The prior steps detail the process for “EZ Mode” connection. If that does not
work for your connection, we suggest trying it again, and if still no success,
attempting the following method for “AP Mode” connection.
Using AP Mode to add device
-
Follow the previous steps to select your product type (Other > Kogan Smart Pet Fountain).

Adjust your connection method by tapping on the mode type in the top-right corner of the screen. Select “AP Mode” for the set-up type.

Disconnect the power adapter, wait 10 seconds then reconnect it and tap “Next”.

Press and hold the mode button for 5 seconds until the Wi-Fi indicator begins flashing slowly. If the indicator is flashing rapidly, press and hold the mode button again for 5 seconds until the Wi-Fi indicator begin flashing slowly and tap “Next”.
-
Tap “Confirm the indicator is slowly blinking” and click “Next”. Notes:
• The device and the app have to use the same Wi-Fi network.
• The device is only compatible with 2.4Ghz networks. -
Follow the in-app prompts to continue AP Mode connection, which will pair your mobile phone to the device’s Wi-Fi hotspot to ensure a connection. This may be named “SL-KoganSmart”, “SmartLife-XXXX”, or another similar name.
Note: If the Wi-Fi hotspot does not appear on your phone in the list of available networks, your device may not be set in AP Pairing Mode correctly. Try repeating the steps outlined above to ensure your device is ready for connection. -
The device will commence the pairing process and connect to the app. Ensure your Wi-Fi router, mobile phone, and the SmarterHome™ device are kept close until connection is complete.

OPERATION
Switching Modes
This product features two different modes: normal and geyser. To switch
between the two modes, press the Mode button. Alternatively, you can swap
modes using the app.
- Normal Mode: In this mode, water will flow continuously without any interruptions.
- Geyser Mode: When this mode is activated, water will flow for 5 minutes, then pause for 5 minutes before resuming. It’s important to note that during the pause, water will collect in the lid, allowing your pet to continue drinking.
Settings
- Tap the settings icon in the top right corner of the app to access the device settings.
- Tap the “Indicator” toggle to turn the device’s indicator ON/OFF.
- Tap “Working period” to schedule the desired running time of the water fountain and click “OK” to save it.
CLEANING & CARE
- Clean the fountain at least once a week to prevent the build-up of dirt, debris, and bacteria.
- Before cleaning, always unplug the fountain from the power source. Disassemble the fountain components, including the pump, filters, and water tank.
- Rinse all removable parts with warm water to remove any loose debris. Use a mild detergent and a soft brush to scrub away stubborn stains or residue. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the fountain.
- Clean the pump thoroughly as it plays a vital role in maintaining water circulation. Remove any hair, debris, or clogs from the pump to ensure its optimal performance.
- Regularly empty the water reservoir and refill it with fresh water. Stagnant water can promote bacterial growth and affect the water quality.
- Do not overfill the tank beyond the maximum water level indicator. Overfilling can lead to spillage and potential damage to the fountain.
- Perform a deep cleaning of the entire fountain, including all nooks and crannies, every month. This thorough cleaning helps eliminate any hidden debris or bacteria.
- Ensure that your pet’s mouth is clean and free from any debris or foreign objects before they use the fountain.
Filter replacement
It is recommended to replace both the water filter and foam filter every 30
days.
Note: Soak the water filter in clean water for 5 minutes before
installing it into the filter tray.
