IMPORTANT: DO NOT press or push against the screen windows while cleaning or assembling.

WARNING

, When using electric appliances, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:

– To disconnect, turn all controls to the off (“O”) position, then remove plug from outlet.

– Unplug from outlet when not in use and before servicing or cleaning.

– To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not put appliance in water or other liquid.

– This appliance is provided with double insulation. Use only identical replacement parts. 

  See instructions for Servicing of Double-Insulated Appliances.

– Connect only to a circuit that is protected by a ground-fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI).

– To Reduce the Risk of Electric Shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a  

  polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified  

  electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.

RETAINING

CAGE

Flying insects are attracted to the unit by 

the UV light and the CO

2

 that is generated 

by the photo-catalysis between the UV 

lamps and the TiO

2

 coating. The fan pulls 

the insects into the retaining cage, 

trapping them until they dehydrate and 

die. The screened base can be removed, 

so you can periodically empty the 

contents into the trash. The screen allows 

you to see what’s trapped in the 

compartment, alerting you when the 

retaining cage needs to be emptied.

INSTALLATION

1.  Remove cardboard insert from the retaining cage.

2.  Place the air damper assembly in the retaining cage with the crossbar facing up.  

  Align the six damper notches with the matching notches on the retaining cage.

3.  Place the trap on the retaining cage and twist clockwise to the lock position.

4.  Save carton for off-season storage (if needed).

5.  If hanging the unit, place it approximately 3–6 feet above floor or ground for  

  optimal catch-rate and easy access for cleaning.

  Unit can also be placed on the floor or ground. 

6.  Plug cord into an outdoor outlet or UL listed extension cord as described     

  in “IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS”.

7.  Turn power switch to “ON” position. The switch is located under the upper   

  housing near the light bulbs.

8.  For best catch results leave unit on at all times, except when cleaning or servicing.

9.  Catch rate activity will be higher at night. For best catch results, place unit away  

  from other competing light sources.

10. It is recommended to place the unit 20 to 40 feet away from where people

  will be sitting.

11. This unit is all-weather resistant – designed for outdoor use including rainy conditions.

In a double-insulated appliance, two systems of insulation are provided instead of grounding. No grounding means is provided on a 

double-insulated appliance, nor should a means for grounding be added to the appliance. Servicing of a double-insulated appliance 

requires extreme care and knowledge of the system, and should be done only by a qualified service personnel. Replacement parts for a 

double-insulated appliance must be identical to those parts in the appliance. A double-insulated appliance is marked with the words 

“DOUBLE INSULATION” or “DOUBLE INSULATED”.  The symbol (square within a square) may also be marked on the appliance.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR DOUBLE-INSULATED, CORD-CONNECTED APPLIANCES:

This device complies with Performance Standards 

for Light-Emitting Products, 21 DFR, Part 1040, 

Chapter 1, Subchapter J, Radiological Health.

REPLACING BULBS

Light bulbs life expectancy is approximately 3,000 hours (or about 4 months), and should be replaced after that time has passed in 

order to maintain optimal UV effectiveness. Even though the bulb’s light may be visible to you, it’s ability to attract insects diminishes 

over time.

1.  Turn power switch to “OFF” position, UNPLUG UNIT, and allow bulbs to cool before replacing.

2.  Remove screws from clear plastic light socket covers.

3.  Remove both clear plastic covers by squeezing the tabs and pulling downward.

4. Carefully turn bulb counterclockwise and then pull bulb straight out. 

5.  Locate and insert new bulbs into sockets, carefully turn clockwise, and make sure the prongs of the bulb are seated properly.
Replacement bulbs (6-watt fluorescent bulbs – part no. 32050) can be found at your local retailer or can be ordered directly from 

DynaTrap by calling 1-877-403-TRAP (8727) or visiting www.dynatrap.com 
6.  Replace both clear plastic covers by squeezing the tabs and pushing upward into place.
