Congratulations on the purchase of your new feeder!
The Microchip Pet Feeder has been designed to recognise either the microchip already
implanted in your pet or the Sure Petcare RFID Collar Tag (one included – packs of
two sold separately), allowing your pet to access their food whilst keeping out other
animals. Designed for use in multi-pet homes, the feeder will recognise authorised
pets opening only for them. If an unauthorised greedy or bully pet tries to eat from the
bowl it will not open, or if the feeder is already open the lid will close. The SureFeed
bowls have an integrated seal on the top lip. This has been designed so that once the
lid of the feeder is closed a seal is formed with the top of the bowl, keeping your pet’s
food fresher for longer.
Setting up the feeder to work in your home is a simple step by step process detailed in
this user manual. We will guide you through from inserting the batteries to teaching
your pet to use the feeder. When an authorised pet places their head inside the hoop
on the front of the feeder their microchip or collar tag will be read. The lid only opens
for pets (up to 32) who have been granted access.

When a pet places its head into the hoop on the front
of the feeder, the microchip reader is activated.
Normal operation
Once set up (see pages 8-10 for setup and training) the SureFeed Microchip Pet Feeder will
stop greedy or bully pets from accessing food that is not theirs, giving you control over your
pets’ prescription diets, medication and weight management. It is common that pets like to
eat small amounts of food throughout the day. The SureFeed bowls with integrated seal have
been designed to accommodate this regular use keeping food fresher throughout the day and
reducing wastage.

The feeder lid will remain closed at all times until
it is opened for food replacement - see page 5 -
or an authorised pet approaches to eat.
If the pet is authorised and allowed to eat, the lid
will slide open for them.
If an unauthorised greedy pet tries to eat from the feeder
when the lid is closed then the lid will simply not open.
Once your pet has eaten and moved away from
the feeder the lid will close aer a short delay
(see page 14 to adjust the lid delay). This once
again seals the bowl keeping the food fresher.

Press the open/close button
( ) to open the feeder.
Fill a clean bowl with food.
Ensure that you do not overfill
the bowl as this may prevent the
lid from closing fully and cause
a mess.
Clean the bowl or replace
with a fresh bowl.
Remove the dirty bowl
for cleaning.
Place the filled bowl into the
feeder and press the open/close
( ) button to close the lid and
seal the food. The feeder can now
be used as normal.
Before placing the bowl back into
the feeder, ensure that all the
surfaces on the feeder are wiped
clean and there is no food debris
under the bowl. This allows the lid
to move freely and seal correctly
onto the bowl.
Replacing the food (open/close lid)
It is important to change your pet’s food on a daily basis, not only to ensure your pet stays
happy and healthy, but also to keep the feeder clean and in working order.

If you have multiple feeders or if you just want to
customise your feeder, you can purchase coloured
bowls and mats separately.
Suitable for a single portion of
wet or dry food.
The split bowl is designed for wet
and dry food used at the same time.
The silicone mat is placed on the front of the
feeder (see page 3 for mat location) and is
designed to collect food mess making it easy
to clean daily.
Bowls & mats
To purchase additional bowls and mats ask a Sure Petcare stockist or visit:
surepetcare.com
Available in blue, green, pink and grey.
Please remove the bowl and mat from
the feeder when cleaning. To keep the
integrated seal in optimal condition we
recommend hand washing only.
The bowls and mat supplied have been specifically designed to work with SureFeed products.
The SureFeed bowls have an integrated seal on their top lip. Once the lid of the feeder is
closed, flies can’t get in and food stays fresher. The silicone mat helps control mess and can
be removed daily for easy cleaning.
Add some colour!
Please ensure bowls and mats are washed before their first use.

Batteries
First remove the mat, then turn the
feeder upside down to access the
battery compartments.
Insert the batteries. Ensure the +/-
symbols on the batteries match the
symbols on the feeder itself.
Remove the battery covers.
Replace the battery covers.

Always use 4 good quality 1.5V alkaline C Cell batteries. This will ensure the best performance
of your feeder. This product is not designed for use with rechargeable batteries. The light at
the back of the feeder will flash red every few seconds if the batteries are low.

