Water Level Monitoring:
The fountain features a translucent water tank and a built-in LED light, allowing you to easily monitor the water level without disassembling the unit. Ensure the water level is always above the MIN mark to prevent pump damage and below the MAX mark to avoid spills.

Maintenance
Regular cleaning and filter replacement are crucial for maintaining water quality and extending the life of your fountain.
Daily/Weekly Maintenance:
- Refill Water: Check the water level daily and refill as needed. The 3.2L capacity can provide water for 7-10 days for a single pet.
- Clean Pump: Clean the water pump every 2-4 weeks. Disassemble the pump and clean all parts with water to remove any debris or mineral buildup. Refer to the pump's specific instructions for detailed cleaning.
Filter Replacement:
The fountain utilizes a triple filtration system:
- Foam Filter: Traps hair and debris.
- Activated Carbon Filter: Removes odors and impurities, softens water.
It is recommended to change the carbon filter every 2-4 weeks and the foam filter as needed, typically every 2-4 weeks, or more frequently if you have multiple pets or notice reduced water flow.
