1. Ensure Proper Power Supply
Start by ensuring that the feeder is powered by the original power cord and adapter. If possible, try using a different 5V 2A power adapter and power cord to eliminate potential power issues. A secure connection is essential for the feeder to function properly.
2. Clean the Lid and Sealing Ring
Dirt or residue on the lid or sealing ring can disrupt the air-pumping process. Wipe the lid with a cloth to remove any dust or debris. Additionally, make sure the silicone sealing ring on the lid is clean, as any buildup could affect the feeder's performance.
3. Reinstall the Top Lid
Check that the lid is properly aligned and correctly installed. Once placed back, gently press or tap down on the lid to ensure it fits securely, ensuring the air pumping system works correctly.
4. Inspect the Food Tank and Outlet Door
Remove the food tank and inspect the silicone sealing ring. Ensure it's installed properly. Also, check the food outlet door on the feeder base for any blockages, such as food crumbs, which could obstruct airflow and cause air pumping failure.
5. Reinstall the Food Tank and Test the Air Pumping
After making sure everything is properly aligned, reinstall the food tank and short-press the Air Pumping button. Wait for the air-pumping process to start. This step helps ensure that the system is functioning as expected.
