LED INDICATOR LIGHTS
The LED’s indicate that the UV lights are ON. If the left or right light is NOT on, the LED
in the front will NOT be on. The indicator light might not be working due to no bulb is
inserted, the bulb is defective or the ballast inside is defective. To verify if you need to
replace the ballast or the bulb, switch the bulb rst to a new bulb or bulb you know
works. If it does, no further action is needed. If it does not, the ballast should be replaced.
Once the issue has been resolved, there is no need to reset the xture. The xture will
automatically detect the problem has been resolved and user can conrm by ensuring
the LED light is solid ON.

UV-C LAMP DISPOSAL
Visit www.Earth911.com for your local or state waste management program and
information about where to dispose the used UV Lamp.
Contact your Local hardware stores, home improvement stores and other retailers who
sell UV and uorescent bulbs. Many stores allow customers to drop off used bulbs for
recycling.
If you cannot recycle, and if it is acceptable with your local agency, you may seal the bulb
in a plastic bag and put in trash for collection.
MAINTENANCE
UV lamps should be replaced on an annual basis or when the sanitizer prompts user of
issue. While there still may be visible blue light, the output of UV light will have decreased
signicantly (the UVC wavelength is invisible).
