Troubleshooting
Insect killer not turning on
Ensure the unit is securely plugged into a working 230V outlet. Check the power switch on the unit to confirm it is in the 'on' position. If the problem persists, check the fuse or circuit breaker for the outlet.
Fewer insects being caught
Verify that the UV-A tubes are functioning correctly (emitting light). Ensure the unit is placed in an optimal location, away from competing light sources and at an appropriate height. Clean the collection tray and check for any obstructions on the electric grid.
UV tubes flickering or not fully lit
This may indicate the UV-A tubes are nearing the end of their lifespan and require replacement. Consult the product manual for instructions on how to safely replace the tubes.
Unpleasant odor when in use
This is typically due to a buildup of dead insects in the collection tray or on the grid. Unplug the unit and thoroughly clean the collection tray and the electric grid.
