9. Attach the three Cord Clips around the base of the Pet
Fountain to hide the electrical Power Cord and secure the
Cone piece into place (
fig. 25).
10. Fill the Pet Fountain Bowl with water. Make sure the water
level is at least to the minimum MIN (minimum) fill line so the
Pump does not run dry. This will prime the Pump for use. Do
not fill the Pet Fountain past the MAX (maximum) fill line.
11. Place Pet Fountain in desired location. Do not pick up a full
Pet Fountain by the Cone piece. To properly pick up the Pet Fountain, use both hands
and grip the sidewalls of the Bowl and lift.
Important: To protect your floor always
use a protective mat, such as a towel or water-resistant placemat. This will help
protect your floor from splashing or spills caused by your pet.
12. Make sure the electrical Power Cord, the Adaptor and your hands are completely
dry before you plug the Pet Fountain into an electrical outlet. Connect the Inline Plug
and make sure no silver is showing, then plug the Adaptor into an electrical outlet.
the pet fountain and your Environment
If you live in a humid environment and have problems with mold or algae, soak all Pet
Fountain parts in a diluted vinegar solution (20% white vinegar and 80% water) for 10
minutes after regular cleaning. Also, pour the diluted vinegar solution into the Pump’s
motor cavity.
If you have hard water, small white mineral deposits may form on or inside the Pump.
This can eventually prevent the Impeller from turning properly. To avoid replacement or
damage to the Pump, please take the following precautions:
• Clean the Pump more frequently.
• Clean the Pump with a diluted vinegar solution weekly.
• Use bottled water instead of tap water.
General tips
• When being introduced to the Pet Fountain, your pet may be cautious of this new
and unusual object. After beginning operation of your Pet Fountain, simply allow your
pet to adjust at his or her own pace. Some pets may take several days or longer to
begin use, while others will start right away.
• Your pet may prefer that the Pet Fountain be placed away from their normal feeding
area. Try placing it in another location, such as a different area of the kitchen or in a
bathroom or utility room.
• Add ice cubes to the bowl for refreshing, ice-cold running water!
