WARNING

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and/or injury to persons, including the following:

• Read all instructions before using this product.
• To reduce the risk of injury, close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
• To protect against electric shock, do not place an electrical power cord or plug in water or other liquids.
• Do not operate any appliance if it has a damaged electrical power cord or plug, or if it is malfunctioning or has been damaged. Call the Customer Care Center immediately for further instructions.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not place or store an appliance where it can fall or be pulled into a bathtub or sink.
• Always unplug any appliance when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning.
• Do not use an appliance for anything other than its intended use.
• If the plug of this device gets wet, turn off the electricity to that electrical outlet. Do not attempt to unplug.
• Examine this appliance after installation. Do not plug into an electrical outlet if there is water on the electrical power cord or plug.

CAUTION

• Do not allow pets to chew on or swallow any parts. If you are concerned your pet may chew the power cord, purchase a cord conduit (a hard plastic protector) at any hardware store.
• The plastic fountain parts are BPA-FREE. However, some animals have been known to be sensitive to plastic food and water containers. If your animal shows signs of an allergic reaction to the plastic, please discontinue use until you have consulted with your veterinarian.

NOTICE

• The fountain is intended to run continuously (always plugged into an electrical outlet), as long as the water level is maintained and the fountain is cleaned regularly. Be sure to check the water level regularly to help prevent damage to the pump, as your pet will drink the water, and some may evaporate.

• Do not attempt repairs on the pump.

• Do not pull on the electrical power cord to remove the plug from the electrical outlet.

• To unplug, grasp the plug, not the electrical power cord.

• To avoid the possibility of the plug or electrical outlet getting wet, the electrical outlet should always be above
  the level of the fountain.

• If an extension cord is necessary, an extension cord with a proper rating should be used.

• The electrical use of this appliance is 2.5 watts.

• The use of attachments not recommended or sold by the manufacturer may cause an unsafe condition. Do not modify the appliance.

• Do not install or store appliances where it will be exposed to weather or temperatures below 40° F.

• Read and observe all important notices listed on the appliance and in the packaging.

• Never wash the filter with soapy water as the soap residue will seep into the filter and cannot be removed. Only rinse the filter with water.

• Use only PetSafe ® Brand authorized replacement filters. If unauthorized filters are used, the warranty may be voided.

• Do not use outdoors. Do not run dry. For indoor household use only.

In the Box

Assemble Pet Fountain

Note: Rinse all fountain components (except for the adaptor) with warm water before using the pet fountain. This will remove any residue from the manufacturing process.

1. Take the pump apart by first removing the blue faceplate. Use your finger to pull up on the small tab.

2. Remove the teardrop-shaped stator by pulling up on the small lip.

3. Use a fingernail to pull out the impeller, which is held in place magnetically. Clean the pump parts with warm water and soap. Reassemble the pump by first inserting the impeller. Then, replace the stator and faceplate.

4. Place the pump into the foam filter with the cord running above it.

5. Place the pump and foam filter into the bottom of the bowl inside the square indentation as shown. Press down to engage the suction cups.
   Note: Wetting the suction cups will ease assembly.

6. Once the pump and foam filter are securely in place, feed the cord through the raised post and out the notch on the base of the bowl.

7. Remove the extra slack from the cord and push the rubber seal firmly into the raised post. (Refer to image #6)

8. Rinse the carbon filter thoroughly under cold water to remove any loose carbon dust. Open the filter housing and rinse both parts underwater. Insert the filter into the filter housing base with the larger side facing down. Attach the filter housing top and press down until it snaps in place.

9. Insert the filter housing into the hole on top of the pump.

10. Pour water into the bowl until it reaches the MAX (maximum) fill line.

11. Attach the upper tray to the bowl by aligning it over the filter housing. Press down on both sides to secure the locking tabs. Note: The water outlet on the tray will face the back of the bowl. The PetSafe ® logo indicates the front of the bowl.

12. Insert the butterfly topper into the hole on the top of the tower. This will provide your pet with four water streams to drink from. The butterfly’s head should face the back of the bowl.
    Note:
    The butterfly topper is optional. The fountain will provide a gentle bubbling flow without it.

13. Pick up the pet fountain by the bowl and place it in the desired location. Make sure the electrical power cord, the adaptor, and your hands are completely dry. Connect the in-line plug and make sure no silver is showing, then plug the adaptor into a standard electrical wall outlet.

Pet Fountain Cleaning

NOTE: Replace the carbon filter every 2-4 weeks and replace the foam filter every 1-2 months.

1. Unplug the fountain and disconnect the in-line plug.
2. Pick up the pet fountain by the bowl and take it to the sink.
3. Pour out the water, and then disassemble the pet fountain.
4. Discard the carbon filter and the foam filter. See steps 1-3 on page 5 for cleaning your pump. Use a solution of 80% water and 20% white vinegar to remove hard water buildup.
5. Wash all other parts with warm water and soap or place in the top rack of the dishwasher.
   NOTE: Do not place the adaptor or pump in the dishwasher.
