Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin using your 60L Automatic Trash Can, install four C-cell batteries into the designated compartment under the lid. Place the trash bag inside, ensuring it is secured properly so it does not interfere with the sensor mechanism. For routine maintenance, wipe the stainless steel exterior with a soft, damp cloth and a mild non-abrasive cleaner to preserve the fingerprint-proof coating. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive sponges, which can scratch the finish. Ensure the sensor area remains free of dust and debris to maintain consistent operation. If the unit is used in a bathroom or kitchen, wipe away any moisture that accumulates near the battery compartment to prevent corrosion.
