Hi all - Just got a canister and read through all the instructions on how to do maintenance. (Eg. close aqua stop valve, unplug, then lift locking lever), but what about just a partial water change that doesn't involve maintenance.
Do you just unplug it or do you have to close the aqua stop valve? I just did a PWC by unplug the unit and it was not happy when I plugged it in again it starting buzzing and didn't flow. So I pumped the primer, and that seemed to work, but I don't want to do that again.
I must have done something wrong and I don't want to wreck my unit.
Much appreciated!
