2. Llenado de los compartimentos de alimentos
Each compartment of the feeder can hold up to 1.5 cups of dry or semi-moist pet food. To fill, open the feeder lids. Place the desired amount of food into each of the two removable trays. Ensure the food is level to prevent obstruction of the lid mechanism.

3. Setting Meal Times
The feeder features two independent dial timers, one for each compartment. To set a meal time, rotate the dial to the desired number of hours from the current moment. The dials allow scheduling in 0.5-hour increments, up to 24 hours in advance. For example, if you set a dial to '5', the corresponding compartment will open approximately 5 hours from the time of setting. Ensure the lids are closed properly before setting the timers.

Operación
Dispensador automático
Once the timers are set, the feeder will automatically count down. When a timer reaches zero, the corresponding lid will open, providing access to the meal. This allows for consistent feeding schedules.

Tamper-Resistant Design
The lids are designed to be tamper-resistant, helping to prevent pets from accessing food before the scheduled meal time. While designed for security, highly motivated or clever pets may still attempt to open the lids.
Mantenimiento
Limpieza
The removable BPA-free food tray is dishwasher safe and can be placed on the top rack for easy cleaning. Regular cleaning is recommended to maintain hygiene.
Reemplazo de batería
Replace the AA alkaline battery as needed. The battery life can vary, but typically lasts for several months. A ticking sound from the timers indicates they are functioning.
Solución de problemas
- Timer Inaccuracy: Some users have reported slight inaccuracies with the timers. It is advisable to monitor the feeder during its initial uses to ensure it opens at the desired times.
- Acceso para mascotas: While designed to be tamper-resistant, very clever or food-driven pets might attempt to manipulate the dials or lids. Ensure the feeder is placed in a stable location where it cannot be easily moved or overturned.
- Comida pegada: When using semi-moist food, ensure it is spread evenly and does not create obstructions around the lid's edges to allow for smooth opening.
