ACCLIMATING YOUR CAT
If your cat needs to acclimate to the new LitterMaid® Advanced Automatic
Self-Cleaning litter box, follow these instructions:
• Place the LitterMaid® unit next to your old litter box.
• Set it to run automatically by turning the ON/OFF switch to ON.
Important: When the ON/OFF button is in the Off position it only disables the
rake function.
• Do not clean out the old litter box. (Cats prefer to use a clean box, and the
LitterMaid® litter box will always be clean.)
• If your cat is shy, do not operate the LitterMaid® litter box automatically
for 2 to 3 days. (Turn the ON/OFF switch to OFF)
• Manually activate the LitterMaid® litter box 2 to 3 times a day for the first
2 to 3 days, to let your cat get used to going into the LitterMaid® litter box
before you set it to clean automatically.
• As soon as your cat is acclimated to the LitterMaid® litter box, set it to clean
automatically. Turn ON/OFF switch to ON, and remove the old litter box.
Note: Do not place your LitterMaid® litter box in a wet environment or in
direct sunlight. Do not use outdoors or on patios.
Care and Cleaning
Sensor Covers
The two sensors located on the interior side panels are protected by sensor covers
that need to be kept dust free. After changing or adding litter, wipe each sensor
with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust.
Litter Tray
Use only premium clumping litter.
Lesser quality litters will impair performance.
To empty and clean litter tray:
• Check to make sure rake is in home position.
• Turn the switch to the OFF position.
Important: When the ON/OFF button is in the Off position it only disables the
rake function.
• Unplug unit and remove batteries to prevent accidental activation of the unit.
• Remove the waste receptacle.
• Remove the rake.
• Remove the top housing.
• Dispose of the used litter. To ensure proper disposal of litter, follow
manufacturer's instructions on litter package. Wipe the litter tray with a damp
cloth. If further cleaning is necessary, the litter tray can be fully immersed in
water and washed with a mild detergent.
Important: Do not soak or immerse the top housing in water. To clean, wipe
with damp cloth. Dry the unit completely before reassembling.
