trapped in the filter, making the air you breathe cleaner and healthier.

Problem

Solution
---|---
1. The trash can is brand new, and only works occasionally| Peel off
the thin, transparent protector/sticker on top of the sensor eye.
If the lid still doesn’t work regularly, try a new set of batteries. Then follow the Care & Maintenance steps.
2. The lid stays open or lid opens and closes continuously| The sensor eye may be affected by dirt, stain, dust, moisture or reflection.
Move the trash can to a different location or turn the trash can slightly so that the sensor faces another direction, and follow the Care & Maintenance steps.
3. Grinding noise when the lid opens/closes| This can be caused by broken gears or lid hinge.
• Check for damage on the hinges that connect to the lid
• Follow the Care & Maintenance steps
• Contact us at 1-844-660-7978 for warranty service
4. The lid does not open/close
Important: Do not use batteries and the AC power adapter at the same time. It can only be powered by one source at a time.
| If you are using Batteries:
• Ensure batteries are inserted correctly and close the battery cover firmly
• Turn power switch to “ON” position to see if the indication light is visible
If you are using AC Power Adapter:
• Unplug the adapter and insert new alkaline batteries to see if the lid works on battery
• If the lid works with batteries, the AC adapter may be broken
5. I wave my hand over the sensor eye, but the lid does not open| It is
not a motion sensor. Hold your hand or object steadily (do not wave your hand)
within 4-6 inches over sensor eye for it to detect and open.
6. Why is the indicator light flashing in yellow/amber color?| The
battery power is low. Replace all batteries with a new set of alkaline
batteries. Do not use rechargeable batteries or old batteries.
If your trash can is still not working after trying these troubleshooting steps, please contact us through www.itouchless.com/contacts/ for warranty service.
