ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
4. Align the notch on the bottom of the vase (A) with the
tube on the basin (B), then attach the vase (A) to the
basin (B).
5. Fill basin (B) with water, making sure the pump (C) is
fully submerged. Then, plug item into nearest outlet.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to spill water onto the plug of the pump.
DO NOT allow the pump to run dry!
Note:
This fountain is equipped with a temperature-detecting auto-shut off pump. When there is
less water in the fountain than the required minimum or the pump runs dry, the pump can overheat
and become damaged. This auto-shut off pump is designed to deactivate the pump when it overheats.
When this happens, the pump is not broken. Add more water to cover the pump. When temperature of
the pump drops, the pump will reactivate.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
•
Keep water clean. Using clean water will reduce mineral deposits, improve water clarity and
prolong the life of the pump.
•
Check regularly that the water reservoir has sufficient water to cover the pump at all times. It will
be necessary to check more frequently in warm or windy weather.
•
The pump rotor will require cleaning at approximately monthly intervals. A good indication will be if
the water flow rate drops. Switch off and unplug the water feature, remove the pump from the
water reservoir and disconnect the water pipe. Remove the filtering cover and pressure-casing
from the front of pump body. Clean the rotor and housing in clean water using cotton buds. Reas-
semble the pump, reconnect the water pipe and reassemble the water feature.
•
Periodically it will be necessary to change the water and clean the water feature and reservoir.
•
The frequency of this will depend on the weather and location of the water feature. The outside of
the water feature can be cleaned using a soft cloth and clean water and the reservoir with a soft
brush. A mild detergent can be used but please note that this will cause the water to foam and
should be avoided unless strictly necessary.
•
Disconnect the power and empty the basin if the fountain will not be used for an extended time.
•
If installed outdoors and in a freeze-prone area of the country, ensure all water is removed and
the unit is completely dry before temperatures drop too low. This product is NOT to be operated
below 41°F or freeze damage may occur.
