As with any electrical device, check the electrical
cord for any tears or damage before use.
Inspect the bottom of the fountain to be sure the
motor is securely attached. (Fig. 1)
Remove the housing lid and insert the charcoal
filter. The filter will fit diagonally into the two
triangular slots located inside the housing. The
filter fits narrow side down, with the black side
facing the front of the fountain (toward the spout).
The filter will slide easily into place, but make sure
it is pushed all the way down. (See Fig. 2a & 2b)

NOTE: Rinse the filter thoroughly under cool water before placing
in the fountain. 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.
Place fountain in desired location. If placing on carpet, tile or
wood flooring use a protective mat or other durable, water
resistant surface to protect your floors from splashing or
dripping caused by the pet.
Fill the unit with water. This includes both the bowl and the
filter housing. This will prime the pump. Replace the lid.
Before you plug the fountain in, make sure the cord and your
hands are dry. Plug the fountain into an electrical outlet.
