Fountain Reassembly
1. Replace the pump by aligning the unit into its fitted space inside
the bowl (Fig. 12). The suction cups on the pump should be
facing down and the flow control knob facing into the bowl.
Gently push down to engage suction cups.
2. Thread the in-line plug of the electrical power cord through the
hole located next to pump and push the rubber gasket firmly into
the hole. To insure the fountain bowl is stable, run the electrical
power cord along the “cord channel” and through the notch in
the base of the fountain (Fig. 13).
3. Attach the housing by sliding the cutout in the wall of the
housing down over the flow control knob. The housing will click
into place when the side tabs are inserted in the bowl (Fig. 14).
4. Replace the charcoal filter, with the black side facing the front of
the fountain towards the spout.
5. Place fountain in desired location. Do not pick up a full fountain
by the housing. Only pick up the fountain by placing both hands
underneath the base of the fountain and grip the sidewalls for a
sturdy hold.
6. Fill the bowl with water and replace the housing lid.
Note:
To protect your floor always use a protective mat such
as a towel or water-resistant placemat. This will help protect
your floor from splashing or spills caused by your pet.
7. Before you plug in the fountain make sure the electrical power
cord, the adaptor and your hands are dry. Connect the in-line
plug and makes sure no silver is showing then plug the adaptor
into a standard electrical wall outlet.
Attaching Additional Capacity
Reservoir (available accessory)
The additional capacity reservoir easily attaches to the back
of the Drinkwell®Original Fountain to increase the fountain’s
overall capacity and make refills easier. With the use of the 50 oz.
reservoir, the fountain’s total capacity increases to 100 oz.
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. The base, which supports the reservoir container, has two tabs
that slide over the opening at the back of the fountain (Fig. 15).
2. Place the fountain in a desired location. Hook the two tabs of
the base over the rear wall at the back of the fountain (Fig.
16). The base must be properly attached to avoid spills when
the reservoir is added. If you have an active household, do not
place the fountain in an area where the reservoir can easily be
knocked over.
3. Remove the lid and fill the reservoir with fresh water.
4. Make sure the O-ring rests flat inside the groove of the lid, this
creates an airtight seal. Replace the lid.
5. Hold the reservoir over the base with the spout farthest away
from the fountain. Quickly turn the reservoir upside down onto
the base (Fig. 17). Make sure the spout is inserted into the
opening on the back of the fountain. Some loss of water is
normal and will be contained by the base.
6. The water level will adjust until the fountain is filled to capacity.
Monitor the water level of the reservoir and refill when needed.
