When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and/or injury to persons, including the following:

  • Read all instructions before using this product.
  • To reduce the risk of injury, close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
  • To protect against electric shock, do not place an electrical power cord or plug in water or other liquids.
  • Do not operate any appliance if it has a damaged electrical power cord or plug, or if it is malfunctioning or has been damaged. Call the Customer Care Center immediately for further instructions.
  • To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not place or store an appliance where it can fall or be pulled into a bathtub or sink.
  • Always unplug any appliance when not in use, before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning.
  • Do not use an appliance for anything other than its intended use.
  • If the plug of this device gets wet, turn off the electricity to that electrical outlet. Do not attempt to unplug.
  • Examine this appliance after installation. Do not plug into the electrical outlet if there is water on the electrical power cord or plug.

Do not allow pets to chew on or swallow any parts. If you are concerned your pet may chew the power cord,purchase a cord conduit (a hard plastic protector) at any hardware store.

  • The plastic fountain parts are BPA-FREE. However, some animals have been known to be sensitive to plastic food and water containers. If your animal shows signs of an allergic reaction to the plastic, please discontinue use until you have consulted with your veterinarian.

  • The fountain is intended to run continuously (always plugged into an electrical outlet), as long as the water level is maintained and the fountain is cleaned regularly. Be sure to check the water level regularly to help prevent damage to the pump, as your pet will drink the water, and some may evaporate.
  • Do not attempt repairs on the pump.
  • Do not pull on the electrical power cord to remove the plug from the electrical outlet.
  • To unplug, grasp the plug, not the electrical power cord.
  • To avoid the possibility of the plug or electrical outlet getting wet, the electrical outlet should always be above the level of the fountain.
  • If an extension cord is necessary, an extension cord with a proper rating should be used.
  • The electrical use of this appliance is 8 watts.
  • The use of attachments not recommended or sold by the manufacturer may cause an unsafe condition. Do not modify the appliance.
  • Do not install or store appliances where they will be exposed to weather or temperatures below 40° F.
  • Read and observe all important notices listed on the appliance and in the packaging.
  • 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.
  • Use only PetSafe® Brand authorized replacement filters. If unauthorized filters are used, the warranty may be voided.
  • Do not use outdoors. Do not run dry. For indoor household use only.

In the Box

Assemble Pet Fountain

  1. Rinse all fountain components (except for the adaptor) with warm water before use. This will remove any residue from the manufacturing process. Place the foam filter inside the bowl as shown.
  2. Place the pump inside the foam filter on the bottom of the bowl. The cord will be closest to the hole on the back of the bowl.  Press down on the pump to engage the suction cups.
  3. Once the pump is securely in place, feed the cord through the hole on the back of the bowl and out the notch on the bottom of the bowl.
  4. Remove the extra slack from the cord and push the rubber gasket firmly into the hole.
  5. Attach the rubber connector to the pump tube if it is not already attached.
  6. Open the filter housing by using the tabs to pull it apart.
  7. Rinse the carbon filter thoroughly under cold water to remove any loose carbon dust. Insert the rounded side of the carbon filter into the rounded side (Side A) of the filter housing.
  8. Close the filter housing by aligning the clips from the bottom and pressing down until it snaps shut.
  9. Insert the filter housing into the pump tube. Attach the bottom of the filter housing to the pump tube.
  10.  Align the bottom tab of the filter housing with the raised notch. The flat side (Side B) of the filter housing will be facing the front of the bowl.
  11. Attach the tower by aligning it with the raised notches on the back of the bowl.
  12. Insert the flow control knob into the hole on the top of the tower. Turn the knob clockwise to maximize the water stream. Turn the knob counterclockwise to decrease the water stream or shut it off.
  13. Attach the lid to the tower. Pick up the pet fountain by the bowl and place it in the desired location. Pour water into the bowl, leaving 1/2 inch of space between the water level and the rim of the bowl.
  14. Make sure the electrical power cord, the adaptor, and your hands are completely dry. Connect the in-line plug and make sure no silver is showing, then plug the adapter into a standard electrical wall outlet.NOTE: Never let the water level fall below 1 inch from the base of the bowl or your pump might fail.
