USE & CARE
•
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.
•
Only use water in this fountain. Distilled water will help prevent mineral buildup but is not required, avoid heavily
chlorinated water as it may damage the fountain or pump.
•
Periodically change the water to keep the fountain and pump clean. Remove scale and buildup regularly.
DO NOT use harmful additives such as bleach, chlorine, etc.
DO NOT use a pressure washer or abrasive materials to wash the fountain.
•
Always shut off 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.
•
During freezing weather, 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, the fountain cracking, permanent pump damage, and /or
lighting malfunctions.
•
If after some time, water begins to flow more slowly from the downspouts, they may need cleaning. Take care not
to get anything lodged inside the spouts while cleaning.
TROUBLESHOOTING
•
Ensure that the pump is fully submerged and add water to the basin if necessary.
•
Check the pump and tubing for obstructions.
•
Check the flow control on the body of the pump; it may need to be adjusted to achieve a desired flow rate.
•
If the light is not working, ensure the cables are fully connected and the seal is adequately tightened (do not over-tighten).
•
If water is not flowing within several moments of the fountain being plugged in, unplug the power supply for a few
moments and plug it back in; the pump may have trapped air which can prevent water from circulating properly.
•
Check to make sure the power outlet is working; if in doubt about electrical connections, consult a certified electrician.
Any modification or failure to follow the recommended care will void the product warranty.
