Setup Instructions
- Unpack and Inspect: Carefully remove all components from the packaging and ensure they are free from damage.
- Clean Components: Wash the stainless steel bowl, water outlet tray, and water tank with mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly to remove any residue. Do not wash the base unit or the wireless pump.
- Install Filter: Place one F2V2 filter cartridge into its designated slot within the water outlet tray. Ensure it is seated correctly.
- Assemble Pump: Position the wireless pump securely into the designated area within the water tank.
- Fill Water Tank: Fill the water tank with clean, fresh water up to the 'MAX' line. The maximum capacity is 7 liters (1.8 gallons / 230 ounces).
- Assemble Top Section: Place the stainless steel bowl on top of the water tank, followed by the water outlet tray. Ensure all parts fit snugly.
- Power Connection: The fountain can operate on its internal 5200mAh Li-ion battery or be continuously powered via an electrical outlet. For initial use, it is recommended to fully charge the battery (approximately 8 hours with a 5V1A charger, or 4.5 hours with a 5V2A charger) or connect the unit to an electrical outlet for continuous operation.
Operating Instructions
The PET MARVEL F2 V2 offers three distinct operating modes to suit your pet's needs:
- Sensor Mode: In this mode, the fountain automatically dispenses water for 30 seconds when a pet is detected within a 120-degree sensing range and approximately 50cm distance. For larger animals or humans, detection can occur up to 3 meters. To maintain water freshness, the fountain also flushes for 1 minute every 2 hours. The built-in battery can last approximately 45 days in this mode (based on 50 detections per day).
- Time Mode: This mode dispenses water at timed intervals, providing consistent hydration. The built-in 5000mAh lithium battery offers an extended battery life of approximately 68 days in this mode.
- Continuous Mode: When plugged into an electrical outlet, the fountain provides a continuous flow of water, ensuring 24-hour uninterrupted access to fresh water for your pets.
Water Shortage Alert: The semi-transparent water tank allows for easy visual monitoring of the water level. Should the water level become too low, a red indicator light will activate as a warning, and the pump will automatically stop to prevent dry burning and damage to the unit.
Maintenance
Regular maintenance is crucial for the longevity and hygienic operation of your pet water fountain.
- Regular Cleaning: For optimal hygiene, disassemble and clean the water tank, stainless steel bowl, and water outlet tray regularly (e.g., weekly). Use mild soap and water, then rinse thoroughly. The wireless pump can also be disassembled and cleaned with the provided brush. Important: Do not wash or soak the base unit in water. If the unit is not plugged in, ensure the charging port plug is securely closed, as the base has an IPX4 waterproof rating, protecting against splashes but not submersion.
- Filter Replacement: The advanced triple filtration system includes a microporous filter cotton, ion exchange resin, and coconut shell activated carbon. To ensure continuous provision of pure water, replace the filter cartridge and pump sponge every 4 weeks. This is especially important for pets with more saliva or those prone to leaving food residue. Replacement filters are available under ASIN B0D9457K78.
Troubleshooting
- Q: What is the sensing range?
- A: At a room temperature of 27 degrees Celsius, small animals are 100% sensed within a 50cm cone-shaped area. Human detection is possible within 3 meters. Sensing effectiveness can be influenced by ambient temperature and individual differences due to infrared pyroelectricity.
- Q: How long can my pet drink from one full fill-up?
- A: A 30 lb dog can drink for approximately 10 days, and a cat for approximately 25 days, depending on consumption rates.
- Q: The product died soon after receiving it?
- A: Due to the characteristics of lithium batteries, the factory power is typically around 50% and can deplete over time. It is recommended to fully charge the product before its first use to ensure optimal performance.
- Q: Concern about charger cord overheating or fire hazard?
- A: To ensure safety, always use the original or a certified compatible charger (5V1A for slow charge, 5V2A for fast charge). Discontinue use immediately if any signs of overheating, melting, or damage are observed on the charger or cord, and contact customer support for assistance.
