4.1 Cleaning the Drum
The litter box's intuitive design makes cleaning straightforward. The drum part is fully washable with water. Simply lift the drum from the base for quick and efficient cleaning. Ensure the drum is completely dry before reassembling.

4.2 Waste Bin Emptying
Regularly empty the waste bin located at the bottom of the unit. The frequency will depend on the number of cats and their usage. Use the provided waste bags for convenient disposal.
4.3 Liner Care
The litter box features a double-layer polymer fabric lining with polymer coating. This design ensures it is scratch-resistant, anti-stick, and prevents leakage. Only the surface of the fabric will get wet, and water will not enter the drum. This makes cleaning easier and maintains hygiene.
