Troubleshooting
• If the pump fails to operate, check the following:
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

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 8)
• 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.
