3. Anti-Pinch Safety Feature

The door is equipped with an anti-pinch safety mechanism. If the door encounters an obstruction (e.g., a chicken) during closing, it will gently reverse its movement. If blocked multiple times, an alarm will trigger, and an app notification will be sent.

Maintenance

Ensure the solar panel is free from obstructions (e.g., snow, debris) to maintain optimal charging efficiency. If using direct plug-in, ensure the connection is secure and protected from moisture.

3. Weather Resistance

The door is designed for year-round outdoor use in temperatures ranging from -15°C to 60°C (5°F to 140°F). While weatherproof, extreme conditions may affect performance. Ensure the solar panel is clear of snow in winter for continuous charging.
