of your aquarium.
Check Valve Installation (if pump is below water level): If you must place the air pump below the water level, it is crucial to install the included check valves. Cut the air tube and insert a check valve in the line between the pump and the air stone. Ensure the check valve is oriented correctly to allow air flow out of the pump and prevent water from flowing back in.
Connect Air Tubes: Connect one end of each air tube to the air outlets on the pump.
Attach Air Stones: Connect the other end of each air tube to an air stone. Place the air stones at the desired location within your aquarium.
Napajalni priključek: Priključite napajalni kabel v ustrezno električno vtičnico.
