ACCLIMATING YOUR CAT

To acclimate your cat to the new LitterMaid® Advanced Automatic Self-Cleaning litter box, we suggest following this procedure.

Place the LitterMaid® unit next to your old litter box.

Set it to run automatically by pressing the ON/OFF button ON. Important: When the On/Off button is in the Off position it only disables the rake function.

Do not clean out the old litter box. Cats prefer to use a clean box, and the LitterMaid® litter box will always be clean.

If your cat is shy, do not operate the LitterMaid® litter box automatically

for 2 to 3 days. Do it manually by pressing the ON/OFF button once and then turning it off.

Manually activate the LitterMaid® litter box 2 to 3 times a day for the first

2 to 3 days, to let your cat get used to going into the LitterMaid® litter box, and how it sounds and works; you can then set it to clean automatically.

As soon as your cat is acclimated to the LitterMaidlitter box, set it to clean automatically. Press the ON/OFF button to ON and remove the old litter box.

Note: Do not place your LitterMaid® litter box in a wet environment or in direct sunlight. Do not use outdoors or on patios.

Care and Cleaning

This product contains no user serviceable parts. Refer service to qualified service personnel.

Sensor Covers

The two sensors located on the interior side panels are protected by sensor covers that need to be kept dust free. After changing or adding litter, wipe each sensor with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust.

Litter Tray

Use only hard clumping litter. Low quality or non-clumpling litter will impair performance and may damage your unit.

To empty and clean litter tray:

Check to make sure rake is in home position.

Press the ON/OFF button to turn unit OFF.

Important: When the On/Off button is in the Off position it only disables the rake function.

Unplug unit and remove batteries to prevent accidental activation of the unit.

Remove the waste receptacle.

Remove the rake.

Remove the top housing.

Dispose of the used litter. To ensure proper disposal of litter, follow manufacturer's instructions on litter package. Wipe the litter tray with a damp cloth. If further cleaning is necessary, the litter tray can be fully immersed in water and washed with a mild detergent.

Important: Do not soak or immerse the top housing in water. To clean wipe with damp cloth. Dry the unit completely before reassembling.

Before reassembling, spray litter tray surface with nonstick cooking spray or silicone spray, and wipe with a soft, dry cloth. This will help to prevent waste clumps from adhering to the surface of the tray.

Removing Disposable Waste Receptacle

We recommend avoiding contact with waste material. Wear rubber or latex gloves when handling used disposable waste receptacle.
