Care and Cleaning
The Feeder-Robot can be easily disassembled for cleaning. Use
mild soap and hand-wash both removable and non-removable
parts.
Removable Parts Non-Removable Parts
● Bowl
● Hopper
● Hopper Lid
● Hopper Insert
● Rocker & Rocker Flap
● Food Chute
● Bowl Holder
● Indicator Tower
Rinse or wipe clean and let parts air dry completely before
reassembling the Feeder-Robot.
DO NOT immerse the Control Panel or Base in water, as this may
damage electronic components.
We recommend that you clean the Feeder-Robot before its first
use, and at least once a month after that. The best time to clean
is when the Hopper and Bowl are already empty.
To Clean the Feeder-Robot:
1. Unplug the unit. If using the app, you may wish to pause any
upcoming meals while the feeder is disassembled.
2. Remove the Bowl from the Bowl Holder and discard any
remaining food in the Bowl.
3. If there is any food in the Hopper or Hopper Insert, pour it into
a container or bag for temporary storage. Ensure that there
are no pieces of kibble trapped in the Chute, Rocker, or
beneath the Hopper.
Ongoing Maintenance
Fill the Hopper when indicated by the app and/or the flashing red
status light at the top of the Indicator Tower.
How often you need to fill the Hopper depends on the feeding
schedule of your pet. For an average-sized cat eating 1/2 cup of
food per day, kibble will typically need to be replaced once every
7-8 weeks. A small- to medium-sized dog may need kibble replaced
every 2-4 weeks.
4. Remove the Hopper Lid by squeezing the handles toward one
another. Lift the Hopper Insert out of the Hopper if using.
5. Remove the Rocker by first removing the Hopper. Then simply
slide the Rocker away from the unit. The rubber Rocker Flap
can also be removed from the Rocker for cleaning.
6. You may hand-wash with mild soap these removable parts:
the Hopper Lid, Hopper Insert, Hopper, Rocker, and Bowl(s).
7. Wipe down non-removable parts that touch pet food with
mild soap: the Chute, the Bowl Holder, and the Indicator
Tower. You may wish to use a small cleaning brush or
toothbrush to clean food debris and residue from the Chute.
Test a small area as some brushes could scratch plastic parts.
8. Rinse and let all parts air dry completely before reassembling
the Feeder-Robot. Reinstall the Rocker, Hopper, and the
Hopper Insert if using.
9. Plug the Feeder-Robot back in and press the Power button.
10. Add and level out food, then replace the Hopper Lid.
