SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
A. ASSEMBLY
Remove all components from lower bowl (H).
1. Attach pump tube (B) to upper bowl (A), aligning the
notch on the top edge of pump tube (B1) with the
ridge on the inlet of upper bowl (A2) as shown in Fig.
2. Push together firmly until both retaining clips
click into position.
2. Check pump (D) is set to the highest flow rate by
rotating flow adjuster (D1) clockwise to the 'MAX'
setting (Fig. 3). Fit pump (D) on to bottom end of pump
tube (B) as shown by arrow (1) in Fig. 4 and secure in
place by turning retaining lock (C), as shown by arrow
(2). Fit power cord into appropriate guide hole (A3)
according to the location of power supply.
3. Remove filter cartridge (F) from packaging and rinse
under a tap to remove any charcoal dust. Insert filter
cartridge, side strainers (G) and top baffle (E) into
main bowl (H) as shown in Fig. 1.
NOTE: With more than one pet, we recommend the
top baffle (E) is replaced with an extra filter cartridge
(available separately) to help increase the time
interval for filter replacement.
4. Fit the upper bowl assembly (A, B, C and D) onto
main bowl (H), taking care to ensure that upper bowl
retaining clips (A1) are fully located into the recesses
of main bowl (H1).
CAUTION: Once filled with water, the pet fountain can
weigh up to 6kg (13lbs) and will be difficult to carry.
We recommend that you position the pet fountain in
your chosen location before filling with a jug.
5. Fill main bowl (H) with water up to the top of side
strainer (G). Connect transformer (I) to pump (D) and
plug into power supply.
WHEN IN USE, DO NOT LET THE WATER LEVEL
FALL BELOW 'MIN' MARK (X, Fig. 1).
B. CLEANING
Before introducing your pet to their new fountain we
recommend you run the fountain for approximately
2 hours and then clean as follows:
1. Turn off power supply and unplug transformer (I).
2. Remove upper bowl assembly by pressing retaining
clips (A1) on both sides of upper bowl and lifting off.
Ease power cord out of upper bowl guide hole (A3).
3. Remove pump (D) from pump tube (B) by turning
retaining lock (C) clockwise.
4. Remove filter cartridge(s) (F) from main bowl (H).
All parts excluding pump (D), filter cartridge (F) and
transformer (I) may be washed in a dishwasher.
C. MONTHLY MAINTENANCE (or when flow rate has
noticeably reduced)
1. Filter cartridge replacement
A CLOGGED FILTER CARTRIDGE WILL CAUSE
POOR OPERATION AND PREMATURE PUMP
FAILURE.
Always use genuine DOG MATE 3-Stage Filter
Cartridges (4 Pack, Product Ref. 386 - available from
www.pet-mate.com) which will ensure the healthiest
water for your pet and reduce pump maintenance
4
With one pet, we recommend you replace the filter
cartridge (F) monthly.
For two or more pets, you may need to replace the filter
cartridge more regularly if it becomes clogged.
If using two filter cartridges, we recommend that you
discard the lower cartridge only and fit a new cartridge
above the old upper cartridge.
2. Pump maintenance
IMPORTANT: CLEANING THE PUMP IS ESSENTIAL
TO PREVENT THE BUILD UP OF LIMESCALE AND
SUBSEQUENT PUMP FAILURE. IN HARD WATER
AREAS YOU MAY NEED TO DO THIS AT LEAST
EVERY TWO WEEKS.
Remove pump (D) from pump tube (B) by turning
retaining lock (C) clockwise, taking care to ease power
cord from recess (A3).
Carefully disassemble as follows:
i) Remove front cover (J) by inserting a fingernail into
the seam and pulling away in the direction as shown
by arrow in Fig. 5.
ii) Remove impeller cover (K) by lifting from the small lip,
as circled in Fig. 6.
iii) Use pliers or tweezers to pull out impeller (L) which is
held in place by a magnet.
iv) Place all parts, including pump body (D) excluding
power cord, into a small bowl containing a solution of
warm water and vinegar in equal amounts and leave
to soak.
v) After 2-3 hours rub off limescale deposits. Use a
small brush or cotton bud to clean inside the impeller
tunnel (M).
vi) Rinse all parts well and carefully reassemble.
D. TROUBLESHOOTING
1. Pump does not pump water or 'gurgles':
• When switching on for the first time or after
cleaning etc., wait a few minutes for pump to dispel
trapped air. If pump still fails to pump water,
dismantle the pump as described in pump
maintenance (section C.2) and rinse all parts in
water to remove any debris.
• Ensure water level is well above the 'MIN' mark
(X, Fig. 1).
• Check filter cartridge is clean and is not clogged.
• Pump requires maintenance. See C.2. above.
• Renew pump (Product Ref. 354 - available from
www.pet-mate.com).
2. Pet will not drink from fountain:
• Most pets will be instantly attracted by the running
water but sometimes need time to adapt to using
their new water source. It may help to try switching
off the pump initially.
• Some pets are put off by contaminants in water
which should normally be eliminated by the filter over
the first day or so. Always take care to ensure that
your pet does not become dehydrated.
NOTE: The pet fountain and filter cartridge are
manufactured entirely from BPA-free plastics for your
pet's health.
