• Check Anti-Siphon Valves: Ensure the anti-siphon components are functioning correctly. If water is continuously flowing when the pump is off, the anti-siphon valve may be faulty or improperly installed. Use the provided syringe to clear any potential blockages in the anti-siphon valve if water flow is restricted.
• Ġibjun tal-Ilma: Keep the water reservoir clean and free of algae or sediment that could clog the system. Refill as needed.
