6) Rinse the charcoal filter thoroughly in cold water to help remove any

excess and loose charcoal dust. Once the filter is rinsed off, place

inside the filter housing case with the larger side facing down (Fig. 6).

The filter will only fit inside the case one way, if it does not fit, flip it

over. Attach the lid to the filter housing case, press down until you

hear it snap in place.

7) Attach the filter housing case to the pump by inserting the raised notch

into the circular opening on top of the pump (Fig. 7). The opening on

top of the filter housing should be right next to the sealed raised post.

8) Align the tower with the circular indentation inside the bowl and

carefully lower it until it rests flat. The rubber grommet will create a

seal between the filter housing and the tower.

9) Place the fountain in a desired location. If placing on carpet,

tile or wood flooring, use a protective mat or other durable,

water resistant surface. This will help protect your floor from any

splashing or spills caused by your pet.

10) Fill the fountain by pouring water directly into the bowl. Leave at

least a half inch (1.27 cm) of space between the water level and the

rim of the bowl to help control spills and splashing.

11) Make sure the cord, the adaptor and your hands are completely dry

before you plug the fountain in. Connect the inline plug and make sure

no silver is showing, then plug the adaptor into an electrical outlet.

12) Add water to the fountain as needed. Never let the water level fall

below 1” (2.54 cm) in height or you may risk burning out the pump.

Replacement pumps are sold separately by calling Customer Care

at 800-732-2677 or online at www.petsafe.net.

finger under the lip and pull straight up to remove (Fig. 11).

6) While securely holding the cord and the bottom of the bowl with

both hands, dump out the remaining water inside the bowl into a

sink.

7) With the inline plug disconnected and water removed, grab the

pump and lift straight up to disengage the suction cups. Continue

pulling the pump’s cord up and out through the raised post in the

center of the bowl. Once the pump is completely removed from the

bowl, seperate the foam filter and set aside for proper cleaning.

Filters & Fountain

Cleaning

Fig. 10 Fig. 11

Filters are an added feature of the fountain. Their use is not required for normal

operation. However, when used properly and changed regularly, the filters help keep

the water cleaner and fresher, while extending the life of your fountain. Filters may be

rinsed out when the fountain is cleaned. Never wash the filter with soapy water, as

the soap residue will seep into the filter and cannot be removed. Only rinse the filter

with water. To purchase replacement filters, visit your local retailer or www.petsafe.net.

Charcoal Filter:

Filters should be changed every two to four weeks. Replace filters

more frequently when using the fountain for multiple pets or pets

that produce a lot of saliva.

Foam Filter:

Replace the foam filter every 4 to 8 weeks, depending on the

location of the fountain and the number of pets using it. If you do

not intend to replace the filter at the time of cleaning, rinse the foam

filter thoroughly with fresh water.

The fountain is equipped with two types of filters that should be replaced

on a regular basis. A charcoal filter removes bad tastes and odors, keeping

water fresh. A foam filter collects hair and debris and prevents it from

reaching the pump, providing optimal filtration. The filters together will keep

the pump cleaner and provide fresher water to your pet.

1) Remove the pump from the fountain as explained in the Filters and

Fountain Cleaning section (Steps 6 & 7).

2) Remove the faceplate by using your thumb and forefinger to gently

squeeze on both sides of the plate and pull off. It may be necessary to

insert a fingernail or other slim object into the seam of the faceplate to

pry it off.

3) Next, remove the stator by placing your fingernail underneath the small

lip located on the narrow side of teardrop-shaped stator (Fig. 12) and

pull out to remove (Fig. 13).

Cleaning the pump is essential to the longevity of the fountain as well as the

cleanliness of the water. Clean the pump every 2 weeks.

4) Once the stator is removed, remove the impeller (3 bladed propeller).

The impeller is held in place by a magnet, simply insert a fingernail or

other slim object underneath the plastic blade and lift out (Fig. 14, Pg 9).

1) Place the pump inside the foam

filter (Fig. 1, Pg 3) then place

inside the square indention.

Make sure the circular opening

on top of the pump is positioned

in the bottom right corner (Fig.

16). Press down on the pump to

engage the suction cups. Once

the pump is securely in place,

feed the cord over and through

the raised post and out the notch

on the bottom side of the bowl

(Fig. 17, Pg 10).

5) Once the pump is completely disassembled, you can clean the parts

with soap and warm water. Use a cotton swab or bottle brush to

get inside the pump’s cavity and remove any build up (Fig. 15). For

added disinfecting and/or hard water removal, clean the pump with

white vinegar.

6) Once the parts are clean and well rinsed, you can reassemble the

pump for use.

a) Replace the impeller

b) Replace the stator

c) Replace the intake plate

4) Once the filter is rinsed off, place inside the filter housing case with

the larger side facing down. The filter will only fit inside the case one

way, if it does not fit, flip it over. Attach the lid to the filter housing

case, press down until you hear it snap in place.

5) Attach the filter housing case to the pump by inserting the raised notch

inside the circular opening on top of the pump (Fig. 18). The opening

on top of the filter case should be right next to the raised post.

2) Once the extra slack is

removed from the cord, affix

the rubber cap over the post to

seal off the bowl.

3) Rinse a new charcoal filter

thoroughly in cold water to help

remove any excess and loose

charcoal dust.

6) Reinsert the rubber grommet into the circular opening at the top of the

tower. Place it inside the hole and then gently work the piece into the

hole so that the top edge rests flat inside the dish. This will create a

seal between the filter housing case and the tower (Fig. 19).

7) Align the tower with the circular

indentation inside the bowl and

carefully lower it until it rests

flat (Fig. 20).

Fig. 20 a) Clean the pump more frequently

b) Clean with regular white vinegar

and let the vinegar soak for

several minutes down inside the

pump’s cavity

c) Use bottled water

Living in a humid environment, you may experience problems with mold or

algae, making the fountain feel slimy. Simply soak all of the plastic parts

(excluding the pump) in a diluted bleach solution for about ten minutes after

regular cleaning. We recommend using a mixture of 10% bleach and 90%

water. Pour some of the bleach solution inside the pump’s cavity as well

for additional disinfecting. Be sure to rinse all the parts very thoroughly

to remove all the chlorine. The best way to rinse out the pump’s cavity is

to hold it under a weak stream of water. Cleaning the fountain parts with a

bleach solution is also a great way to disinfect.

If hard water is an issue where you live, you may see white mineral

deposits inside the housing and inside the pump. These mineral deposits

may eventually prevent the impeller from turning properly. To avoid having

to replace the pump:

8) Place the fountain in a desired location. If placing on carpet,

tile or wood flooring, use a protective mat or other durable,

water resistant surface. This will help protect your floor from any

splashing or spills caused by your pet.

9) Fill the fountain by pouring water directly into the bowl. Leave at

least a half inch (1.27 cm) of space between the water level and the

rim of the bowl to help control spills and splashing.

10) Make sure the cord, the adaptor and your hands are completely dry

before you plug the fountain in. Connect the inline plug and make sure

no silver is showing, then plug the adaptor into an electrical outlet.
