ASSEMBLY
1. From the access hole in the back of the fountain, locate the built-in water tube and rmly attach the pump.
Place the pump inside the fountain and run the power cord out the access hole. TIP: Familiarize yourself
with the pump. Water ow is controlled by a switch on the front of the pump. Moving the switch to (+)
increases water ow, (-) decreases water ow.
2. Place the lantern post onto the top of the fountain, as shown.
3. Hang the solar lantern on the hook. Refer to page 2 for lantern operation.
4. Use a bucket or watering can to ll the fountain with enough water so that the pump will remain fully submerged
during operation. Water should not be above the bottom of the water circulation hole in the bottom basin.
5. Plug the power cord into a properly grounded GFCI outlet.

the water tube from the fountain will damage the
fountain and void the product warranty.
Inspect packaging to ensure all
parts are accounted for before
disposing of packing materials.
Note: When rst used, there may be air trapped in the pump. It may take several minutes for trapped air to escape, allowing water to ow.

Choosing the Right Location
• Select an outdoor location where the solar panel will receive at least 6-8 hours of full, direct sunlight each day. Ensure the solar
panel does not become shaded by trees, shrubs, or buildings throughout the day, as this will influence the battery's charge and
shorten the working time at night.
• Avoid locations with nighttime light sources nearby, such as street or porch lights. When the light detecting sensor receives too
much ambient light, the solar lantern will not illuminate.
Solar Lantern Operation
Switch the power button on the top of the solar lantern to the 'ON' position.
First Time Use: The solar lamp will require at least 8 hours of full, direct sunlight to fully charge the battery. Make sure the unit is
turned 'ON' while charging. If there is insu󰀩cient time to charge for a full 8 hours, turn the solar panel o󰀨 and wait until the following
day to nish charging.
As long as the battery has a su󰀩cient charge, the lamp will illuminate when it gets dark.
How Solar Lights Work
During the day, the solar panel converts solar energy into electricity and stores it in the rechargeable battery. At night, the light turns
on automatically via a light detecting sensor built into the unit. How long the light illuminates will depend upon the location of the light,
weather conditions, and how much direct sunlight the solar panel is exposed to. Ensure the power is switched to 'ON' while charging.
Accessing and Changing The Battery
1. Switch the power button to the 'OFF' position.
2. Remove the battery cover and gently remove the old battery.
3. Paying attention to the positive and negative terminals, gently insert the new battery.
4. Replace the battery cover and switch the power button to the 'ON' position.
5. To fully charge the battery, ensure the lantern is in a location that will receive at least 8 hours of full, direct sunlight before the rst
use with the new battery.
The Battery
The battery, like all rechargeable batteries, has a limited life span, and become less e󰀩cient with repeated charge/discharge cycles.
As the capacity of the battery reduces, the hours of operation will lessen, and the battery will need to be replaced.
IMPORTANT: Only use a compatible rechargeable battery (rechargeable AA, 300mAh 1.2V); an alternative battery may be incompatible,
which may damage the unit and will void the warranty. Dispose of the battery in accordance with local laws and regulations.
Solar Lantern Use & Care
• For outdoor use only.
• Keep away from children.
• Do not submerge in water.
• Keep the solar panel clean by gently wiping it with a soft, damp cloth. Clean solar panels will absorb more sunlight.
• Never use chemicals or abrasive materials to clean the lantern or solar panel.
• Store in a dry, warm, indoor location during inclement weather and freezing temperatures.
• Do not allow the unit to freeze. Freezing temperatures will damage the internal components.
• To help prolong the life of the battery, ensure it is fully charged before storing. Turn the unit off before storing it. Removing the
battery during storage is recommended.
This product uses a rechargeable battery. When the battery can no longer be used, it should be removed from the unit and recycled.
The battery must not be incinerated or composted. Recycle the battery in accordance with local laws and regulations.
Solar Lantern Troubleshooting
• Ensure the power button is turned to the 'ON' position.
• This product is designed to only illuminate at night. Make sure the light sensor is not receiving too much ambient light.
• If the light only works for a short time, attempt a 'Boost Charge':
- Turn the power 'ON' and let it charge in full, direct sunlight for at least 8 hours.
- Turn the power 'OFF' at night to conserve the battery.
- Repeat this process for 2-3 days. If the unit still does not work, the battery may need replacing.
• Over time, the glue holding the solar panel to the lantern may weaken. If components separate, carefully glue the solar panel to the lantern
using a suitable outdoor glue (not included) that is designed to adhere to plastic; consult a professional at your local hardware store.

• Ensure the pump is fully submerged under the water.
• If water is not flowing within several moments of the power cord being plugged in, the pump may have air bubbles
trapped in it, which can prevent water from circulating properly and/or may cause excess pump noise. Simply unplug
the power supply for a few moments and plug it back in.
• If water is still not flowing, inspect the pump and tubing for obstructions.
• Check the flow control on the body of the pump, it may need to be adjusted to achieve the desired water flow rate.
• Pump noise can be caused by trapped air, low water level, or the pump being too close to the sides of the fountain.
Check the pump. Try moving the pump and/or adding water to help reduce pump noise.
• Soft surfaces may cause the fountain to become unbalanced. A large stepping stone or paving stone (not included) is
recommended to help ensure the fountain remains evenly balanced.
• Check to make sure the power outlet is working; consult a certified electrician if in doubt about electrical connections.
• Refer to page 2 for solar lantern troubleshooting.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
• For outdoor use only.
• Keep fountain out of reach of children and pets.
• Make sure the power cord is away from traffic areas.
• Keep power cord away from all heat sources. Do not use electrical cords in areas with high temperatures.
• Check the water level frequently to ensure the pump remains fully submerged; never allow the pump to run dry as it will burn
out the motor.
• Always unplug the power supply before cleaning and maintaining the fountain and the recirculating pump.
• Always empty and store the fountain and pump indoors during freezing weather.
• For outdoor use only. Some splashing is normal; adjust the flow rate on the pump to reach desired flow rate.
• Some climates and weather conditions increase water evaporation, requiring water to be added more frequently.
Frequently check water levels during high temperatures, windy conditions, and after long-term exposure to direct
sunlight to ensure the pump does not run dry. Never allow the pump to run dry as it will burn out the motor.
• Only use water in this fountain. Distilled water will help prevent mineral buildup but is not required. Tap water is okay
to use, but avoid heavily chlorinated water as it may damage the fountain and the pump.
• Periodically change the water to keep the water, fountain, and pump clean. Remove scale and buildup regularly.
DO NOT use harmful additives such as bleach, chlorine, etc.
DO NOT use anything that is abrasive to scrub the fountain.
DO NOT use a pressure washer to clean the fountain.
• Always unplug the power supply before cleaning and maintaining the fountain and the recirculating pump. Take care
when handling the pump; only pick it up by the body of the pump, never the power cord.
• During freezing weather, drain the fountain, disconnect the pump and store indoors; allowing ice to form may damage
the fountain in such ways as, but not limited to, fountain cracking and/or permanent pump damage.
• Over time, the finish may gradually mellow in color due to sun exposure; this is part of the natural aging process and
is not cause for return.
