ScoopFree Overview • This ScoopFree Self-Cleaning Litter Box includes your first litter tray, which is filled with premium crystal litter. • The crystal litter absorbs urine and dries out solid waste, resulting in unbeatable odor control. • ScoopFree automatically rakes solid waste into a covered waste trap after each use, leaving the litter clean and fresh. • There is nothing to fill, empty or clean for weeks at a time.
Product Setup Litter Box Frame Waste Trap Lid Litter Tray with Cover Underneath Litter Tray • ScoopFree is packaged for protection during shipping. Please remove all packaging material carefully. • Packaging material is not a toy. Keep away from children and pets. • The power cord is shipped inside a small white box. Do not discard packaging until you complete product setup. • Find a clean, dry, and level location for your ScoopFree litter box.
Litter Tray Installation Step 1: Place cover of litter tray under litter tray. The cover is extra protection against leaks and will be used later for disposal. Step 2: Record Today’s Date of litter tray installation and Tray Change Date on the waste trap label. • Recommended Disposable Litter Tray Replacement: o At least every 20−30 days for 1 cat 10−15 days for 2 cats 7−10 days for 3 cats Step 3: Grab waste trap lid to lift litter box until it is standing on its end.
Privacy Hood • In addition to making ScoopFree look better, a removable Privacy Hood adds more comfort and privacy for your cat along with better litter containment and odor control for you. • This feature does not come with ScoopFree Original. • The Privacy Hood is included with ScoopFree Ultra, and may be purchased separately for use with ScoopFree Original from leading retailers or www.ScoopFree.com. TO INSTALL THE HOOD: • Remove plugs, if installed, to reveal holes on top of litter box.
Adjustable Rake Delay • ScoopFree Ultra comes with an Adjustable Rake Delay. • This feature does not apply to ScoopFree Original. • With Adjustable Rake Delay you get to choose how quickly you want the automatic rake to sweep waste into the covered compartment. The default is a 20-minute delay, but the control is yours. If you are concerned about minimizing the odor of fresh waste, speed up the cycle.
Health Counter • ScoopFree Ultra also comes with a Health Counter. • This feature does not apply to ScoopFree Original. • Think of this as an odometer to keep track of your cat's litter box activity. First, it helps you better understand when the tray needs to be changed. And second, it can help monitor your cat's health. If your cat deviates from how frequently he or she normally uses ScoopFree, that irregularity might be a sign of a problem.
Maximizing Litter Tray Life 1. ScoopFree works best if placed away from areas of high humidity such as bathrooms and showers. 2. Cats with diets high in crude fiber and ash content will produce more solid waste. This may prematurely fill the waste trap. To maximize litter tray life, consider changing the cat’s diet to a brand with no byproducts or fillers. 3. Increased elimination habits of older cats and cats with diabetes, kidney and thyroid problems may result in a shorter tray life. 4.
Indicator Light The indicator light is located on top of the litter box. It tells you the status of the litter box and can help you diagnose potential problems. Indicator Light Status Steady Green Litter box has power and rake is in the home position. Flashing Slowly Cat has left litter box and countdown timer or automatic raking is in process. Flashing Medium Optical sensors are triggered. Flashing Quickly There can be many reasons for rapid flashing of the Indicator Light.
Changing the Litter Tray Do not add litter or remove waste during normal operation. The litter will remain clean for weeks at a time. We recommend replacing the litter tray at least once every 20 to 30 days for one cat, 10 to 15 days for two cats and 7 to 10 days for three cats.* Step 1: Jiggle the litter box to reduce litter that may have accumulated behind the rake. This will reduce or prevent litter spillage that may occur when lifting the litter box.
Care and Cleaning ScoopFree seldom needs cleaning because of its revolutionary design; surfaces most likely to get soiled are discarded with each litter tray. Nevertheless, you may occasionally choose to clean ScoopFree as follows: • • • • • • • Remove power cord from litter box. Remove waste trap lid by tilting it outwards until it falls out of its slots. Wipe all surfaces with mild soap and water. Wipe rake with sponge or soft brush. Make sure optical sensors are not blocked.
Troubleshooting (continued) Issue Remedy Indicator light is flashing rapidly, and Check for any obstructions behind the rake. If so, remove obstruction. Rake is stopped several inches away from the home position Press the Cycle Button. The rake will return to the home position and the indicator light will glow steady green. Indicator light is flashing medium, and Check to see if the sensors are obstructed.
