CAUTION CONTINUED

(See the warranty section for HoMedics address.)• Disconnect the appliance from outlet before putting hands into water.
Assembly and Instructions for Use
- Unpack the product. Wipe off dust with a damp cloth.
- Familiarize yourself with the pump. The pump speed is controlled by the dial located at the front of the pump. The speed is indicated by a “min” and “max” (Fig 1). At its highest speed level, the dial will cease to move any further. To decrease the pump speed, move the dial counter-clockwise toward the “min” sign. Similarly, at its lowest speed, the dial will cease to move any further.
- Lead the cord through the cord slot on the bottom of the base. This will ensure that the unit is balanced when placed on a flat surface. Attach the A/C adaptor jack to the base power cord. DO NOT plug into outlet at this time (Fig. 2).
- Place the platform on the supporting poles of the base (Fig. 2).
- Insert the PVC tube located under middle tier into the pump (Fig. 2).
- Insert the LED light cord through the small hole located under the middle tier (Fig. 2).
- Align the cut-out at the bottom edge of middle tier with the edge of base so it sits flat on the base (Fig. 3).NOTE: Pump position should be corresponding to the drawing on base.
- Insert the LED light connector into the LED light socket on the bottom of top tier, and then insert the water supply connector on the bottom of the top tier into the larger hole of the middle-tier (Fig. 4).
- Add clean water into middle tier (Approx. 10oz), and then into base (Approx. 56.5oz). The water level should be even with the watermark. Next, arrange the stones provided on the top tier, middle tier, and the platform as desired (Fig. 5).
- Plug the cord into 120V household outlet. The fountain is controlled by the switch located on the power cord. If PUMP pump doesn’t operate, rotate the in-line switch once to turn “on” and once more to turn “off”.NOTE: Ensure that the electrical cord loops below the electrical outlet to form a ‘Drip Loop’ (Fig. 6). This will prevent water from running down the cord into the electrical outlet.
- As this product has two flowing directions, unplug the power source before changing fountain position. To do so, turn top tier counterclockwise 90 degrees. When water has stopped flowing from it, switch the fountain back on (Fig. 7).
NOTE: Pump position should be corresponding to the drawing on base.
Maintenance
- To clean the pump:Unplug from electrical outlet. Remove it from the base of the fountain.Use a small brush or stream of water to remove any debris (Fig 8).
- To keep water clean:Periodically change water and clean the product according to the water condition. Keeping the water clean prevents the water from becoming sticky and forming micro-organisms.
- To clean off hard water deposits on the base or rocks:Soak the container and rocks in a mixture of vinegar and water to clean and remove any mineral build-up.
- Keeping the water at an optimum level:Add water periodically to keep water level at an optimum level to avoid shortening the life of the pump.NOTE: Never let the pump run dry, as this will shorten the life of the pump.
- Fountain StorageUnplug the fountain from the electrical outlet, empty the water, and store rocks and fountain in a dry, cool place.
Caution: All servicing of this fountain must be performed by authorized HoMedics service personnel only.Attention: In order to get best results, please operate pump completely submerged. Keep the water level above the minimum water level ALL THE TIME.
Troubleshooting
- If the pump fails to operate, check the following: Check the circuit breaker, or try a different outlet to make sure the pump is getting electrical power. NOTE: Always disconnect from electrical outlet before handling the pump. Check the pump discharge and tubing for kinks and obstructions. Algae build up can be flushed out with a garden hose. Remove the pump inlet to access the impeller area. Turn the rotor to ensure it is not broken or jammed. Monthly maintenance will add to your pump’s life.NOTE: Ensure that the electrical cord loops below the electrical outlet to form a ‘Drip Loop’. This will prevent water from running down the cord into the electrical outlet.
- If the pump gurgles, spews, or “burps”:Check the water level to make sure the pump has enough water to function.
- Obtaining a desired water level:Check the water level daily the first week to measure the rate of evaporation; refill with water as needed.
- If water is splashing outside the fountain:Rocks that are hit by water and also touch the edge of the base will cause water to splash outside of the base and contribute to the splash factor. Expect some splash to occur as you get the rocks organized.If splash continues, adjust the flow control valve to a lower setting, and/or rearrange the river rocks by moving them away from the edge of the base.
