AUTO SETUP BUTTON Use to Program CAT ACTIVATION OR to Pre Set • TIMES of day you want to clean • NUMBER of cleans per day.
ABOUT CAT ACTIVATION With Cat Activation, the CatGenie cleans 10 minutes after your cat does his business. If another cat needs to use the potty, the Unit resets and delays for another 10 minutes, etc. The Unit will not start if a cat is using it. The Genie Eyes watch for that. When set for CatActivation, the Cartridge switches from 120 doses of SaniSolution to 240 doses. Because CatGenie cleans and flushes the mess immediately, it needs less Solution per wash.
AUTO SETUP TIME EXAMPLES. If you want it to run once a day at 8:15am... program it at 8:15am 3 times a day at 6am, 2pm, 10pm... program at any of those times 4 times at 7am, 1pm, 7pm, 1am. Program at any of those 4 times MORE ABOUT AUTO START What’s the best time to run your CatGenie? Cats usually defecate within half an hour after eating a main meal. Cat experts tell us that cats sleep 15 to 20 hours a day (70% of their day). Keep a schedule of your cat’s behavior.
KEEP FILLED TO THIS LEVEL WASHABLE GRANULES never need changing. While the Washable Granules never need changing, they do need to be replenished. Just add Granules when the amount falls below the fill-level line, which is indicated by an indentation inside the Bowl. It is important to keep the Granules filled to that level. Always have an extra package of Washable Granules on hand. WARNING: NEVER, under any circumstances, use or mix cat litter with the Washable Granules in your CatGenie.
SETUPS. See Simple Setup Guide for Complete Directions. 2 1 1 5 4 3 2 3 4 5 LAUNDRY or UTILITY ROOM BATH or POWDER ROOM 1. Turn off the laundry’s cold-water supply valve. 2.

HOW TO GET INSIDE YOUR CATGENIE if you need to replace a part. To take apart your CatGenie, move the CatGenie away from the wall. Keep the DrainHose in the toilet or drainpipe.

TROUBLE SHOOTING. TIP: To avoid 90% of problems, set your CatGenie on Cat Activation. If you have a 1, 2, 3, or 4 Error, a Beep sounds the Error number. The Error LED lights and the number LED lights which Error. Both lit LEDs alternate blinks. Example: 2 beeps, #2 LED & Error LED lit, means you have an Error 2. You could also have a problem that is not indicated by an error LED or BEEP. SEE & LISTEN for WHICH ERROR. OBSERVE SYMPTOMS. Press START to Stop Beeps. ERROR 1. Hear Beeps, Error LED & LED 1 lit.
ERROR 3. Hear Beeps. Error LED & LED 3 lit. Cycle Complete. CatGenie is not draining. CAUTION: Before fixing, feel whether the Washable Granules are WET, DAMP or DRY. Follow A, if Granules are DRY • Follow B, if Granules are WET or DAMP A: GRANULES ARE DRY but not washed. CAUSE: Cycle ran without water because the Water Sensor is crusted with lime. It reads the lime deposit as if it was water. Simple Solution: Remove Processing Unit. Pull the Sensor ends up from the top of the Brim.
