1. Be sure to clean the unit once per week

REPLACING BULB Replace With DynaTrap Bulb #43050 (or equivalent G24 Type – 120V/26W 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. Turn the unit upside
down.
2. Twist the black threaded fastener piece securing the light housing counter clockwise to loosen. Move the light
housing to the side.
3. Twist the two black threaded fastener pieces securing the light and carefully remove the silver clips.
4. Cover the bulb with a cloth to protect your fingers and hand. Grasp the bulb (with your hand and fingers
protected by the cloth) and gently pull the bulb from the socket.
5. Remove any debris from the lamp socket with a brush before inserting the new bulb. Insert new replacement
bulb. Place metal clips in place and secure black threaded fasteners.
6. Twist the light housing clockwise into place and secure the black threaded fastener.
HOW THE DYNATRAP® INSECT TRAP WORKS
Flying insects are attracted to the unit by the UV light and CO2 that is generated by the photocatalysis 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.
Monitor the insects trapped in the retaining cage, through the see-through screen, and empty when compartment
becomes full.
