time.

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 clean
ing 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.

HOW THE DYNATRAP
®
Flying insects are attracted to the unit by the UV light and CO2 that is generated
by the photo-catalysis between the UV lamps and the special TiO2 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 cage needs to be emptied.
