Adding to the good list: kitchens often have GFCI outlets or switched outlets - press the Reset button on the outlet and make sure no wall switch controls it. Seat the jar and lid firmly so the safety interlock clicks then unplug for a minute and, after plugging back in, hold the main power for 2–3 seconds with the dial at 0. If you still get no lights at all, it’s likely a bad base and using the warranty is the right move.

Clinic trick for speed eaters is predictability plus tiny portions... Aim for four to six hours of coverage during your busy window and then a couple of small overnight drops. For most adult cats that ends up around 8 to that model events, each one eighth cup or less with slow feed on. Keep the first week identical so his gut and brain settle. Expect louder meowing the first few days. Then it fades. If vomit happens, do not add volume at the next meal. Shorten the interval instead. A two minute trickle works better than a dump. Place the unit on a grippy mat and angle the bowl slightly by propping the back feet so kibble rolls inward rather than popping out. Uniform round or small triangular kibble jams less. Anything big, oily, or powdery increases clogs. Wipe dust out when you refill and toss in a fresh desiccant to cut static.
