batteries (not included) and replace cover. Place the bin liner in the center of the bin
and fold the top of the bag over the edge of the bin. Replace the lid cover. Turn on the
power switch at the back of the bin. The red indicator light with be lit for 3 seconds
and then flashes once every 4 seconds to show that it is working and ready for use.
The batteries can last 3-6 months based on the bin lid opening and closing 20 times
a day. High alkaline batteries can last up to 2 years on standby only.
If the bin fails to operate normally, it may mean the batteries are running low, or
need replacing. Please avoid mixing brands, or old batteries. To prolong the use of
batteries, and life of the motor, avoid staying in sensing mode for an unduly long time.

automatically within 0.5 of a second. Once your hand is removed from the sensor
area, it will close automatically within 5-6 seconds. Keeping your hand within the
