Claim:
1. A sheet conveying apparatus comprising: a feed tray configured to hold sheets thereon; a conveying mechanism configured to convey a sheet fed from the feed tray along a conveying path in a conveying direction; a detecting unit configured to detect an object; a first actuator configured, as an object, to move between a first detection position at which the first actuator is detected by the detecting unit, and a first non-detection position at which the first actuator is not detected by the detecting unit, the first actuator being configured to be located at the first non-detection position when the first actuator is in contact with a sheet held on the feed tray, and to be located at the first detection position when no sheet is held on the feed tray; a second actuator configured, as an object, to move between a second detection position at which the second actuator is detected by the detecting unit, and a second non-detection position at which the second actuator is not detected by the detecting unit, the second actuator being configured to be located at the second detection position when the second actuator is in contact, at a predetermined position, with the sheet conveyed by the conveying mechanism, and to be located at the second non-detection position when the second actuator is out of contact, at the predetermined position, with the sheet conveyed by the conveying mechanism, the predetermined position being a position downstream of the first actuator in the conveying direction, a notifying unit configured to notify a user of information; and a controller configured to control the notifying unit, wherein the controller is configured to execute:
