Troubleshooting
Lid does not open fully or smoothly.
Check for any obstructions around the pedal mechanism or the lid hinges. Ensure the inner bins are correctly seated and not preventing the lid from opening.
Inner bin is difficult to remove or replace.
Ensure the bin bag is not caught on the rim of the inner bucket. Make sure there are no large or loose items jamming the bucket within the outer shell.
Odors persist even with the lid closed.
Ensure bin bags are tied securely before disposal. Regularly clean the inner buckets and the exterior of the bin to maintain hygiene. Consider using odor-absorbing liners or baking soda in the bottom of the outer bin.
