More Information

Litter Box ButtonsLitter Box Buttons

Here’s how it works:

  • Sensors inside the litter box recognize when your cat is present.
  • When your cat leaves the litter box, the rake button blinks blue and the rake timer starts a 20-minute countdown. (You can change the length of this countdown in the app.)
  • When the countdown is complete, the rake moves any solid waste into the waste trap. (The crystal litter will absorb any liquid waste.)
  • If your cat returns to the litter box during the countdown, the rake timer stops. The rake timer resets when your cat leaves the litter box again.
  • Each time the rake activates, the health counter increases by one.
  • To reset the health counter (recommended when you change the litter tray), press and hold the health counter reset button.
  • To activate the rake manually at any time, press the rake button. To pause the rake while it is in motion, press the rake button again.

Wi-Fi and Rake Button Lights

Lights on the Wi-Fi and rake buttons change color to indicate litter box status.
