FAQs
What type of batteries does the bin use?
The Toque Smart Rubbish Bin typically requires standard AA or AAA alkaline batteries (please refer to the physical battery compartment for exact sizing).
Can I use standard trash bags with this bin?
Yes, standard small liners will work well. The integrated bag ring is designed to accommodate most common small bin liners.
Is the bin waterproof?
The bin is splash-resistant, but it should not be placed directly in the shower or submerged in water, as the electronic components are housed in the lid.
How do I manually keep the lid open?
Depending on the model's interface, there is usually a button or a specific sensor gesture that engages the 'keep-open' mode until you manually close it.
What are the exact dimensions?
This model is specifically designed as a slim 9L unit; check your target space dimensions against the specific MPN (KT1073-WH-9L-UK) if you have very specific clearance requirements.
Troubleshooting
The lid does not open when I wave my hand.
Check that the batteries are installed correctly and are not depleted. Ensure the sensor area is free of dust or debris.
The lid is closing too quickly.
Ensure you are not standing too close to the sensor after discarding trash, as this can confuse the proximity timer.
The bag ring is difficult to secure.
Ensure the trash bag is taut around the inner rim before pushing the ring down into its seated position.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation: Insert the required batteries into the compartment located under the lid.
Liners: Place a standard small bin liner inside the bucket and fold the edges over the integrated bag ring to ensure a tight, secure fit before inserting it back into the main housing.
Placement: Ensure the bin is placed at least 20cm away from wall obstructions to prevent false sensor triggers.
Cleaning: Wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid submerging the lid mechanism in water, as this contains the electronic sensors.
