Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your PETLIBRO Automatic Cat Feeder, please refer to the following common solutions:

  • Feeder Not Connecting to Wi-Fi: Ensure your Wi-Fi network is 2.4GHz. The feeder does not support 5GHz networks. Check your router settings or contact your internet service provider for assistance.
  • Food Not Dispensing: Verify that the food tank is not empty and that the kibble size is within the recommended range (2-15mm). Larger kibble or wet food can cause jamming. Check for any obstructions in the dispensing mechanism.
  • Pet Overeating/Accessing Food: Ensure the lid is securely locked. The feeder features a press-to-lock lid designed to prevent pets from accessing food outside of scheduled times.
  • Battery Life Shorter Than Expected: Ensure the battery is fully charged (8 hours). Frequent manual feeds or poor Wi-Fi signal strength can impact battery life.
  • General Malfunction: Try restarting the feeder by turning it off and on. If the issue persists, refer to the detailed troubleshooting section in the full User Manual (PDF) available online or contact PETLIBRO customer support.