The lid will open and the light
will flash green once every second. The
feeder will stay in this mode until a pet is
learnt or if you cancel with a second press
of the Add Pet ( ) button.
When your pet eats from the bowl and has
been learnt, the light will stop flashing and
remain on. When your pet moves away from
the feeder the lid will close and the green
light will turn o. Their microchip number is
now stored permanently in memory, even
when the batteries are removed.
Press the Add Pet ( ) button found
on the rear of the feeder.
Put some food/treats into the bowl and
place the feeder where you would nor-
mally feed your pet.
If you want to use the feeder for more than one pet, you can do this by repeating the process.
You are able to store up to 32 pets in each feeder.

When learning your pet into the feeder, make sure all other pets are kept away. If the wrong
pet is accidentally learnt you can perform a factory reset, as detailed in the troubleshooting
- see page 16. You can also use the Sure Petcare RFID Collar Tag if your pet does not have a
microchip and wears a collar.
Learning your pet into the feeder
In order to learn a pet’s microchip number, sensors located in the hoop at the front of the feeder
must detect a pet’s presence. Therefore it is important to ensure that your pet places their head
through the hoop to eat. No amount of waving your pet in front of the feeder will have an eect.

9
Now fill the bowl of your choice with your pet’s favourite food and once again place the feeder in
your pet’s normal eating spot.
During this first stage of teaching your pet to use the feeder,
the lid will not close aer they have finished eating.
Remember to take your time and let your pet get used to their new bowl.
Once they are happy proceed to Part 2.
It is important to allow your pet to get used to their new feeder for a couple of days without
any lid movement. Ensuring they are comfortable with their new bowl will help once we start
to introduce movement to the lid. This can take a little time but be patient, and do not move
on to Part 2 until your pet seems confident. See page 11 for help on introducing particularly
cautious pets to the feeder.

With the lid closed press the Training Function button ( ) once on the
rear of the feeder. The lid will open and the light will flash orange (once
every few seconds).
Now when your pet eats from the bowl there will be some
movement as the lid opens fully. When they finish eating, it will
close slightly.
PART 2 - Increasing the lid movement
PART 1 - Introducing your pet to the feeder

Now start to add increasing amounts of movement to the lid. This allows your pet to get
used to the motion of the lid in 3 stages. Once again, for the best results and a happy pet it is
important to be patient and not rush this process. The amount of time required at each stage
will vary for each pet (days/weeks) but we recommend taking a few days for each step.
Start to increase the motion of the lid by pressing the Training
Function ( ) button once again. The lid will close a small amount
and the light will flash orange twice.

(training mode)

EN
Once your pet is happy with the movement, press the Training Function
button ( ) again. The lid will close to the next position and the light
will now flash orange 3 times.
Remember to take your time. Do not proceed to the next step until your pet is
confident with this amount of lid movement.
Again, continue to use the feeder normally and do not proceed to the next
step until your pet is confident with this motion.
You can end the training mode at any time by pressing and holding the Training Function
( ) button for 5 seconds.
Allow your pet to use the bowl as normal whilst they get used to
the new lid movement. When you need to replace their food do so
as normal - see page 5. Aer replacing the food, ensure you press
the open/close button ( ) to close the lid to its training position.
Your pet should be happy with the lid movement now so this final
stage of training has the lid closed even further. As before, press
the
Training Function button ( ) again. The lid will close to its
final position and the light will now flash orange 4 times.

Once your pet is happy with this final position, press ( ) again.
The lid will close fully and the light will no longer flash. The feeder
is now sealed and in daily use mode.
When using multiple feeders and training your pets, only proceed to the next stage of training at
the point all pets are ready. See page 12 for more details.
?If your pet appears nervous of the lid closing aer they have backed away, you can adjust
the length of time before the lid closes. For full instructions see page 14.

Introducing a cautious pet to the feeder
1

2
Remove the feeder from the feeding
environment. Replace your pet’s normal
bowl with the SureFeed bowl.
Once your pet is happy with the feeder in
their environment, move the bowl onto the
feeder mat.
You can now start the training process
ensuring that your pet is happy with the lid
movements at each stage. See page 9.
Watch how your pet approaches the feeder.
If it is always in a certain direction don’t be
afraid to change the feeder position to help
them.
Finally when they are happy, move the
bowl into the feeder with the lid in the open
position.
Once your pet seems comfortable with
the new bowl type (this could be days)
reintroduce the feeder to their environment
placing it near the bowl.
In rare cases you may find your pet will require more time to become comfortable with their
new feeder, even when there is no lid movement. When this is the case it is important to let
them get used to the changes in their feeding environment gradually. This can take several
weeks but it is well worth the eort.

