5. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your Nityers Automatic Pet Feeder, please refer to the following common solutions:
- Food Not Dispensing: Check for any food blockages in the dispenser rotor. The anti-jamming mechanisms are designed to prevent this, but large kibble or debris can sometimes cause issues. Ensure the food hopper is properly seated.
- Power Interruption: If the feeder loses main power, ensure the AA backup batteries are installed and functional. The feeder will automatically switch to battery power.
- Incorrect Portions: Verify your programmed portion settings on the LCD screen. Adjust as necessary.
- Feeder Malfunction: Do not cut or remove any internal tabs or modify internal components, as this may affect performance and void the warranty. If issues persist, contact customer support.
