Step-by-Step Instructions with Tips:

Preparation: Ensure your Litter Genie XL is properly assembled and has a refill bag installed. Refill bags are crucial for odor control.
Daily Use: After each scooping session, follow the "Scoop, Open and Drop, Pull and Seal" steps. Aim to scoop your cat's litter box at least once a day, or more frequently if you have multiple cats.
Disposing of the Bag: When the Litter Genie XL is full (usually after a few weeks, depending on usage), open the unit to access the bag. Tie off the bag securely.
Cutting the Bag: Use the built-in cutter located inside the Litter Genie to cleanly cut the bag from the refill roll.
Disposal: Dispose of the tied-off bag in your regular trash.
Replacing the Bag: Tie a knot at the bottom of the new bag from the refill roll. Then, thread the bag down through the Litter Genie XL unit to prepare it for future use.

Regular Scooping: The more frequently you scoop, the less odor there will be.
High-Quality Litter: Using a high-quality clumping litter also helps control odors.
Activated Carbon Filter: Some Litter Genie models have an activated carbon filter to further reduce odors. Replace the filter according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Handle Stuck: Ensure the bag isn't overfilled. If the handle is stuck, try gently wiggling it while applying slight pressure.
Odor Issues: Check that the bag is properly sealed and that the refill cartridge is correctly installed.

By following these simple steps, you can effectively use your Litter Genie XL to keep your home clean and odor-free.
