It depends on your cat’s behavior and your personal preference. We recommend deep cleaning every 2 to 6 weeks. Click here for a video guide to quickly disassemble for deep cleaning.

Paw-ssible Troubleshooting

Follow along with this short video tutorial: 

The AutoEgg uses a capacitative sensor as a part of the screen. This means that the screen responds to touch rather than magnetic fields or film overlays, like other touch screens. It's always best to utilize a "long press" style touch when interacting with our touchscreen menus.

If the screen is not responding to a longer press, there may be some litter stuck in the display panel. Use a needle, thin strip of plastic, or a thin toothpick to remove the litter from the perimeter of the screen. Then, gently press down on all four corners of the screen at the same time until the touchscreen functionality returns.

There are a few reasons, follow these steps to troubleshoot:

• Check your cat’s weight. The automatic cleaning after each waste deposited only works for cats above 2 kg (4.4 lb.). *If you have a kitten that weighs less than 4.4 lbs, power on your AutoEgg, then place any object above 4.4 lbs for 15 seconds to activate the four-time automatic cleaning throughout the day.
• Make sure the AutoEgg is placed on a hard and flat surface, is not touching a wall or other objects, and is a safe distance from air vents or high-power appliances.
Unplug and re-plug the power cord to reset the weight sensors whenever after you touch the AutoEgg (add litter, move the AutoEgg, or enclose the hood, etc).
• Check the two metal clickers inside the touchscreen side rail to make sure they are clickable. Unsure where they are? Check out this short video.
• Check that the cleaning mode is set to “Automatic” and not “Manual” in the settings menu.
• Press the “Sensor” button in the settings menu to reset the weight sensors.

Follow along with this short video tutorial:

• Make sure to set the AutoEgg setting to "Auto Mode" using the touchscreen.
• Prepare two items: one to simulate a cat weighing 4.4 lb (2 kg) or more, and one to simulate waste (you can use the scooper).
• Unplug and re-plug the power cord to restart the AutoEgg.

• Place both items inside with the heavier first and the lighter second.
• Wait 15 seconds, and then remove the cat weight.
• Wait an additional 10 to 15 seconds. The touchscreen should display the weight log.
• Wait 5 minutes, and the automatic cleaning should run all on its own!

No. That is a normal, usually unobtrusive light that indicates that the AutoEgg is receiving power to its internal components. We've included this as a way to check for power in the event the touch screen is not functioning properly.

To ensure safety, the AutoEgg comes with the Cat-Stuck-Prevention function. If your cat enters before the cleaning rake moves back to the starting position, it will stop instantly and resume in five minutes.

Your cat may enter the AutoEgg and use the bathroom behind the rake during this period.
