• USB-C Charging: For faster charging or when solar power is unavailable, use the provided USB-C cable to charge the device from any standard USB power adapter (not included).

Maintenance

• Cleaning the Grid: Regularly clean the internal high-voltage grid to remove accumulated dead insects. Ensure the device is turned off and unplugged. Use the provided small brush to gently sweep away debris from the grid. Do not use water or metal objects.
• Exterior Cleaning: Wipe the exterior of the unit with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

Troubleshooting

• Device Not Turning On: Ensure the device is fully charged. Connect it to a USB power source or place it in direct sunlight for several hours.
• Zapper Not Working: Check if the bug zapper button (insect icon) has been pressed. Ensure the unit has sufficient charge. Clean the internal grid if there is excessive insect buildup.
• LED Light Not Working: Check if the LED light button (light bulb icon) has been pressed. Ensure the unit has sufficient charge.
