Operating Instructions
Dual Water Modes
The fountain offers two selectable modes to suit your pet's drinking habits:
- Motion-activated Mode: The fountain releases water for 20 seconds when a pet approaches within 5 feet (1.5 meters) and a 120-degree detection angle.
- Timed Mode: Water is released for 20 seconds every 15 minutes.
The motion-activated mode entices pets to drink as water runs when they approach.
Low Water Detection System
The pump intelligently detects low water levels to prevent dry running and potential damage. A red LED indicator light will alert you when the water tank needs refilling.
The low water detection system protects the pump and alerts the user to refill.
Quiet Operation
The fountain features a double noise reduction design, including a small ramp cushion for falling water and an inner wall design to slow water impulse, resulting in a quiet operation of approximately 30dB.
The fountain operates at a barely audible 30dB, quieter than a whisper.
Maintenance
Filtration System
The fountain utilizes a four-layer filtration system to ensure clean and healthy water for your pets. This system includes Ion Exchange Resin, Medical Stone, Activated Carbon, and Cotton to soften water, absorb impurities, purify odors, and filter hair.

It is recommended to change the filter every 2-4 weeks. The replacement frequency may vary based on local water quality and how often you clean the fountain.
Pump Cleaning
Regular cleaning of the pump is crucial to prevent bacterial growth and hair clogging, which can impede the fountain's operation. Follow these steps to disassemble and clean the pump:
- Take out the pump sponge.
- Disassemble the pump casing by holding each side of the pump.
- Take out the impeller cover by the pump case.
- Take out the impeller using the cleaning brush hook.
- Clean all individual parts thoroughly.
- Reassemble the pump.

Troubleshooting
- Fountain not dispensing water: Check the water level; the low water detection system may have stopped the pump. Ensure the pump is clean and free of hair or debris. Verify the battery is charged and properly installed.
- Unusual noise during operation: This could indicate debris in the pump or low water levels. Clean the pump and ensure the water tank is adequately filled.
- Motion sensor not activating: Ensure the sensor is clean and unobstructed. Check that the fountain is powered on and in motion-activated mode.
- Water quality issues: Replace the filter as recommended (every 2-4 weeks) and clean the fountain regularly.

- Monitor Water Level: Always ensure the water level is above the minimum mark to prevent the pump from running dry and to ensure continuous hydration for your pet. The red LED indicator will remind you to refill.
