Safety Information

Your cat's safety is paramount. The AstroPet litter tray is equipped with a multi-layer safety system to prevent accidents and ensure secure operation.

  • Rear Waste Bin Design: Eliminates the risk of your cat getting trapped or injured during operation.
  • Infrared Sensors: Located at the entrance, these sensors detect your cat's presence and pause cleaning cycles immediately.
  • Weight Sensors: Integrated into the base, these sensors provide additional protection by detecting your cat's weight and stopping the unit if a cat is inside during a cleaning cycle.

Maintenance
