Important Notice
Please read all of these instructions BEFORE fitting the SureFlap DualScan Microchip Cat
Flap™. Importantly, please check whether there is metal in the substrate
fitted into. Please follow the metal mount instructions in section 6.3 if this is the case.
Under no circumstances should you cut or drill through the tunnel of the main
assembly of the unit as this contains the microchip reader and will prevent the
unit from working properly.
The
DualScan cat flap will operate with all 9, 10, and 15-digit microchips that are commonly
used for pet identification, except 10 digit chips with codes beginning 000..., 010..., or 020...
Alternatively, you can use the cat flap with the S u r e P e t c a r e RFID
separately), please see section 4 for more information.
Every effort has been made to ensure the DualScan cat flap will o perate w ith a ll relevant
microchips. However, there are a small number of circumstances relating to the position of your
cat's microchip and the signal strength of the individual chip, which may mean that the cat flap
does not operate reliably.
We therefore strongly advise that the following checks are carried out before permanent
changes are made to a door to install the cat flap:
1.
Insert batteries and leave for 10 seconds with nothing in the tunnel so that the sensors can
settle.
2.
Follow the standard learn process for the first of your cats who is allowed outside, see
section 5.1.
3.
Leave the flap until the lock closes again.
4.
Test the normal operation of the flap, see section 8. Persuade your cat to put its head up
to the door from the tunnel side. Try to make sure this is similar to how your cat would use
it in practice, as shown below. The catch should open. Now do this again but from the side
with the battery compartment, and check that the catch opens.
5.
Repeat this process for each of your cats who are allowed to go outside.
6.
For cats who are going to be kept indoors learn them into the cat flap using safety learn
mode (section 5.2) and then test normal operation from the tunnel side only.
Please test to make sure your cat(s) can fit comfortably through the flap before fitting.
