FX5 problems?

[selki]

Anyone got problems with their FX5? Mine seem to die out..then I unplug then replug and then it starts up again flowing water...then it dies out..then i try the same thing and it starts up again... anyone got similar problems? Or is this normal for FX5's?

Its normal. Every 24 hours it shuts off for a couple minutes to purge air. When you plug it in, it runs for a couple then shuts off to purge for a couple before restarting.

Yer , it will turn its self off for about 2mins within the first 2mins of you plugging it in to let all trapped air/ gasses out and then every 24 Hours it will do he same too , Which is completely normal .

Manual might help. It talks about the pump pausing.
