Operating Instructions
1. Automatic Cleaning Cycle
The litter box is equipped with sensors that detect when your cat has used the box and exited. Approximately one minute after your cat leaves, the automatic cleaning cycle will begin. This delay ensures your cat has safely exited before the drum rotates.
2. Manual and Scheduled Cleaning
- One-Touch Cleaning: Press the designated button on the control panel or within the app to initiate an immediate cleaning cycle.
- Scheduled Cleaning: Use the app to set custom cleaning schedules based on your preferences and your cat's habits.
3. Smart Health Monitoring (via App)
The app provides valuable insights into your cat's health and litter box usage:
- Cat Weight: Monitors and records your cat's weight with each visit.
- Visit Records: Tracks the number of toilet visits, visit times, and the duration of each visit.
- Pattern Tracking: Allows you to observe trends and patterns in your cat's litter box usage over time, which can be an indicator of health changes.

4. Safety Features
- Anti-Pinch Protection: If a cat or object is detected during a cleaning cycle, the unit will immediately stop operation to prevent injury.
- Gravity Sensor Monitoring: The litter box continuously monitors for presence. If your cat touches the unit during operation, it stops immediately and resumes only after the cat leaves.

5. Quiet Operation
The Cegimus litter box operates at a low noise level, typically below 32dB, comparable to a quiet refrigerator hum. This ensures a peaceful environment for both you and your cat, even during cleaning cycles.

Maintenance
1. Emptying the Waste Bin
- The waste bin is designed for large capacity, typically requiring emptying every few days for a single cat.
- To empty, simply pull out the waste drawer from the base of the unit.
- If using waste bags (a starter roll is included), tie off the bag and dispose of it. Replace with a new bag. The waste bin can also be used without bags.
- Slide the waste drawer back into place until it clicks securely.
