6. Operating Instructions

- Water Level Monitoring: Regularly check the water level using the transparent tank and the MIN/MAX indicators. Ensure the water level remains above the MIN line to prevent potential issues.
- Power Button: The base unit may include a power button to manually turn the fountain on or off. Refer to the base for specific button location and function.
7. Maintenance
- Regular Cleaning: Most parts of the fountain are dishwasher-safe for convenient cleaning. For manual cleaning, disassemble the fountain and wash all removable parts with mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly.
- Filter Replacement: The 3-layer filter should be replaced every 2-4 weeks, or more frequently if you have multiple pets or notice reduced water quality.
- Impeller Check: If you notice unusual noise or reduced water flow, unplug the fountain and check the impeller (located in the base unit) for any blockages or debris. Clean the impeller and its surroundings to ensure it can rotate freely.

8. Troubleshooting
Noise is quite loud:
- Check if the remaining water level in the tank is too low. Refill the tank with drinking water, ensuring the water level is above the MIN (minimum) water level line and does not exceed the MAX (maximum) water level line.
- Unplug the fountain, then check the impeller and its surroundings for any blockages. Make sure the impeller is clean and can rotate freely.
Water not flowing:
- Ensure the power cable is securely connected to both the fountain base and a working power outlet.
- Verify the water level is sufficient (above MIN).
- Check for any obstructions in the water spout or filter area.