Training multiple pets
1
3

We recommend that each pet has their own
feeder. This allows for the correct control of
individual diets.
Make sure that all pets get used to eating
from the feeder when in the open position
before starting the training modes.
As you progress through the training
modes, your pets will learn which feeder is
theirs because it will only open for them.
Place the feeders apart so that each pet can
begin to dierentiate which feeder is theirs.
Using dierent coloured bowls can help with
this.
When you start using the training modes
remember to only move to the next stage
once all pets are happy with the movement
of the lid.
6
Note: At this point pets can eat from all
feeders.
When training multiple pets to use their feeders, they will be able to access each other’s food,
until the later stages of training. During this time continue to monitor and manage your pet’s
food intake.

13
The feeder is designed for
indoor use only.
To prevent damage to your feeder (and
yourself), try not to place in areas where
people are walking past frequently where it
could cause a trip hazard.
Placement near metallic/electrical
appliances is normally not a problem.
If unreliable operation occurs, then
moving the feeder away from the
appliance may be required.
Do not place the feeder in
the fridge or place ice packs
underneath or in the feeder.

Lid close delay
If you feel that your pet is nervous about the lid closing aer they back away from the
feeder or if you have a greedy pet who is trying to bully their way in for some extra food, you
can increase or decrease the time it takes the lid to close once the pet has finished eating
and stepped away.
The delay
slider can be
found on the
bottom of the
feeder. By default, the slider is set
to the middle setting (II)
for a standard delay time.
If other pets are stealing the food
aer the learnt pet has finished
eating, slide the slider to (I) for a
shorter delay before the lid closes.
If your pet seems nervous of the
movement aer eating, slide the
slider to (III) to set to a long delay
before the lid closes.

It is important to keep your SureFeed Microchip Pet Feeder clean to ensure it functions
reliably. Do not put the whole feeder into water or the dishwasher.
Hand wash the lid. Do not put
it in the dishwasher.
The feeder should be wiped with a damp cloth or
household cleaning wipes. Make sure the four black dots
on the hoop are kept clean to ensure reliable operation.
Cleaning

16
EN
• Ensure the sensors inside the hoop are clean - see page 15.
• Fit new, good quality 1.5V alkaline C cell batteries. Ensure they are all the correct
orientation. See page 7 for detailed information.
• Move the feeder away from any metallic or electrical appliances.
• Re-learn your pet using the Add Pet ( ) button - see page 8.
• Reset the feeder to factory settings, holding down the Add Pet ( ) button for 10 seconds
(until the light starts alternating red/green and the lid opens and closes). Then re-learn your
pet(s) in to the feeder again - see page 8.
• Please check with your vet to ensure that your pet’s microchip is working and that it is
located in the normal place. If there is no microchip or it has moved significantly becoming
hard to read, the provided Sure Petcare Collar Tag may be used instead. Attach the collar tag
to your pet’s collar and repeat the setup process see pages 8-10. If your pet does not wear a
collar please visit surepetcare.com/support for further advice.
• Repeat the training process - see page 9 - allowing more time for your pet to feel
comfortable between each step.
• If your pet is still very cautious of the feeder then try following the steps on page
11 ensuring you don’t try to force your pet to feed at any point.
• Assess your pet’s feeding environment. Do they always approach their bowl from
a set angle? Are they worried about having their back to the door? There is no set
orientation that the feeder must be placed in, so if you can change it to help your
pets feel more comfortable don’t be afraid to move it.
• If the time delay for the lid to close aer your pet has finished eating and stepped
back is not right for them, you can increase the time it takes the lid to close.
Change the delay slider to (III). For full instructions see page 14.
• If greedy pets are trying to steal food from an open feeder, try reducing the time it
takes the lid to close aer the pet has finished eating. Change the delay slider to
position (I). For full instructions see page 14.

Troubleshooting PART 2
?
• This has probably been caused by food debris getting caught under the lid or in the
mechanism. Although this may stop the lid from sealing onto the bowl it should
continue to prevent uncontrolled access to the food in all but the most extreme
cases.
To ensure that the lid continues to close correctly it is important to clear food
debris from the surfaces of the feeder each time that you replace the food.
The feeder lid is not closing all the way
• If you find that your pets are confused by which feeder is theirs, try using a
dierent coloured bowl to help with this.
• When in training mode, pets can feed from all available feeders. Proceed through
the stages of training and as the lid closes more, reducing access to the food, each
of your pets should begin to identify which bowl is theirs. See page 12.
