3. Operating Instructions
The Faroro WF01 offers three distinct water dispensing modes to suit your pet's needs. Use the 'SET' button on the main engine to cycle through the modes.
- Induction Mode: Water is dispensed for 15 seconds when your pet is detected within a 2-meter range and a 120° angle. This mode conserves battery life and encourages drinking when needed.
- Timer Mode: Water is dispensed for 15 seconds every 15 minutes, providing regular access to fresh water.
- Continuous Mode: Water is dispensed continuously. This mode only operates when the fountain is plugged into a power source.
