Setup Instructions
- Unpack Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging.
- Rinse Components: Wash the water bowl, filter tray, and fountain base with water. Do not use soap on the filter.
- Install Pump: Place the submersible pump into the designated area at the bottom of the fountain base. Ensure the power cord is routed through the provided channel.
- Install Filter: If not already installed, place the filter into the filter tray. Ensure the filter is properly seated.
- Assemble Fountain: Place the filter tray with the filter onto the fountain base, ensuring it aligns correctly. Then, place the water bowl/tray on top.

Operating Instructions
- Initial Use: After setup, the fountain will start circulating water once plugged in.
