Setup Instructions

Follow these steps to set up your cat water fountain:

1. Unpack Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging. Ensure all components, including the fountain base, water basin, pump, filter tray, filter, and sponge, are present.
2. Prepare the Filter:
   • Soak the new filter in clean water for 3-5 minutes. This helps remove any loose carbon dust and ensures proper water flow.
   • Rinse the filter thoroughly under running water for 30 seconds.
3. Assemble the Pump: Attach the sponge to the pump intake. Ensure it is securely fitted.
4. Place the Pump: Position the assembled pump at the bottom of the water basin in the designated area.
5. Install the Filter: Place the prepared filter into the filter tray, then position the filter tray over the pump. Ensure it sits correctly.
6. Fill with Water: Fill the water basin with clean water up to the maximum fill line. Do not overfill.
7. Connect Power: Connect the power adapter to the fountain and then plug it into a suitable electrical outlet. The fountain should begin operating.

Operating Instructions

Once set up, the AOOGITF S5-6+6 Cat Water Fountain operates continuously to provide fresh water.

• Continuous Operation: The fountain will run as long as it is plugged in and has sufficient water.
• Water Level Monitoring: Regularly check the water level. Ensure the water level is always above the pump to prevent it from running dry, which can damage the pump. Refill as needed.
• Power On/Off: To turn the fountain off, simply unplug it from the power outlet. To turn it back on, plug it in again.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance is crucial for the longevity of your fountain and the health of your pet.

Filter Replacement

The filter is designed to clean a significant volume of water, typically over 50 liters, but replacement frequency depends on usage and water quality. It is recommended to replace the filter every 2-4 weeks, or more frequently if you have multiple pets or notice reduced water flow or impurities.

1. Unplug the fountain.
2. Remove the top tray and the old filter.
3. Prepare a new filter by soaking and rinsing it as described in the "Setup Instructions".
4. Place the new filter into the filter tray and reassemble the fountain.

Cleaning the Fountain

Clean the entire fountain, including the pump, at least once a week. This prevents mineral buildup and bacterial growth.

• Unplug the fountain and disassemble all components.
• Wash the basin, trays, and other plastic parts with mild soap and water. The components are designed for easy hand cleaning and some parts may be dishwasher safe (refer to product specifications for details).
• Clean the pump:
  • Remove the pump cover and impeller.
  • Use a small brush (e.g., a toothbrush) to clean any debris or mineral buildup from the impeller and inside the pump housing.
• Rinse all components thoroughly to remove any soap residue.
• Reassemble the fountain.

Filter System Details

The AOOGITF S5-6+6 water fountain utilizes a multi-stage filtration system to ensure water purity:

• Sponge Filter: Captures hair and debris, protecting the pump.
• Non-woven Fabric Layer: Provides initial filtration of larger particles.
• Activated Carbon: Made from coconut shells, it absorbs odors, chlorine, and other organic impurities.
• Ion Exchange Resin: Softens water by reducing heavy metal ions like magnesium (Mg) and calcium (Ca).
• Food-grade Plastic: All components are made from safe, food-grade materials.
