Assembling the PIXI Mio Carrier
1. Connecting the front end and base
Connect the front end to the base by sliding them together until they align fully. The front part has built-in guides that help position and align the base correctly.
You should feel or hear a gentle click, indicating that both components are securely locked together.
Make sure that the assembly guides are properly aligned.
When correctly assembled, the outer surfaces sit flush against each other.
Make sure the protrusion on the bottom is fully seated behind the bottom snap. This connection ensures the front end and base are firmly secured together.
2. Attaching the back lock
Step 2.1: Take the back clip, and unlock it to release the hinge inside.
Step 2.2: Clip the hinge onto the back of the base by pushing the hinge upward with both hands. Push with moderate force until you hear and feel a definite click.
If assembled correctly, the Catit logo on the back will be upright and clearly legible.
3. Adding the top
Step 3.1: While holding the top part at a 45° downward angle, slide the hook located between the two cat ears underneath the recess on the top of the front part.
Step 3.2: Gently lower the top half until it lands and aligns perfectly with the base.
When correctly installed, the sides of the back door align perfectly with the rest of the body.
Step 3.3: Close the back lock by hooking the top of the circular clip onto the ledge of the back door, then pressing down firmly on the bottom of the clip. You should hear and feel a distinct click, confirming it is securely closed.
Step 3.4: Check that the back clip is fully engaged and sits flush against the carrier body. Lock the back clip by sliding the safety button to the right.
4. Attaching the front window
Step 4.1: Open the small cover above the nose. This reveals the fastening system for the front door.
Step 4.2: Align the grey triangular clip on the front door with the slot above the nose area. Gently push the window straight downward until you hear a click, indicating the clip is securely in place.
Step 4.3: Close the window and lock it by sliding the sliders fully outward. Gently pull on the front door to confirm the window is locked. To unlock the door, slide both sliders inward.
Ready, set, go!

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS – KEEP CARRIER OUT OF DIRECT SUNLIGHT
Securing your pet in the Catit PIXI Mio within your vehicle protects your pet and all passengers in the event of any sudden stops, sharp turns, or accidents. Unrestrained pets in a vehicle may pose a serious threat. Never leave your pet unattended in a vehicle. No matter the exterior climate, direct sunlight will transform your vehicle into an oven. It is very difficult for pets to regulate their body temperature. Exposure to heat for even a short period of time may have lethal consequences.
IMPORTANT
When using the Catit PIXI Mio cat carrier, always place it on a flat, stable surface to ensure your cat’s safety. Never leave your cat unattended inside the carrier, especially in direct sunlight, as this can lead to overheating. Note that the carrier is not a toy, keep it out of reach of children and use it for pet transport only. Always ensure all fastenings are properly secured before lifting or moving the carrier. To clean, wipe the carrier with a damp cloth and a non-abrasive cleaning agent as needed, making sure no residue is left behind. For the padded cushion, please refer to the label for specific washing instructions
