FOUNTAIN REASSEMBLY

6) Place the fountain in desired location. Make sure to use a

protective surface, such as a towel or place mat, to protect your

floors from splashing or dripping from your pet.

7) Replace the filter and fill the housing and bowl with water.

Replace the lid.

8) Before you plug the fountain in, make sure your hands and the

cord are dry. Check the cord for any damage before plugging in

the fountain. Plug the fountain into an electrical outlet.

THE FOUNTAIN AND YOUR ENVIRONMENT

If you live in a humid environment and have problems with mold or

algae, soak all the parts in a diluted bleach solution for about 10

minutes after regular cleaning. Use a 10% bleach and 90% water

solution. Pour some of the bleach solution down into the motor cavity

too. This is an excellent way to disinfect the fountain. However, you

must be sure to rinse all the parts thoroughly in only water to remove

all the chlorine.

If you have hard water, you may start to see white mineral deposits

on or inside the motor. This can eventually prevent the impeller from

turning properly. To avoid having to replace the motor, please take

the following steps:

1) Clean the motor more frequently than you have in the past;

or

2) Clean the motor with a vinegar solution (20% White Vinegar

and 80% Water) and let the solution soak for several

minutes down inside the motor cavity; or

3) Use bottled water instead of faucet water.
