HOW THE LITTERMAID

®

SELF-CLEANING LITTER BOX

WORKS

• Cat enters the unit; once he/she leaves, the sensors are triggered, setting the
timer for the cleaning cycle. (Sensors need to be blocked for at least
5 seconds.)

Important: Unit will not start a cleaning cycle while cat is in the box.

• After 10 minutes, the cleaning cycle starts and the rake scoops out waste
clumps.

• If the cat re-enters and leaves the litter box before the initial 10 minutes have
elapsed, the rake will stop, the timer will automatically reset and delay the
beginning of the cleaning cycle for an additional 10 minutes.

Note: Rake will stop and reverse if the safety bar touches any object that has
gotten behind the rake while it is returning to its home position.

• Rake opens waste receptacle compartment cover and deposits clumps into the
waste receptacle.

• Sealed disposable waste receptacle allows for safe and easy disposal of waste
when full.
