Deep cleaning the Litter-Robot is an important part of ensuring your unit is running properly, and it is also a great way to increase the lifespan of your unit!

The Globe:

We recommend cleaning the globe with a mild soap such as dishwashing detergent. Do not use bleach products on the unit (any part). Bleach is very corrosive to metal and plastics. A safe alternative would be vinegar and water.

There are no electronics in the globe, so you can soak it in a tub or hose it down. We like to use a soft toilet brush to easily access the inside of the globe. Avoid scrubbing hard at any particular location. If something is tough to clean off, it's best to soak it with a rag or in a tub. Confirm the globe is completely dry before adding litter. If it is not dry, the litter will clump prematurely and may get clogged in the ports or litter pocket.

The Base:

Wipe the base down without getting any of the electronic components wet. You can use a small hand vacuum to clean out parts of the base. Otherwise, a damp cloth should help. If your unit is a Classic or Bubble, you may notice the plastic can become discolored. Common car cleaners and plastic restorers are safe to use to restore the finish.

The Bonnet (Litter-Robot 3 only):

Do not get the bonnet wet at any point. You can wipe down the top of the bonnet with a damp cloth if it is dirty.

To Keep Odor Down:

Try to use completely new, fresh litter in the unit every so often. Litter can absorb excess odor. We have also been told that dryer sheets below the drawer liner help keep odor down. Try to avoid scented litter, as it does not absorb as much odor. Other users have mixed baking soda in with their litter and/or liners.

You might also want to change the carbon filter every 3-6 months. The carbon filter is designed to contain odor within the drawer. Replacement carbon filters may be ordered on our website. Seal strips should be changed as needed. Parts that start to fall off should be cut off and removed. The remainder can be left on. Neither the carbon filter or seal strip are required for use of the machine.
