IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
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.
– Connect only to a circuit that is protected by a ground-fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI).
See instructions for Servicing of Double-Insulated Appliances.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR DOUBLE-INSULATED, CORD-CONNECTED APPLIANCES:
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 qualified service personnel.
Replacement parts for a double-insulated appliance must be identical to those parts in the appliance.

CLEANING
Frequent cleaning will prolong the life of the unit, ensure fire prevention and provide for more efficient operation.

3. For weekly cleaning, remove the screw securing the retaining cage and then twist the cage clockwise. Remove any buildup from the inside
of the retaining cage and fan with a brush (included).
4. For major cleaning, remove the four screws securing the fan housing to the light housing. After removing the screws, gently pull the fan
housing away from the light housing. Using a soft brush, remove dirt and debris from the light housing. Once the cleaning process has
been completed, align the screw holes in the fan housing with the screw holes in the lighting unit and tighten the screws to the base of
the lighting unit.
5. When replacing the retaining cage – DO NOT press/push against the screen windows.
REPLACING BULB
The light bulb life expectancy is approximately 3,000 hours (or about 4 months), and should be replaced regularly to ensure optimal UV
effectiveness. Even though the bulb’s light may be visible to you, its ability to attract insects diminishes over time.
1. Turn power switch to “off” position. UNPLUG UNIT, and allow bulb to cool before replacing.
2. Remove retaining cage, and turn unit upside down.
3. Remove the four screws securing the fan housing to the light housing. After removing the screws, gently pull the fan housing away from
the light housing. Using a soft brush, remove dirt and debris from the light housing. Once the cleaning process has been completed,
untighten the screw securing the base of the light bulb to the light housing. Slide the metal bracket to the side. Cover the bulb with a
cloth to protect your finger and hand. Grasp the bulb (with your hand and fingers protected by the cloth) and gently pull the bulb from
the socket.
4. Remove any debris from the lamp socket with a brush before inserting the new bulb. Replace the metal plate over the base of the bulb
and tighten the retaining screw.
5. Align the screw holes in the fan housing with the screw holes in the lighting unit and tighten the screws to the base of the lighting unit.
6. Replace the retaining cage at the bottom of the unit.

HOW THE DYNATRAP
®
INSECT TRAP WORKS
Flying insects are attracted to the unit by UV light and CO
2
that is
generated by the photo-catalysis between the UV lamps and spe-
cial TiO
2
coating. The fan then pulls the insects into the screened
base, trapping them until they dehydrate and die. The base can be
removed, allowing the contents to be periodically emptied into
the trash. The see-through screen shows the insects trapped in the
compartment, alerting you when the net needs to be emptied.
