Troubleshooting
If the pump fails to operate, check the follow-
ing:
Check the circuit breaker, or try a different outlet to make
sure the pump is
getting electrical power.
NOTE: Always disconnect from electrical outlet before
handling the pump.
If the pump gurgles, spews, or “burps”:
Check the water level to make sure the pump has enough
water to function.
•Obtaining a desired water level:
Check the water level daily the first week to measure the
rate of evaporation;
refill with water as needed.
•If water is splashing outside the fountain:
Adjust the flow control lever to a lower setting on the pump.
Caution: All
servicing of this
fountain must be
performed by
authorized
HoMedics service
personnel only.

Maintenance
• To clean the pump:
Unplug from electrical outlet. Remove it from the base of the fountain.
Use a small brush or stream of water to remove any debris. (Fig 7)
To keep water clean:
Periodically change water and clean the product according to the water
condition. Keeping the water clean prevents the water from becoming
sticky and forming micro-organisms. We recommend distilled water to
prevent mineral build-up.
To clean off hard water deposits on the base:
Soak the container in a mixture of vinegar and water to clean and
remove any mineral build-up.
Keeping the water at an optimum level:
Add water periodically to keep water level at an optimum level to avoid
shortening the life of the pump.
NOTE: Never let the pump run dry, as this will shorten
the life of the pump.
Fountain Storage
Unplug the fountain from the electrical outlet, empty the water, and store
fountain in a dry, cool place.
