🔒 Lock Feature
Two-level safety lock for households with children/pets or tight installation spaces.
💡 "🔒3sec" on the panel means: hold the Open button 3 seconds to activate the lock — it's not a separate button. ⚠️ Note: The lock icon and "3sec" label are printed next to the Open button as a instructional marking — they are not a separate touch point. Pressing directly on the lock icon/label itself will not activate anything. You must press and hold the Open button (the icon showing the lid symbol) for 3 seconds to activate the lock. |
◻ Lock Level 1 — Foot Sensor Disabled
Hold Open Button for 3 sec → beep + foot sensor light flashes red 3x, then off. Foot sensor no longer opens the lid; Open button still works.
◻ Lock Level 2 — Full Lock (Foot Sensor + Open Button Disabled)
From Level 1, hold Open for 3 more sec → Open button light turns solid red. Both foot sensor and Open button are disabled.
🔓 Unlocking
- From Level 2: hold Open 3+ sec to cycle back to unlocked.
- Quick reset (any level): power cycle the unit.
⁉ Troubleshooting: Small Lid Won't Open
Indicator | Status |
Foot sensor flashing red | Lock Level 1 active — foot sensor disabled |
Open button solid red | Lock Level 2 active — full lock |
To resolve: Unlock via the Open button or power cycle the unit.
If lock is fully disabled and the lid still doesn't open (button/sensor light turns green but lid stays shut), this may be a hardware issue.
