Product Information
3.1 What is the FunPaw Feeder?
The FunPaw Feeder is a smart device that provides options to check on and feed your pet from anywhere in the world. After
connecting to the app, you can set a feeding schedule according to your pet’s needs and use the built-in camera to check on your
pet. Scheduled feeding times deter overeating and help establish healthy eating habits.
At the scheduled time, the feeder will automatically dispense anywhere from 10g to 100g of dry food into the tray; the tray can hold
up to 250g of food at a time. The feeder draws from the hopper, which stores about 6 liters (13 lbs.) of dry food at one time. The
feeder also includes built-in parts such as a speaker, mic, and camera. Through the app, the feeder can be used to listen to, speak
to, and see your pet.
3.2 Power Source Information
The feeder may be powdered via adapter and/or 8x AA batteries which will be stored inside the back of the unit. As the batteries
may only last up to 3 hours, it is recommended to use the adapter as a main power source and add batteries as a temporary backup
option in case of a power failure in your home.
Section 4
Setting Up the Feeder
Before the feeder can be used, it must be set up.
It is recommended to use the adapter as, on battery power, the feeder will only operate for about 3 hours.

FAQ & Troubleshooting
7.1 Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How much food can the feeder hold?
A: About 6 liters (13 lbs) of dry food.
Q: How much does the feeder dispense?
A:Between10gto100g.Theamountandnumberofportionscanbesetaccordingtotheapp.1“cup”means1servingfor

respectively.
Q: Why did the feeder suddenly get louder?
A (1): As the feeder prepares to dispense, the parts will move. If your dog exhibits anxious behaviour such as barking at or
avoiding the feeder, they may be afraid due to the noise. To combat this, introduce the feeder to your pet slowly with the use of
food and/or training.
A(2):Ifthefeedercontinuestomakedispensingnoise,somethingmayhavegottenstuck.Turno󰀨thefeeder,andcheckthe

Funpaw Feeder 17
Q: What kind of animals can use the feeder?
A: Small to medium cats and dogs whose daily intake falls between 10g to 100g. The feeder is not recommended for use with
large dogs and some medium dogs as the feeder can only dispense a maximum of 100g of food at a time, which may not be
enough.
Q: How many animals can use the feeder?
A: There is no limit on the number of animals that can use the feeder at the same time. However, for convenience and in the
interest of your pets’ health, it is recommended 1) to carefully monitor your pets’ intake to be sure each is still eating properly
and 2) not to mix foods.
