Setup Instructions
- Unpack Components: Carefully remove all items from the packaging. Ensure you have the fountain unit, water pump, and natural river rocks.
- Choose a Location: Place the fountain on a flat, stable, and waterproof surface near a power outlet. Ensure there is enough space around the fountain to prevent water damage from splashes.
- Install Water Pump: Locate the water pump and connect its tubing to the fountain's internal water hose. Ensure the connection is secure to prevent leaks.
- Fill with Water: Fill the bottom basin of the fountain with distilled water until the pump is fully submerged. Do not overfill.
- Arrange Rocks: Place the natural river rocks into the bottom basin and on the tiers as desired. This enhances the aesthetic and helps reduce splashing.
- Connect Power: Plug the power cord into a standard 120V 60HZ electrical outlet. The fountain should begin to operate, and the LED lights will illuminate.

Operating Instructions
Once set up and plugged in, the fountain will immediately begin circulating water and illuminating its LED lights. There are no separate controls for the pump or lights; they operate simultaneously when the unit is powered.
- Water Level: Regularly check the water level. Due to evaporation, water levels will decrease over time. Refill with distilled water as needed to ensure the pump remains fully submerged. Running the pump dry can cause damage.
- Power On/Off: To turn the fountain off, simply unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet. Plug it back in to resume operation.

Maintenance
Regular maintenance will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your fountain.
- Clean Water: Change the water every 1-2 weeks, or more frequently if it appears cloudy or dirty. Use distilled water to minimize mineral buildup.
- Clean Fountain Unit: Periodically clean the fountain's surfaces with a soft cloth and mild soap. Rinse thoroughly to remove any soap residue. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Clean Water Pump: Disconnect the power before cleaning the pump. Remove the pump from the fountain and disassemble it according to its specific instructions (usually involves removing the cover and impeller). Clean any debris, mineral deposits, or algae from the pump and impeller using a small brush. Rinse well and reassemble.
- Prevent Algae: To prevent algae growth, you may add a small amount of algaecide specifically designed for fountains (follow product instructions).
- Winter Storage: If storing the fountain for an extended period, especially in cold conditions, drain all water, clean the unit and pump thoroughly, and allow them to dry completely before storing in a cool, dry place.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| No water flow or weak flow | Low water level; clogged pump or tubing; kinked tubing; pump not plugged in. | Add distilled water; clean pump and tubing; straighten tubing; ensure power cord is securely plugged in. |
