OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

DO NOT RUN DRY

INDOOR HOUSEHOLD USE OR SEASONAL OUTDOOR USE

Fountain will come fully assembled and ready for use. Rinse fountain and reservoirs before using.

1)2)As with any electrical device, check the electrical cord for any tears, or damage before use.

Make sure the low-voltage power adaptor is tightly connected to the pump’s electrical cord and that the threaded locking collar is tightened completely, see Figures 1a & 1b.

Fig. 1a Fig. 1b

Your fountain comes equipped with two different filters, a charcoal

3) filter that removes bad tastes and odors and a foam filter to trap larger debris before it reaches the pump.

Installing the Charcoal Filter:

Fig. 2

Open the housing lid to place the charcoal filter (one filter is included with your fountain). The Charcoal Filter fits between the grooves in the housing with the black side facing out towards the bowl, as shown in Figure 2. Make sure the filter is pushed all the way down and close the lid.

IMPORTANT: Rinse charcoal filter thoroughly under cool water before placing in the housing. This will remove any loose charcoal dust, which is harmless. A small amount of charcoal dust may shed

for the life of the filter. This is normal and not harmful to your pet.

Fig. 3

Installing the Foam Filter:

The foam filter will come installed around the pump beneath the housing, as shown in Figure 3. You will be able to see the foam filter in place by looking through the pre-filter on the right side.
