3. Setup Instructions
Follow these steps to set up your ROJECO Automatic Cat Water Fountain:
- Initial Cleaning: Before first use, disassemble all components (stainless steel body, top tray, pump, filters). Wash the stainless steel parts thoroughly with soap and water. Rinse the pump and filters under running water.
- Prepare Filters: Soak the Activated Carbon Filter and Sponge Filter in clean water for 5-10 minutes. This helps remove any loose carbon dust and ensures proper water flow.
- Assemble Pump: Place the pre-filter sponge onto the water pump.
- Install Pump: Position the assembled pump inside the stainless steel base of the fountain. Ensure the power cord is routed through the designated groove to prevent pinching.
- Place Activated Carbon Filter: Insert the activated carbon filter into its designated slot on the underside of the top tray.
- Fill with Water: Fill the stainless steel reservoir with clean water up to the 'MAX' line indicated on the visualization window. Do not exceed the 'MAX' line to prevent overflow. Ensure the water level is above the 'MIN' line for proper pump operation.
- Place Top Tray: Carefully place the top stainless steel tray onto the base, ensuring it sits securely and the water pump outlet aligns with the fountain head.
- Connect Power: Connect the adapter to the fountain's power cord and plug it into a standard electrical outlet. The fountain will start operating, and the LED light will illuminate.

- Water Level Monitoring: The visualization window on the side of the fountain allows you to easily monitor the water level. Ensure the water level is always between the 'MAX' and 'MIN' marks. Refill as needed.
- LED Light Reminder: The built-in LED light on the pump helps pets find the fountain easily in the dark and adds a gentle glow without disturbing sleep.

6. Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your ROJECO Automatic Cat Water Fountain, please refer to the following common problems and solutions:
- No Water Flow:
- Check if the power adapter is securely plugged into both the fountain and the wall outlet.
- Ensure the water level is above the 'MIN' mark. Refill if necessary.
- Disassemble and clean the pump. Hair or debris may be blocking the impeller.
- Check if the filters are clogged. Replace them if they appear dirty or restrict water flow.
- Excessive Noise:
- Ensure the water level is sufficient. Low water levels can cause the pump to make noise.
- Clean the pump thoroughly. Debris in the pump can cause vibrations and noise.
- Ensure the fountain is placed on a flat, stable surface.
- Water Quality Issues (e.g., cloudy water, odor):
- Replace both the Activated Carbon Filter and Sponge Filter.
