Litter-Robot: Carbon filter installation guide
Litter-Robot is equipped with a flexible carbon filter pad that is installed on the outer bottom area of the globe. This filter sits directly over the waste drawer to absorb odors.

The carbon filter is not required for the unit to function. The OdorTrap® Packs may be used instead of the carbon filter.

Further reduce unpleasant odors with a fresh carbon filter, compatible with any Litter-Robot 3 model.

Removing the carbon filter
- Pull out the waste drawer and locate the carbon filter in the front wall.

- Push the top edge of the filter downward to free it from the hooks.
- Pull the filter out of the slot and discard it.
Installing the carbon filter
- In the front wall of the waste drawer, slide the new filter into the slot.
- Bend the top edge of the filter and slide it under each hook.

- Adjust the filter, so it covers the front-facing vent completely.
Note: It is normal for the carbon filter to shed during installation. Simply wipe up or vacuum any debris.
