Operation
Do not hang the insect killer close to doors or windows, since sunlight
weakens the UV-rays. Artificial light has no adverse effect on the insect
killer.
Changing the Fluorescent Tubes
Unplug the power plug before opening the unit.
Wait some minutes until the remaining current will disappear in the
capacitor. Or touch the high-voltage grid with the tip of a screwdriver.
1. Unscrew both screws at the rear
side of the housing at the top edge
and push the screen slightly
downward. The screen cannot be
tilted all the way.
2. Turn the UV tubes (2) until the
contacts are visible in the opening
of the fluorescent tube holders (4).
3. Pull out the fluorescent tubes and
insert new ones of the same type
and dimensions into the holders
(4).
4. Turn the fluorescent tubes ½ turn.
Hint: If the fluorescent tubes are not correctly engaged, the unit will not
work.
5. Re-mount the high-voltage grid.
Cleaning and Storing
Unplug from power mains before cleaning the unit.
Only use a dry or a damp cloth for cleaning.
Regular cleaning will promote efficient operation.
Dirt can affect the intensity and the effectiveness of the insect killer.
The intensity of the light and the effectiveness of the insect killer will
diminish after years of operation.
