After adding cat litter, the machine will display a blue light for about 5 minutes. This will be followed by a green light, indicating that the machine is automatically leveling the litter.

( Note : A low level of cat litter increases the likelihood of the drum sticking to the wall. Please replenish the cat litter promptly.)
