5. Operating Instructions
Refer to the illustrations on page 2 of this manual.
•
Flying insects are attracted by the UV light [C] which is mounted near a high voltage electrical
grid [A]. When touching the grid, the insects are electrocuted and fall into the collector [B].
IMPORTANT: Never touch the metal grid with your bare hands! If you need to clean the tray,
follow the safety instructions carefully.
a. Discharging the device before maintenance
•
Unplug the device from the mains.
•
Use a screwdriver with an insulated handle. Make sure you only hold the screwdriver by
the handle.
•
Short-circuit the 2 wires of the inner metal grid by gently touching them simultaneously
with the metal shaft of the screwdriver. A spark may arise. Repeat this manipulation until
no more sparks arise.
b. Cleaning the tray
•
Remove the tray by sliding it out of the device.
•
Clean the tray with a brush.
c. Cleaning the device / replacing lamps and starters
•
Clean the insect killer regularly with a dry, clean cloth and plastic brush. Do not submerge
into any liquid.
•
Make sure no dust accumulates on the UV lamps as this will greatly reduce their
effectiveness.
•
Unplug the device from the mains.
•
Discharge the device (see a.).
•
Release the two nuts on the top (see arrows) and lift the top part (with the lamps and high
voltage grid).
•
Only use a plastic brush to clean the high-voltage grid. Brush gently to avoid damage.
•
When the lamps are worn, they must be replaced with a similar type (see technical
specifications)
•
Remove a UV-lamp by gently turning it a quarter turn and pull it upwards out of the
sockets.
•
Place a new UV-lamp into the socket and turn it a quarter turn to secure it.
•
To replace a starter, first remove the UV-lamp that covers it.
•
Turn the starter a quarter turn and pull it out of the socket. Insert a new starter with the
same specifications into the socket and turn it a quarter turn to secure it.
•
Gently slide the top part with the high voltage grid back into the outer grid.
•
Place the washers back over the bolts and secure with the nuts (2x).
