Recommended Location 

Put BrilliantPad™ where you typically use puppy or potty pads. Select a location that provides unobstructed access for your dog, ideally in an area that allows direct access to all four sides of the machine. If you must place BrilliantPad near walls or furniture, provide as much free access as possible.

System Controls

INDICATOR LIGHT Illuminates when power supply is connected:

GREEN	STEADY	Unit has power
GREEN	FLASHING	Animal is detected
RED	STEADY	Pad roll has been completely used up
RED	FLASHING	System requires attention, motor has stalled

Manual Pad Advance:

PRESS AND HOLD Pad Advance button to advance pad. Release button to turn off motor.

PRESS TWICE IN RAPID SUCCESSION to advance a full sheet.

 

Timer Control:

Press button to cycle through adjustable timed intervals:

1. If an Adjustable Timer mode is selected, the first automatic pad advance will occur 8, 12 or 24 hours after interval is selected. Then system will advance pad again every 8, 12 or 24 hours until Adjustable Timer is changed or deactivated. 

2. Pad advance will not occur automatically if system detects the presence of an animal on the platform. If an animal is detected when the Adjustable Timer is scheduled to activate motor, system will wait until dog leaves the platform before activating motor.

3. Manually advancing the paper when an Adjustable Timer mode is selected will not reset the Adjustable Timer.

4. If you want to stop the system once the Automatic Timer starts advancing the pad, press any button to turn off the motor. The System will go out of timed mode and the pad will no longer advance automatically. The desired time mode will need to be reset.

5. When the paper supply runs out, the system will automatically deactivate the Adjustable Timer and the main indicator light will turn steady red. Manual Pad Advance will continue to work. Press the Pad Advance button to reset the system and turn the indicator light to steady green. When ready to reactivate the timer, press the Adjustable Timer button to select desired automatic pad advance cycle.

 

 

 

 

 

Soiled Roll Removal

When fresh Pad Roll supply is empty, unlatch and open the Waste Cover to access the soiled Pad Roll:

The Pad Roll is designed to be fast, easy and clean to replace. There is no need to save the Take-up Rod or Gear Caps since they are biodegradable in most landfills. Simply lift the entire roll assembly from the machine and dispose in trash. The plastic backing provides a clean grasp surface and the Gear Caps prevent waste from leaking or spilling.

The entire Take-up assembly is disposable and made from earth-friendly materials, so you can feel good when you discard them with the soiled Pad Roll.   Install new Pad Roll according to previous instructions.  For more information about the materials and process used to make the Take-up Rod and Gear Caps, visit www.BrilliantPad.com/earth.

 

 

Troubleshooting Tips

Error Condition	Solution
Indicator light steady red	Pad Roll is used up. Install a new Pad Roll. Press Pad Advance button to reset the system and Indicator light will turn steady green.
Indicator light flashing red	The system has detected excessive force required to advance the Pad Roll.  Try these steps: Check for obstructions or objects caught in Pad Roll.   Make sure the Pad Roll is installed correctly, with the paper feeding from the bottom. Make sure Pad Roll material is tracking properly and winding onto the take-up assembly between the Gear Caps.   Remove Control Module and advance the pad material by hand by rotating take-up assembly -- the paper should advance freely.   Reinstall and lock Control Module in place.   Press Pad Advance button to reset system.  The Indicator light will turn steady green.
Indicator light turns steady red after every full pad sheet advance	The system is not detecting the marks on the underside of Pad Roll.   Check to make sure that the paper is tracking and centered on the take-up assembly.   Check that the small clear circular window in the platform is not obstructed.  This window allows the system sensor to “see” the pad marks.   Make sure the Control Module is attached fully and locked securely to the Base (Platform).
The system is non-responsive, nothing happens when the Pad Advance and Adjustable Timer Buttons are pressed.	Ensure electric outlet is on. Remove power brick from wall and press back into wall. If still no power, cycle power to the system by unplugging power cord from Control Module and then reconnecting power cord.
Motor turns, but pad material does not advance	Make sure pad material is secured to the take-up assembly.
Pad is not absorbing liquid	Make sure the white adsorbent layer is facing upward and color surface with black marks is facing floor.
