calibrated for cats. Standing on your monitor or placing anything heavier
than 60 pounds on top of it may damage it.
1. Install the App
Before powering on your monitor, download the Petivity mobile app,
which will help guide you through the rest of the set up process.
Remember, you’ll need to use an iPhone running iOS 13 or higher to
complete installation.

phone. Have your home Wi-Fi password handy.

3. Choose a Power Source
You have two options for powering your monitor. Use either the power
cord or batteries provided, whichever is most convenient for the
location of your monitor. (If your cat is a cord-chewer, we recommend
using batteries.)
IF USING POWER CORD: Find the power jack on the bottom of your
monitor. Plug the power cord in and run the cord through one of the
provided channels.
IF USING BATTERIES: Find the battery cover on the bottom of your
monitor. Using a Phillips head screwdriver, remove the two screws
holding the cover in place. Insert batteries and replace cover.
If the blue light on the side of the monitor stops flashing before the
app prompts you to sync your monitor, simply press the power button
to re-initiate pairing mode.

4. Set Up Your Monitor and Profile in the App
Open the Petivity app and follow the set up instructions to complete
your monitor set up and create an account for your cat, or cats.
After your monitor connects to Wi-Fi for the first time, it will automatically
check for a software update. If there is an update available, you will see
a green blinking light as your unit downloads the update. This may take
2-3 minutes, please keep the monitor powered on during the upgrade.
After the monitor upgrades you will see a blue flashing LED. At this point,
your monitor is updated and ready for use.
MONITOR MAINTENANCE
Once your monitor is set up, there’s some simple maintenance that can help
it continue to accurately gather data and learn about your cat. Check for the
following about every other week, or whenever you’re changing the litter:
• If using the power cord, make sure there are no signs that it’s
being chewed by your cat or other pets. If you find any evidence
of chewing, switch to battery power.
• To clean your smart monitor, vacuum excess litter around the
base and between the litterbox and monitor. Wipe down with
a moist cloth. Spray the cloth rather than the monitor with any
cleaning products.
• Be sure your monitor and litterbox have a 1-inch clearance
on all sides and are not touching walls, baseboards, furniture or
other objects.
SUPPORT & TROUBLESHOOTING

• If you’re having trouble connecting to Wi-Fi, try using the 2.4 gHz
band on your router. (This should be an option on most home
networks.)

monitor with the app, simply press the button on the side of the
monitor to re-initiate pairing mode.

monitor’s feet are flush with the floor and are extended as far
as possible while keeping the monitor level.

the bottom of your monitor and that all four feet are on the mat.

Power Cord
• In addition to 6 AA batteries, the monitor can also be powered
with the enclosed power cord. Please note that any use of a power
cord carries risks such as cats or other animals chewing cables
or equipment, electrical shock, and tripping hazards. If you’re
using the power cord to power the monitor, check for any evidence
that your cat or other pets have been chewing on the cord. If you
see any evidence of chewing, we recommend switching to
battery power.

prevent tripping.

Restrictions

60 pounds. Do not stand on the monitor or allow a weight
of greater than 60 pounds to rest on top of the monitor.
• Do not attempt to weigh your cat by placing it directly on the
monitor. Weight will be accurately calculated when monitor is
correctly set up under the litterbox.
Monitor Placement
• The monitor works best in an indoor, climate-controlled
environment. Do not use the monitor outdoors or in areas with
high humidity, high heat, or direct sunlight. Where possible, avoid
placing the unit on a surface that receives continuous sunlight.
• When placing the monitor in your home, ensure it is at least 1 inch
away from all walls or other obstacles. Failure to provide adequate
clearance may cause interference with data or readings. Placing
