5. Instruccions de funcionament

The NPET DF10 fountain offers three distinct drinking modes to cater to different pet preferences and encourage increased water intake.

Image 5.1: The three available drinking modes.

• Fountain Lid Drinking: Pets can drink directly from the top surface of the fountain lid where water collects.
• Upper Fountain Area: Water flows gently over a wider area on the upper part of the fountain, providing a calm drinking surface.
• Riera de la cascada: A continuous stream of water flows from the spout, mimicking a natural waterfall, which can attract pets to drink more.

The continuous circulation of water helps to oxygenate it and maintain freshness, making it more appealing to pets.
