• 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:

Clean 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 and to avoid shortening the life of the pump. N O T E : Never let the pump run dry.

• Fountain Storage

Unplug the fountain from the electrical outlet, empty the water, and store in a dry, cool place. To store the provided cleaning pin lift fountain lid and snap into clip (Fig. 4).

• If water of rainfall holes fail to flow:

Take off the lid and remove cleaning pin. Take cleaning pin and stick through holes several times (Fig 5). When finished snap cleaning pin into place and replace lid.

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. N O T E : 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 valve to a lower setting on the pump.
