FAQs

What type of batteries does the sensor require?

The Tower 50L Rectangular Sensor Bin requires 4 x AA batteries to power its automatic sensor function.

What is the capacity of this bin?

How do I clean the bin?

The bin features an easy-to-clean durable PP body. Simply wipe it down with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners to protect the finish.

Can I operate the bin manually?

Yes, the bin has a power switch button that allows you to operate the lid manually without the need for batteries or sensor activation.

What are the dimensions of the bin?

The dimensions of the bin are H:63.0 x W:38.0 x D:26.0 cm.

What is the warranty period for this product?

The Tower 50L Rectangular Sensor Bin comes with a 3-year guarantee from the manufacturer.

How does the motion sensor work?

The in-built lid motion sensor uses infrared technology to detect hand movement above the lid, triggering it to open automatically for hygienic waste disposal.

Troubleshooting

Sensor does not respond or lid does not open automatically.

Ensure 4 x AA batteries are correctly inserted and charged. Verify that the power switch button is in the 'ON' position. Make sure there are no obstructions blocking the infrared sensor area on the lid.

Lid is not closing softly or making noise.

Check for any physical obstructions or debris around the lid mechanism or within the bin opening that might be preventing it from closing fully. Ensure the bin is placed on a stable, level surface.

Bin unexpectedly opens frequently without deliberate action.

Review the bin's placement. The sensor might be picking up movement from passers-by or objects if placed in a high-traffic area. Try relocating the bin to a quieter spot in your kitchen. Ensure there is adequate space above the sensor.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

  1. Unpack: Carefully remove the bin from its packaging.
  2. Insert Batteries: Locate the battery compartment, typically under the lid or at the back. Insert 4 x AA batteries, ensuring correct polarity.
  3. Position: Place the bin in your desired kitchen location. Ensure there's clear space above the sensor for optimal detection of hand movements.
  4. Activate Sensor: Turn the power switch button to the 'ON' position to enable the automatic sensor function.

Compatibility

  • Capacity: The 50-litre capacity is designed for general household kitchen waste, suitable for families.
  • Placement: Its rectangular shape and dimensions (H:63.0 x W:38.0 x D:26.0 cm) make it suitable for placement against walls or in corners within kitchen spaces.

Care

  • Cleaning the Body: The durable PP body is easy to clean. Use a damp cloth to wipe down the exterior and interior surfaces regularly. For stubborn marks, a mild household cleaner can be used, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
  • Sensor Maintenance: Keep the infrared sensor area on the lid clean and free from dust or debris to ensure consistent and accurate operation.
  • Lid Mechanism: Occasionally check for any food particles or obstructions that might accumulate around the lid's hinge or soft-closing mechanism, which could impede its smooth operation. Do not use abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals as they may damage the finish.
