IMPORTANT NOTES:
Use care when unpacking and assembling this fountain. Before assembly, check the basin for leaks. The sealant used to join the slate pieces can crack if the fountain is not handled with care. Simply add water and wait to see if water begins to leak. If a leak is discovered, contact an expert at your local hardware store for an appropriate sealant and carefully follow the sealant manufacturer’s instructions to seal the leak.

The water tubing is built into the fountain body. Take care when handling the water tube; detaching the water tube will damage the fountain and void the product warranty.

The light and light cable are rated for contact with water. Use care when handling the light, dropping the light may cause the light to burn out prematurely.
Slate is a natural product; the colors and texture of each piece are unique, no two fountains will look the same. Each piece is cut from a large slab of slate. Spalling (flaking) may occur during production, naturally over time, and/or if slate is dropped. Variations in the natural characteristics of slate are not a cause for return.

WARNING : THE ONE-YEAR WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER DAMAGES OR DEFECTS CAUSED BY THE APPLICATION OF CHEMICAL TREATMENTS, PROTECTIVE COATINGS, SEALANTS OR CLEANING PRODUCTS.

Care & Maintenance

• For outdoor use only. Some splashing is normal; adjust the flow rate on the pump if the water rate is too high.
• Check the water level frequently to ensure the pump remains fully submerged; never allow the pump to run dry as it will burn out the motor.
• Some climates and weather conditions increase water evaporation, requiring water to be added more frequently. Frequently check water levels, especially during high temperatures, long-term exposure to direct sunlight, and windy conditions to ensure the pump does not run dry.
• Only use water in this fountain. Distilled water will help prevent mineral buildup but is not required. Tap water is okay to use, but avoid heavily chlorinated water as it may damage the fountain and pump.
• Periodically change the water to reduce scale and buildup — clean components regularly for optimal performance and appearance. DO NOT use abrasive materials and harmful additives such as bleach or chlorine to clean the fountain or pump. Additionally, never use a pressure washer to clean this unit.
• Always unplug the power supply before cleaning and maintaining the fountain and the recirculating pump.
• Take care when handling the pump; only pick it up by the body of the pump, never the power cord.
• During freezing temperatures, drain the fountain, disconnect the pump, and store indoors; allowing ice to form may damage the fountain in such ways as, but not limited to, fountain cracking, lighting malfunction, and/or permanent pump damage.

Troubleshooting

• If water is not flowing within several moments of the fountain being plugged in, ensure the pump is fully submerged underwater. Add water to the reservoir if necessary. The pump may have air bubbles in the filter that can prevent water from circulating properly and can also cause excess pump noise. Unplug the power supply for a few moments and plug it back in.
• Check the flow control on the body of the pump, it may need to be adjusted to achieve the desired water flow rate.
• Inspect the pump and tubing for obstructions.
• Pump noise can be caused by trapped air, low water level, or the pump being too close to the walls of the fountain. While the pump is fully submerged, try gently tapping the pump with your finger to help release the trapped air. Also, try adding water or moving the pump to help reduce noise.
• Make sure the AC adapter is fully connected to the pump power cable. If the light is not working, ensure the cable is fully connected and the seal is adequately tightened (do not over-tighten).
• Make sure the power outlet is working; consult a certified electrician when in doubt about electrical connections.

• Fountains may splash or leak; always protect surfaces that can be damaged by water.
• Prevent water loss and damage to electrical sockets by ensuring the power cord has a drip loop; refer to the diagram on the right.
• Keep fountain out of reach of children and pets.
• Make sure the power cord is away from areas where it could be a trip hazard.
• Keep power cord away from all heat sources. Do not use electrical cords in areas with high temperatures.
• Check the water level frequently to ensure the pump remains fully submerged; never allow the pump to run dry as it will burn out the motor.
• Always unplug the power supply before cleaning and maintaining the fountain and the recirculating pump.
• Take care when handling the pump; only pick it up by the body of the pump, never by the power cord.
• Always empty and store the fountain and pump indoors during freezing temperatures.
