Use good alkaline batteries and keep spares; a sensor bin with flat batteries is just a bin with a stuck lid. Wipe the sensor eye occasionally, since dust and splashes are the usual cause of erratic opening. Use correctly sized liners so the bag does not interfere with the lid closing. Empty daily at 8L, and wipe the interior weekly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow it compares\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAgainst a pedal bin, a sensor is fully hands-free and has no pedal linkage to break, at the cost of batteries. Against a press-open bin, it never needs touching — the main argument in a kitchen or a bathroom. For heavy kitchen waste, a larger bin is more practical than 8L.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy does the lid keep opening?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUsually because it sits in a walkway, or the sensor eye needs wiping.
