FAQs
What type of batteries does the Tower Curved Sensor Bin require?
The bin requires 4x AA batteries for operation, which are not included with the product.
How do I clean the sensor bin?
For the exterior, wipe with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent. For the interior, remove the liner, wipe with disinfectant, and allow to dry completely. Keep the sensor window clean with a dry cloth.
What is the capacity of this sensor bin?
This Tower Curved Sensor Bin has a generous 50-liter capacity, suitable for most household waste needs.
Can I use any bin liner with this bin?
You can use standard 50L bin liners. The bin features a retainer ring designed to secure the liner, preventing it from slipping.
How does the touch-free sensor work?
The bin uses an infrared motion sensor that detects your hand within its range, automatically opening the lid for hygienic disposal. The lid then closes itself after a few seconds of inactivity.
What should I do if the lid gets stuck open or closed?
First, check and replace the batteries if they are low. Then, inspect the lid mechanism and sensor area for any physical obstructions or debris that might be interfering with its movement. Clean the sensor window if it appears dirty.
Troubleshooting
Lid does not open when hand is detected.
Check if the batteries are correctly installed and have sufficient power. Replace all 4x AA batteries if necessary. Ensure the sensor window on the lid is clean and free from obstructions.
Lid does not close automatically.
Verify there are no physical obstructions preventing the lid from closing. Clean the sensor window as debris can sometimes keep the sensor active. Check battery level and replace if low.
Bin liner slips down into the bin.
Ensure the bin liner is properly secured under the retainer ring located at the top rim of the bin. You may also need to try a slightly larger or stronger bin liner if the current one is too small or weak to stay in place.
Bin emits an unpleasant odor.
Empty the bin regularly, especially with perishable waste. Clean the interior of the bin thoroughly with a mild disinfectant and allow it to air dry completely. Consider using odor-absorbing products inside the bin if needed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial Setup
Unpack: Carefully remove the bin from its packaging.
Install Batteries: Locate the battery compartment, usually on the underside or back of the lid. Insert 4x AA batteries, ensuring correct polarity.
Insert Bin Liner: Place your chosen 50L bin liner into the bin. Secure the top edge of the liner under the bin liner retainer ring to prevent it from slipping.
Position: Place the bin in your desired location. Ensure nothing obstructs the sensor on the lid.
Compatibility
This bin is designed for household waste. While it can be used for recyclables, it is a single-compartment bin, so sorting would need to occur externally or with separate bins.
Compatible with standard 50L bin liners.
Care & Maintenance
Cleaning the Exterior: Wipe the exterior of the bin with a soft, damp cloth and a mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can damage the finish.
Cleaning the Interior: Periodically remove the bin liner and wipe down the interior with a damp cloth and mild disinfectant. Ensure it is completely dry before inserting a new liner.
Sensor Maintenance: Keep the sensor area on the lid clean and free of dust or debris for optimal performance. A dry, soft cloth is sufficient.
Battery Replacement: Replace batteries promptly when the sensor performance diminishes or the lid no longer opens/closes reliably. Always replace all 4 batteries at the same time for best results.
