MaintenanceWarning: Do not let pump run dry. When pump makes air suction noise and water gurgling sound, water level is extremely low. Add water immediately.
- Note: Pump may take two to three minutes before it begins circulating water. This allows time for air to be removed from pump. The pump is silent. You will not hear anything except the flowing of water down the slope.
- Mineral build-up from tap water, or water from other sources, can ruin the pump. If hard water is a problem bottled water is recommended. The pump may need occasional cleaning to remove build-up, especially when using hard water. If debris is caught in the intake vents of the pump, disconnect the pump from any power sources and rinse the pump under clean running water. Check strainer and intake vents once a week for pet hair and debris. Remove as needed.
- Always unplug unit before performing any type of maintenance.
- Filter maintenance. Check charcoal filter after 30 days. Replace filter every 60 to 90 days for usage by one animal. Multiple animal homes will require more frequent replacement.
- Cleaning. Bowl, reservoirs and all plastic parts may be cleaned with mild dish soap. Do not place unit in dishwasher.
- Adding water. Add water to storage reservoir when it appears low. You must remove the reservoir to add water to it. Water may also be added to bowl by pouring slowly from a cup directly into the bowl.
The Submersible Pump is tested and certified to ensure safety and operating performance. Failure to follow instructions and warnings in the manual may result in pump damage and/or serious injury. Only the pump and electrical cord directly connecting the two are to come in contact with water. Under no circumstances should the plug-in transformer or other parts come into contact with water. Do not plug-in or otherwise use this product if any part of it appears to be damaged or operating abnormally. Make a drip loop on the electrical cord connecting the pump to the transformer plug by letting a portion of the cord hang lower than either the pump or the transformer. Do not let the pump run when not submerged in water. Doing so may damage the pump. Always submerge the pump first, and then plug in. Keep the unit unplugged when not under direct observation. Use this product indoors only.
Introducing Your Pet to the Pet Fountain
Each animal's response to the Pet Fountain will be different depending on age, temperament, and breed. Some will be nervous because of the flowing water and the low hum of the pump. The manufacturer recommends placing the unit unplugged next to the pet's normal water bowl with water in it for at least a week. Then plug in the Pet Fountain. If the pet hesitates to approach the unit, place bits of food or their favorite treats on the rim. This will encourage your pet to approach and drink. As they become used to the Pet Fountain, remove the normal water bowl, leaving only the Pet Fountain to drink from.
