Operating Instructions (Filter Installation)

Follow these steps to install the prepared filter into your PETLIBRO Dockstream Cat Water Fountain:

1. Disassemble the Fountain: Carefully remove the top tray and pump assembly from your PETLIBRO water fountain.
2. Remove Old Filter: Locate the filter compartment, typically under the top tray or within the pump housing. Remove the used filter and pre-filter sponge.
3. Insert New Pre-filter Sponge: Place a new pre-filter sponge into its designated slot.
4. Insert New Filter: Place the prepared multi-layer filter into the filter compartment, ensuring it sits securely.
5. Reassemble: Reassemble the fountain components, ensuring all parts are correctly aligned and secured.
6. Refill Water: Fill the fountain with fresh, clean water.

Maintenance and Care

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

• Filter Replacement: It is recommended to replace the multi-layer filter and pre-filter sponge every 2 weeks for optimal filtration and water quality. If you have multiple pets, more frequent replacement may be necessary.
• Fountain Cleaning: Thoroughly clean the water tank, tray, and pump at least once a week. This prevents mineral buildup and maintains pump efficiency.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with water quality or fountain performance, consider the following:

• Reduced Water Flow: Check if the filter is clogged. Replace it if necessary. Ensure the pump is clean and free of debris.
• Unpleasant Odor/Taste: This indicates the filter needs immediate replacement. Also, thoroughly clean the entire fountain.
• Water Discoloration: Replace the filter and clean the fountain. This can be a sign of algae or mineral buildup.

Always ensure you are using official PETLIBRO filters to guarantee compatibility and performance.
