Operating Instructions
The PETLIBRO Dockstream fountain offers two distinct water modes:
- Radar Induction Mode: This mode utilizes an advanced radar sensor to detect your pet within a 19.7-inch (50cm) range. Upon detection, the fountain delivers a 42-second flow of water. This conserves battery power while encouraging pets to drink.
- Continuous Flow Mode: When the fountain is plugged into a power source, it can operate in a continuous flow mode, providing a non-stop stream of water. This mode is ideal for households with multiple pets or for ensuring constant water availability.
The fountain is equipped with indicators for low battery and low water levels, alerting you when attention is needed.
