Troubleshooting
Lid does not close softly or slams shut.
Ensure the inner bucket is correctly seated and not obstructing the lid's path. Check if the lid mechanism has any debris or is misaligned. If the issue persists, the damper may be malfunctioning.
Pedal feels stiff or does not lift the lid fully.
Check for any obstructions around the pedal arm and the hinge mechanism. Ensure the inner bucket is not interfering with the pedal's operation. Clean any dust or grime from the moving parts.
Inner bucket is difficult to remove or reinsert.
Make sure the outer steel bin is on a level surface. Ensure there is no excess waste pressing against the sides of the inner bucket. Gently align the inner bucket with the outer casing before lowering it.
Exterior of the bin shows streaks or marks.
Use a soft, damp cloth with a mild detergent for cleaning. Always dry the surface thoroughly with a clean, soft cloth after washing to prevent water spots and streaks.
