2.5 cm at least from the front

panel (fig. A), in order to ensure a perfect opening of the front door.

If both LEDS are on at the same time, the feeder has not yet been programmed. +2 h Regulation of the period of time between the programming time and the time of the first, second or third feeding session to be set:after pressing this button several times (on the basis of the desired interval), press P1, P2 or P3 within 3 seconds (the yellow LED will flash quickly during this period). Once programming has been completed, the yellow LED will flash for as many times as the +2h button was pressed, allowing you to ensure that you programmed it correctly. I.e.: it’s 8 a.m. and you want to set 2 daily feeding sessions, one at midday and one at 6 p.m.: - press the +2h button twice; - Press the P1 button within 3 seconds (the yellow LED will flash twice, indicating a 4 hour time interval from the current time); - Press the +2h button 5 times; - Press the P2 button within 3 seconds (the yellow LED will flash 5 times, indicating a 10 hour time interval from the current time). P1 + P3 Putting the feeder in STAND-BY (the food will only be supplied by pressing the MANUAL button); to reactivate the previous programme, press these two buttons again at the same time. During the stand-by phase, the yellow LED will intermittently flash slowly. This function allows you to use the feeder as a normal dispenser as and when required; when you are going to be away, just press P1 and P3 to restore automatic operation. MANUAL Manual feeding, independent from programmed settings and stand-by. P1 + P2 RESET of the current programmed settings. BATTERY When the red LED starts to intermittently flash slowly, the batteries are running low and are only guaranteed to last for another twenty days. Warning! If the RED LED intermittently flashes quickly, the feeder is malfunctioning!

• Make sure that the feeder is in the rest position (food outlet hole closed by the relative hatch integrated in the

PTauger and by the front door);

• open the slide located in the upper part of the container, letting it run towards the outside (fig. C);

• fill the container with food (flakes or granules), trying not to pack in too much; Warning! If you turn the auger with the slide open, the feeder will jam. Remove and replace the slide correctly, starting it up again.

REGULATING THE AMOUNT OF

There are 4 different hatches that can be applied to the container outlet, on the basis of the type of food being used:

• 2 hatches suitable for granular food (fig. D) we suggest using granules not bigger than 1 mm.

• 2 hatches to partially close the outlet hole (1/3 and 2/3). Particularly suitable for flaked food (fig. E). After having chosen the hatch and loaded the food, we recommend testing it to make sure that it works properly (MANUAL button), allowing you to assess whether the selected quantity of food is correct (the amount of food that should be eaten by the fish in 3 minutes). Warning! To ensure the right working of the product all the hatches must be correctly inserted in their compart- ment, till you hear a click. MAINTENANCE:

CLEANING THE CONTAINER

In order to allow for thorough cleaning, the food container can be easily extracted from the motor body:

• take it to the cleaning area;

• press the two side buttons in correspondence to the control panel at the same time and slide out the whole container (fig. F);

• take off the front hatch of the container by pulling it up (fig. G);

• slide off the container cover by pressing the two side buttons;

• clean the container carefully (do not use detergents or chemical substances!);

• put the container back together, assembling it in the following order: container body › auger › container cover › slide › front hatch, making sure that the auger is positioned enabling the closing of the container outlet hole;

• restore the entire container to the motor body. BATTERY REPLACEMENT We recommend always replacing the batteries:

• before a long period of absence;

• when the relative red LED intermittently flashes slowly;

• after the device has been out of use for a long period of time. Replace the batteries as follows:

• open the relative hatch (fig. H);

• remove the flat batteries and insert the new ones,

• make sure that you respect the polarities (see the raised indications on the plastic);

• close the hatch. Warning! Failing to respect the polarity could definitively prejudice the working order of the electronic board!
