6. Maintenance
Regular cleaning and maintenance will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your trash can.
- Exterior Cleaning: Wipe the stainless steel exterior with a soft, damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the fingerprint-proof coating. Dry thoroughly with a clean cloth.
- Inner Bucket Cleaning: Periodically remove the inner buckets and wash them with warm water and dish soap. Rinse thoroughly and allow them to dry completely before placing them back into the unit.
- Sensor Area: Keep the sensor area on the lid clean and free of dust or debris to ensure proper operation.
- Battery Replacement: When the sensor operation becomes slow or inconsistent, it is time to replace the 4 AA batteries. Always replace all batteries at the same time with new ones.
7. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
