switch (or individual breaker plug) with an
operating current of no more than 30 mA.
• This appliance may be used by children aged
8 and over and by people with reduced phys-
ical, sensory or mental capabilities or with a

• This fountain for cats and small dogs must
only be used for its intended purpose.
• Ensure that the power cable is placed where it
cannot be bitten or damaged by your pet.
• Please ensure that children do not drink from
the fountain. Never put any poisonous sub-
stances or supplements (e.g. scented oils) in
which could accidentally be ingested by chil-
dren or pets.
• There is a risk of electric shock if electronic
devices come into contact with water. While
the fountain is in use, it may occasionally
cause water to be splashed. Therefore, do not
place the fountain on top of an electronic
device. Position it so that if it is bumped or
knocked over accidentally, the water or
splashes that come out cannot come into
contact with electronic devices.
