4.2 UPVC / Metal Doors 0-50mm (0-2") Thick
Doors constructed with metal panels may reduce the range of the microchip reader. You
may test for metal panels by drilling a small trial hole in the middle of the intended cat
flap location.
For UPVC / metal doors it is essential to cut a larger hole than for wooden doors
and to retune the cat flap as below:
4.2.1 Place exterior frame in desired position on door. We recommend the bottom of the
aperture is approximately 150mm (6") above ground level. (Fig. 9a). If you must
fit higher consider providing a step to help your cat enter.
4.2.2 Draw around the OUTSIDE of the frame. (Fig. 9a). Using an electric jigsaw cut
12mm ( 1 / ") INSIDE the line (Fig. 9b).

4.2.3 Determine thickness of door panel, (t). (Fig. 10).
4.2.4 Position interior frame on inside of door and screw exterior frame to it by using
appropriate screws for panel thickness, (t), as shown in Fig. 12. If necessary, cut
supplied screws to length. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN SCREWS which may
prevent the flap from closing properly - use a manual screwdriver. Finally fit two
screw caps.
4.2.5 Remove batteries for a minimum of 2 minutes after installation. This will enable
the cat flap to retune itself to its new location.
4.3 Glass Panels
4.3.1 We recommend that you ask a glazier to cut a hole of 232mm (9
the position required and then install the cat flap as detailed below. Alternatively,
you may prefer to replace the glass panel with a clear plastic panel and install as
instructions 4.1.1 to 4.1.6.
Note: It is not possible to cut a hole in double glazed or toughened glass. You will
need a new glass panel with the hole already cut from your glazier.
4.3.2 Determine thickness of panel, (t). (Fig. 10).
4.3.3 The black foam seal is not suitable for fitting to glass and should be removed. If
desired, the exterior frame may be sealed to the glass panel using silicone
sealant.
4.3.4 Position interior frame on inside of panel, screw exterior frame to it by using
appropriate screws for panel thickness, (t), as shown in Fig. 12. If necessary, cut
supplied screws to length. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN SCREWS which may
prevent the flap from closing properly - use a manual screw driver. Finally fit two
screw caps.
4.4 Wall Fitting
If you are installing your cat flap in a wall, you will need to purchase Cat Mate Elite Wall
Liners. You will need 1 wall liner for every 50mm (2") of wall thickness over 100mm (4").
4.4.1 Create a rectangular hole in your wall 205mm (8") high by 180mm (7") wide.
4.4.2 Remove interior frame battery cover by pushing up as shown (Fig. 2).

4.4.3 Remove interior frame cover by unscrewing 2 screws in rear of interior frame (Fig.
13). (Note: these screws may be discarded as it will be impossible to refit them).
Next remove the outermost 2 screws under the battery cover and remove the
interior frame by pivoting down (Fig. 14).
4.4.4 Carefully remove 2 screw clips with pliers. (Fig. 15).
4.4.5 Fit interior frame assembled with requisite number of wall liners to interior wall
securing in position with 2 suitable screws as shown in Fig. 16. (Note: you will
need to fit a washer (not supplied) under the head of the screws). If required, the
wall liners may be glued in place, although a firm push fit will usually suffice.
4.4.6 Refit interior frame cover with 2 screws under battery cover, taking great care not
to trap electrical wires. Replace the battery cover.
4.4.7 Fit exterior frame using 2 off 25mm (1") screws supplied and finally, fit 2 screw
caps.
5. Training Your Cat to Use the Cat Flap (or if Your Cat Has Lost its I.D. Disc)
It may take a little time for your cat to get used to its new cat flap. To help your cat get
used to entering and exiting the flap, the flap can be set to 'TRAINING MODE' by
pressing and holding the 'PROG' button and within 3 seconds briefly pressing the '4
WAY' button.
After 5 seconds the lock will unlock and the 'PROG' button should then be released.
The 'IN & OUT' symbol will remain flashing.
Please be aware that in 'TRAINING MODE' your cat flap will allow access for other
animals.
To exit the 'TRAINING MODE', press and hold the 'PROG' button and within
3 seconds briefly press the '4 WAY' button. After 5 seconds the flap will re-lock and
the 'PROG' button should then be released.
For very hesitant cats, whilst in the 'TRAINING MODE', use food to encourage the cat
to enter and exit the flap.
NOTE: We do NOT recommend that cats, particularly kittens, are left alone to use
their cat flap until you are satisfied that they are completely familiar with its operation.
6. Viewing Your Cat's Location
The LCD shows at a glance, the location of up to three cats (1-3).
The cat last went through the
flap, coming into the house.
Please note this display is only a guide to your cats' location. The cat flap determines
the location of your cat by recording its last movement through the cat flap.
The results may be misleading if the cat has an alternative entrance/exit to the house
or if the cat has followed another cat through the cat flap; if it only puts its nose out of
the cat flap etc.
The cat last went through the
flap, going out of the house.
