Do not attempt to unplug. The outlet should always be above the level of the fountain. Do not operate any appliance if it has a damaged cord or plug, or if it is malfunctioning or has been damaged.

†Capacity is calculated by total volume. When using container, choose a capacity greater than what you need to prevent overfilling and spills.

Filter cartridges should be changed every 2 - 4 weeks. Disassemble and clean the fountain once a week. Disassemble and clean the pump every two weeks. The fountain is dishwasher safe.

Pump Maintenance

Cleaning the pump is essential to the longevity of the fountain as well as the cleanliness of the water.

1. Unplug the fountain.
2. Remove the top bowl from the lower bowl.
3. Unplug the power cord from the transformer.
4. Remove the top cover of the pump housing and set aside.
5. Gently lift the motor out of the cavity of pump housing. Suction cups on the bottom of the motor will hold it in place. A small amount of force may be necessary.
6. Once the motor is out of the fountain, with your thumb and forefinger, gently squeeze on either side of the intake plate, and pull off. It may be necessary to insert a fingernail into the seam of the inlet plate to pry it open.
7. Remove the stator by placing your finger nail under the small lip located on the narrow side of the tear drop shaped stator and pull out.
8. Once the stator is removed you can also remove the impeller (three bladed propeller) which is held in place magnetically. To remove the impeller, use a fingernail to get under a blade and lift it out.
9. Rinse well.
10. Once the parts are clean you can reassemble the motor for use by replacing the impeller, stator and cover plate.
