Cleaning & Maintenance

Pump|

If the pump stops working or is running slow, you will need to disassemble and clean 

the pump to remove any debris/limescale from the filter and motor chamber, as shown below:

To disassemble the pump, ensure the unit is switched off. Remove the pump from the water 

tube and take the pump out of the water. Then, remove the pump cover, filter and impeller 

cover (Fig 4). Clean them with fresh water and place them back inside the pump.

Solar Panel 

The solar panel should be cleaned with a soft cloth on a regular basis to maintain an optimum 

efficiency.

Safety Warnings

1.  Do not strike the solar panel
2.  Do not let the pump run dry for long time
3.  Do not lift the pump by the power cord
4.  Only use freshwater when using this water feature

Storage

 

Ensure the battery is fully charged before storing and disconnecting all cables. We recommend 

the use of a cover to protect the water feature from dust/damage.

Troubleshooting

4.  Connect the wiring for both LED light and water pump to the solar panel (see figure 2). 

Please note, the charge port for this product is not used. This water feature is not supplied 

with a charger cable and it is also not available to purchase. Ensure sockets are sheltered 

from rain to avoid any water damage.

5.  Attach the stake to the back of the solar panel (see figure 3) and then secure it into soft 

ground. Ensure the panel is well-positioned where it can get direct sunlight during the day.

6.  Fill the bottom basin with water. The water level should be below the opening of the door at 

the back of the unit. Ensure both the water pump and LED light are immersed in the water. 

On First Use  

 

The built-in back-up lithium battery in this product will have been partially charged upon manufacture. However, 

on the date of purchase, the battery will lose its charge during shipping and storage. For best results, allow the 

solar panel to charge the battery for a full day in direct sunlight before using the pump. 

Direction for Use

 

This water feature is designed to run during the day in direct sunlight. Any excess power produced via the solar 

panel will be used to charge the back-up battery. This will allow for running of the pump and LED light in the 

evening. Please note, the evening runtime will vary depending on charge level of battery and weather conditions.
The LED light automatically illuminates in the evening, if there is sufficient charge in the battery.  

How to Turn On The Unit

 

To turn on the unit to start running the pump and the LED light, place your finger on the ‘on/off’ button on the 

rear of the solar panel for 1 second

How to Charge The Lithium Battery

 

To switch off the pump, place your finger on the ‘on/off’ button on the rear of the panel for 3 seconds to turn off 

the pump. When the pump/LED light is switched off, all of the charge generated by the solar panel will be stored 

in the back-up battery. 
Please note, this may have to be done periodically during inclement weather.

Battery status

 

On the reverse side of the solar panel, there is LED indicator light that will show you the battery charge status.
