How to Reboot or Reset the PetSafe® Smart Feed Automatic Pet Feeder

Some issues you may encounter with your PetSafe® Smart Feed Automatic Pet Feeder may require a reboot or a reset. If you have a flashing or solid white light on the feeder, it is recommended to first try a reboot. If your issue is not corrected, then try the reset.

A reboot tries to reconnect the feeder to your Wi-Fi while saving all the programmed meals and settings.

A reset is a factory reset that deletes all the programmed meals and settings. This will return the feeder to setup mode.
