Baster did not work for me. I needed remove the cover and elevate the syphon tube above the pump. Removed the filter and filled the tube with water and massaged the tube to release air bubbles from the pump. Filled the tube twice. When massaging, squeeze as much of the tube as you can to create enough suction to draught out air bubbles. I used at least six fingers.
