3. Setup and Installation

Proper installation of the filters and sponges is essential for effective water purification. Follow these steps to replace your old filters with new ones.

3.1. Preparing New Filters

1. Unpack the new multi-stage filter and pre-filter sponge from their individual packaging.
2. Rinse both the filter and sponge thoroughly under running water for several minutes. This helps remove any loose carbon dust and prepares them for use.

3.2. Replacing Filters in the Fountain

1. Unplug the pet fountain from the power outlet.
2. Disassemble the fountain by removing the top tray and pump cover.
3. Remove the old multi-stage filter and pre-filter sponge. Dispose of them responsibly.
4. Clean the fountain components (reservoir, pump, tray) thoroughly with water and a mild, pet-safe detergent. Rinse all parts completely to remove any soap residue.
5. Insert the new pre-filter sponge into the designated slot around the pump.
6. Place the new multi-stage filter into the filter tray, ensuring it sits securely.
7. Reassemble the fountain components, ensuring all parts are correctly aligned and securely in place.
8. Fill the fountain reservoir with fresh water to the recommended level (MAX line).
9. Plug the fountain back into the power outlet.

4. Operating Instructions

Once the new filters and sponges are installed and the fountain is filled with water, it will begin operating automatically when plugged in. The filtration system continuously works to provide circulating, purified water for your pets.

• Ensure the water level is always above the MIN mark to prevent the pump from running dry, which can cause damage.
• Observe your pets' interaction with the fountain to ensure they are comfortable drinking from it.

5. Maintenance

Regular maintenance of your Veken pet fountain and its filters is crucial for maintaining water quality and the fountain's lifespan.

5.1. Filter and Sponge Replacement Frequency

• Replace the multi-stage filter every 2 to 4 weeks, depending on the number of pets using the fountain and the hardness of your tap water.
• Replace the pre-filter sponge every 2 to 4 weeks, or sooner if it appears visibly dirty or clogged.
• Always rinse new filters and sponges thoroughly before installation.

5.2. Fountain Cleaning

• Clean the entire fountain, including the reservoir, pump, and tray, at least once a week.
• Disassemble the pump and clean its internal components (impeller, housing) to prevent mineral buildup and ensure proper water flow.
• Use a soft brush or sponge and mild, pet-safe soap for cleaning. Rinse all parts thoroughly.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Veken pet fountain's filtration, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• Reduced Water Flow: This often indicates a clogged filter or pump. Replace the filter and sponge, and thoroughly clean the pump. Ensure the water level is adequate.
• Unpleasant Water Odor/Taste: This suggests the filters are no longer effectively removing impurities. Replace both the multi-stage filter and pre-filter sponge immediately. Clean the fountain thoroughly.
• Visible Debris in Water: The pre-filter sponge may be saturated or damaged. Replace the pre-filter sponge and ensure the multi-stage filter is correctly seated.
• Fountain Noise: Excessive noise can be caused by a low water level, a dirty pump, or improper assembly. Check water level, clean the pump, and ensure all fountain parts are correctly assembled.
