FIRST THINGS FIRST:
Bernini Fountains is dedicated to
our customers. We strive to make
your customer care experience
as pleasurable as possible. With
that being said, there are always
circumstances beyond our
control when a fountain doesn’t
work or breaks under normal
operating conditions. We think
it’s important that you know what
you can expect from us. This is
why we have a limited one year
warranty on our fountains.

HOW THE SELF-WATERING SYSTEM WORKS
Your self-watering garden fountain waters from the bottom up. Do not worry if you
do not see the top soil becoming wet after the first day or two of use. The bottom
layer of the soil will be watered every time you run the fountain. After approximately
3 days, the soil will reach its maximum water level. The water will steadily climb to
just below the surface of the soil, while your fountain is on, the water level rises,
watering your plant from bottom to top. (Figure 5).
When your fountain is off, the roots of your plant will be aerated to produce strong
healthy roots. When the fountain is on, the water level will rise above the surface of
the top planter bowl, saturating the soil (Figure 6).

14| Remember if you need help contact Customer Care: 1+ [phone]
PLANTER
To install the Bowl as a Planter:
• Take the Bowl and 3 Prong Foot, line up the arrows (Figure 11 white circle) on
the 3 Prong Foot to the “Planter” position located on the bottom of the bowl
(Figure 8).
• Align the arrows and push firmly to lock in place.
• There are 2 small holes on the bottom of the planter that will allow water to be
absorbed from the bottom of the bowl when fountain is running (Figure 4, 5 &
6).
• Place the Bowl and Foot on top of the fountain. Be sure to not cover the button
or light on top of the fountain.
• Push on 3 Prong Foot to secure.
• Once Planter is in place use your favorite soil (do not over pack) and plant your
new addition to your family.
• Push button to enjoy your fountain.
