Cleaning and Maintenance

Warning! Never touch the metal grid with your bare hands. If you need to clean the tray,
follow the safety instructions carefully.
The cleaning frequency depends on the intensity of use. Check the tray of the device at least once a
week. Clean more often if necessary.
6.1 Discharging the Device before Maintenance
1. Unplug the device from the mains.
2. Use a screwdriver with an insulated handle. Make sure you hold the screwdriver by the handle only.
3. Short-circuit the 2 wires of the inner metal grid by gently touching them simultaneously with the
metal shaft of the screwdriver. This may cause a spark.
4. Repeat until no more sparks appear.
6.2 Cleaning the Tray
1. Remove the tray by sliding it out of the device.
2. Clean the tray with a brush.
6.3 Cleaning the Device
1. Make sure the power plug is disconnected from the mains outlet before starting any maintenance
activity.
2. Discharge the device (see 6.1).
3. Clean the insect killer regularly with a dry, clean cloth. Do not submerge in any liquid.
4. Release the two nuts on the top (see arrows) and lift the top part with the lamps and the high
voltage grid.
5. Make sure that no dust accumulates on the UV lamps, as this will greatly reduce their effectiveness.
6. Only use a plastic brush to clean the high-voltage grid. Brush gently to avoid damage.
7. Gently slide the top part with the high voltage grid back into the outer grid.
8. Place the washers back over the bolts and secure with the nuts (2 x).
6.4 Replacing Lamps and Starters
When the lamps are worn, you must replace them with an identical type (see Technical
Specifications).
1. Make sure the power plug is disconnected from the mains outlet before starting any maintenance
activity.
2. Discharge the device (see 6.1).
3. Release the two nuts on the top (see arrows) and lift the top part with the lamps and the high
voltage grid.
4. To remove a UV lamp, gently turn it a quarter turn and pull it upwards out of the sockets.
5. Place a new UV lamp into the socket and turn it a quarter turn to secure it.
6. To replace a starter, first remove the UV lamp that covers it.
7. Turn the starter a quarter turn and pull it out of the socket.
8. Insert a new starter with the same specifications into the socket and turn it a quarter turn to
secure it.
9. Place the UV lamp back.
