I have the same filter:

Fill the filter itself with water to about 1 inch from the top, make sure inlet is underwater and the hose is full of water (after the first time, the hose should always be full of water). Attach everything together and set-up for running (with that annoying little air inlet in the lid closed - if it hasn't caused you problems yet, it will!) Open both connectors which are attached to the hose so that the remainder of the filter is filled with water. Once you see that it is full and can't hear water trickling, switch the power on. The "priming" is actually much better then on most other cheap externals I have come across.
