Your PetPivot Self Cleaning Cat Litter Box is equipped with multiple safety features to protect your cat during operation. It incorporates advanced sensor technology to prevent accidental injury.

4. Setup Guide

1. Unpacking: Carefully remove all components from the packaging. The waste container and support legs are pre-installed for your convenience.
2. Placement: Position the litter box on a flat, stable surface in a location easily accessible by your cat and near a power outlet. Ensure adequate space around the unit for proper operation and maintenance.
3. Add Litter: Fill the litter chamber with clumping cat litter. The PetPivot litter box is ideal for bentonite and mineral litters. Do not use tofu litter or crystal litter, as these types are not compatible with the self-cleaning mechanism. Ensure the litter level does not exceed the MAX fill line indicated inside the chamber.
4. Install Trash Bag: Open the waste container drawer located at the bottom of the unit. Line the waste container with one of the provided trash bags. Close the drawer securely.
5. Connect Power: Plug the power adapter into the designated port on the litter box, then plug the adapter into a wall outlet. The unit will perform an initial calibration cycle upon power-up.

5. Operating Instructions

The PetPivot Self Cleaning Cat Litter Box operates automatically, providing a clean litter bed for your cat. It is designed for cats weighing between 3 and 22 lbs.

5.1 Automatic Cleaning Cycle

After your cat exits the litter box, the integrated sensors will detect their departure. Following a brief delay (typically 5-7 minutes) to allow the litter to clump, the cleaning cycle will automatically initiate. The internal mechanism will sift the litter, separating solid waste and depositing it into the sealed waste container below. The litter bed will then return to its original position, ready for the next use.

5.2 Manual Cleaning

If you wish to initiate a cleaning cycle manually, locate the control buttons on the side of the unit. Press the designated button (refer to the Quick Start Guide for specific button functions) to start a cleaning cycle. Ensure no cat is inside the litter box before initiating a manual cycle.

5.3 Waste Disposal

The waste container has a capacity of 7 liters, allowing for up to 10 days of hands-free scooping for a single cat. When the waste container is full or as needed, simply pull out the drawer, remove the sealed trash bag, and dispose of it. Replace with a new trash bag before closing the drawer.

6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your PetPivot Self Cleaning Cat Litter Box.

• Litter Level Check: Periodically check the litter level and refill as needed to maintain the recommended depth.
• Waste Container Emptying: Empty the waste container regularly, typically once a week for one cat, or more frequently for multiple cats.
• Cleaning the Unit:
  • Unplug the unit before cleaning.
  • Wipe down the exterior and interior of the litter chamber with a damp cloth and mild, pet-safe detergent. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
