Why Priming is Important

Priming the Automatic Dosing System ensures the treatment flows through the tubing properly and prepares the system for accurate dosing. It is necessary:

When first setting up the system.
When replacing or installing a new water treatment bottle.

Steps to Manually Prime the Automatic Dosing System

Step 1: Enter Priming Mode

Press and hold the x2 button for 3 seconds until the blue light above the button begins to flash.
The flashing blue light indicates that the system is now in priming mode.

Step 2: Allow the System to Prime

Once in priming mode, the pump will automatically push the treatment through the tubing.
Observe the tubing for the flow of the treatment.

Step 3: Exit Priming Mode

Automatic Exit: The system will turn off priming mode after approximately 3 minutes, returning to normal operation.
Manual Exit: You can manually stop priming at any time by pressing the x2 button once the treatment begins to discharge at the tubing's outlet.

Tips for Effective Priming

Ensure all connections between the bottle and tubing are secure before starting.
Monitor the discharge point to confirm the treatment is flowing correctly.
Properly primed systems dispense water treatment accurately, maintaining a healthy and balanced aquatic environment.
