Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Assemble the 2-tier bowls.
- Connect the pump to the water outlet and place it in the lower bowl.
- Position the solar panel in a location that receives direct sunlight for most of the day. Use the included ground spike to secure it.
- Connect the pump and LED light to the solar panel.
- Fill the lower bowl with water, ensuring the pump is fully submerged.
- Allow the solar panel to charge for a few hours before initial operation.
Compatibility:
This feature is designed for outdoor use in gardens, patios, and decking areas. It is self-contained and does not require mains power. The solar panel is designed to work with the included pump and battery.
Care:
- Water Level: Ensure the water level is always sufficient to keep the pump submerged to prevent damage.
- Cleaning: Periodically clean the bowls to remove algae or debris. Use a soft cloth and mild soapy water if necessary, rinsing thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Pump Maintenance: Occasionally check the pump intake for blockages and gently clear any debris.
- Winter Storage: In freezing conditions, empty the water feature completely and store it indoors to prevent frost damage.
