This video demonstrates the unboxing and initial setup of the MiBowl feeder, including inserting batteries and preparing the unit for use. It highlights the ease of getting the feeder ready right out of the box.
2. Installing the Food Bowl and Lid
Place the removable food bowl into the designated slot within the feeder. Ensure it sits securely. Then, place the clear lid over the food bowl. The lid is designed to keep food fresh and secure when the feeder is closed.
3. Attaching Portion Protectors (Optional)
Image: Feeder Opening with and without Portion Protectors
This image illustrates the two configurations for the feeder's opening. With the clear portion protector clips installed, the opening is reduced to 3.5 inches, ideal for smaller cats and kittens to prevent larger pets from accessing the food. Without the clips, the opening is 6 inches wide, suitable for larger cats or small dogs. The clips are easily removable and re-attachable.
For smaller pets or to further restrict access, attach the clear portion protector clips to the sides of the feeder opening. These clips reduce the opening width, ensuring only the intended small pet can comfortably access the food.
Maagizo ya Uendeshaji
1. Programming Your Pet's Microchip or ID Disc
The MiBowl® can be programmed for up to 10 pets. To pair your pet's microchip or the included electronic ID disc:
- Press and hold the 'Add Pet' button (usually marked with a paw print or '+' symbol) until the light flashes.
- Gently guide your pet's head (or the electronic ID disc) into the feeder opening. The feeder will scan for the microchip or ID disc.
- Once successfully paired, the light will flash rapidly and then turn solid, indicating the pet is registered.
- Repeat for additional pets.
Image: How the MiBowl Feeder Works
This diagram visually explains the core functionality of the MiBowl feeder. It shows that only pets with a registered microchip or ID tag can trigger the lid to open, granting them access to the food. Unpaired pets, even if they approach the feeder, will find the lid remains closed, effectively preventing them from eating the food intended for others.
2. Training Mode
For pets new to the feeder, a training mode is available to help them acclimate to the automatic lid operation.
- Press and hold the 'Training' button (marked with a graduation cap symbol) until the lid opens and the red light flashes. The lid will remain open for an extended period.
- Allow your pet to eat comfortably from the open feeder.
- Once your pet is comfortable, press the 'Training' button again to exit training mode. The lid will resume normal operation, opening only when a registered pet approaches.

The training mode allows the lid to stay open longer, helping pets become comfortable with the feeder before it operates automatically based on microchip detection.
3. Matumizi ya Kila Siku
Once programmed, the feeder will automatically open its lid when a registered pet approaches and closes when the pet moves away. This ensures fresh food and prevents other pets or pests from accessing it.
