4. With the green light on ("OK/Waiting"), gently press
down on the step with your hand until you sense a
slight displacement or tilt, then release (see figures
below). The red light should come on. The applied
force represents your cat stepping on the Drawer. If
the effort required to trip the Cat Sensor is
considerable, or you have noticed the sensor is not
activating when your cat enters the Litter-Robot,
then the cat sensor is not sensitive enough and
needs to be adjusted. Skip Step 5 and go to the
section that explains how to make these
adjustments.

5. Now push any of the three buttons on the Control
Panel to reset the unit. If the green light comes
back on ("OK/Waiting"), the Cat Sensor is working
properly and you have successfully completed the
Sensor Test.
If the red light is still on ("Sensor/Timing"), the Cat
Sensor is too sensitive and needs to be adjusted.
The following section shows how to do this.

Adjusting the Cat Sensor Sensitivity

Note: The cat sensor is set at the factory for
optimal performance for most cats. Adjustment
should not normally be necessary.
1. Make sure that the Globe contains the desired
amount of litter before adjusting the sensor
sensitivity. The maximum litter level should not
substantially exceed the Fill Line in the liner.
2. Remove the Globe for easier access to the Cat
Sensor Switch. It may also help to remove the
waste drawer from the Base unit.
3. Slightly lift the Base unit and locate the Rotatable
Foot at the front and center of the Base (see figure).
