Troubleshooting
Unit not turning on
Ensure the unit is properly plugged into a working power outlet. Check the power cord for any damage. Try a different outlet.
Insects not being attracted or zapped
Verify that the UV LED bulbs are functioning. Clean the electric grid and the outer mesh. Ensure the unit is placed in a suitable location, away from competing light sources. Check if the bulbs need replacement.
Excessive noise from the unit
Some buzzing sound from the electric grid is normal during operation. If the noise is excessively loud or unusual, unplug the unit and inspect for any foreign objects or damage.
Collection tray filling up too quickly
This indicates a high level of insect activity. Ensure the unit is adequately sized for the area and that competing attractants are minimized. Clean the collection tray and grid more frequently.
