How the Mosquito Magnet®Works
Mosquitoes and other biting insects use the long-range
attractant carbon dioxide (CO2) to locate people. Once in
close proximity, mosquitoes use short-range scents
emitted from the skin, to determine which person they
are going to bite. The Mosquito Magnet mimics a
human by converting propane to CO2, with its patented
catalytic conversion technology, in combination with a
short-range scent.
Attracted by the CO2and short-range scents,
mosquitoes and other biting insects are drawn to
the Mosquito Magnet. When they reach the trap,
the insects are vacuumed into a bug bag by our
patented Counterflow Technology™, where they
dehydrate and die within 24 hours.
The Mosquito Magnet is silent, odorless and runs 24/7.
When properly placed in your yard, the trap begins
working immediately. Noticeable results can be
achieved in 7 to 10 days. To greatly reduce your biting
insect population, allow 4 weeks. Leave the Mosquito
Magnet out all summer long, to control the mosquito
population in your yard.
Only biting insects are targeted including mosquitoes,
no-see-ums, black flies and midges. Beneficial insects
such as butterflies, bees or moths are not targeted.

Maintenance
Maintenance
• 21 Day Maintenance Cycle
- Refill propane tank. 20 lb (9.07 kg) propane tank lasts
approximately 21 days with 24-hour/7-days operation.
- Replace Octenol or Lurex3 cartridge.
See cartridge label for instructions.
- Empty or replace bug bag.
- Utilize the Quick Clear adapter at every tank change.
• Periodically wipe down the outside of the trap
with a clean, water damp cloth.
• Replace your 4 “C” Batteries every season.
Propane Tank Changing Tips
When attaching the regulator knob to a tank after a tank change,
be sure to fully tighten the regulator knob onto the tank. No need
to use tools, but do turn the knob as far as possible by hand.
When this is done, loosen the knob 1/4 turn, then re-tighten to
maximize seal.
The purpose for this is to fully engage the regulator onto the tank. If
the regulator is not fully engaged, the flow of gas may be restricted
to the point where the trap will show a gas empty code. If this
occurs, press the off button, close the tank valve, and remove the
regulator from the tank. Re-attach the regulator and try again.

Hvordan Mosquito Magnet®virker
Mygg og andre stikkende insekter merker karbondioksid (CO2)
på lang avstand, og kan på denne måten finne mennesker. Når
myggen er i nærheten, bruker den kortdistanselukter som
avgis fra huden, til å bestemme hvem de skal bite. Mosquito
Magnet etterligner et menneske ved å konvertere propan til
CO2med den patenterte katalytiske konverteringsteknologien,
kombinert med en kortdistanselukt.
Mygg og andre bitende insekter trekker seg mot Mosquito
Magnet fordi de tiltrekkes av CO2og kortdistanselukter. CO2 og
dette lokkemiddelet som er beregnet på kortdistanser. Når de
når frem til myggfellen vil insektene bli sugd inn i en insektpose
ved hjelp av vår patenterte Counterflow Technology™. Her vil de
tørke ut og dø innen 24 timer.
Mosquito Magnet er stille, luktfri og går hele døgnet. Når fellen
er plassert riktig i hagen din, vil den umiddelbart begynne å
virke. Du vil få merkbare resultater innen 7 til 10 dager. Etter 4
uker vil du merke at antall stikkende insekter er drastisk
redusert. La Mosquito Magnet stå ute hele sommeren slik at
den kan effektivt bekjempe myggbestanden i din hage.
Det er kun stikkende insekter som blir berørt av denne
myggfellen, som f.eks. mygg, knott, sandflue og tuneflue.
Nyttige insekter som sommerfugler, bier og møll blir ikke
berørt.

Gratulerer med ny Mosquito Magnet®. Nå kan du nyte det å være utendørs igjen.
Mosquito Magnet er den mest populære myggfellen i Nord-Amerika. Den er blitt testet og forsket på i atten år,
og den reduserer betraktelig antall mygg og andre stikkende insekter i hagen din. Dette er vitenskapelig bevist.
Mosquito Magnet er enkel å bruke. En vedlagt CD-ROM gir deg god forklaring på hvordan du kan komme igang.
I denne brukerhåndboken vil du finne informasjon om hvordan den fungerer, best plassering av myggfellen,
vedlikehold, oppbevaring og garanti. Nøkkelen til suksess er plasseringen av myggfellen, bruk av Octenol- eller
Lurex3-patroner (avhengig av området) og rutinemessig vedlikehold. Beste resultat oppnås ved å skifte
propanflasken og Octenol- eller Lurex3-patronen hver 21. dag, og bruke Quick Clear-patronen hver gang flasken
skal skiftes.

Sikkerhetsinstrukser
• Hold en avstand på 51 – 61 cm rundt luftåpningene som fører til
brennkammeret. Hold brennbart materiale borte fra apparatet.
Forbrenningsluft og ventilasjonsluft må ikke blokkeres. Hold
området rundt myggfellen fri for brennbart materiale, bensin og
andre typer brennbar damp og væske. Du må ikke bruke
apparatet på steder hvor det er stor sannsynlighet for at
brennbar damp eller eksplosive stoffer kan oppstå.
• Se til at forbrenningsluft og ventilasjonsluft ikke er
blokkert.
• Se til at det ikke er smuss rundt ventilasjonsåpningene på
flasken.
• Rengjør myggfellen med en fuktig klut, hvis det blir
nødvendig.
• Propanflasken må være utstyrt med en avstengningsventil
som stenger propanen fra gassflasken i henhold til gjeldende
forskrifter om brannfarlig eller trykksatt stoff. Alt utstyr som
er beregnet for gass skal være CE-merket.
• Propanflasken må være beregnet på et
damptilførselssystem, og flasken må ha en krage som
beskytter sylinderventilen.
• Propanflasken som du bruker må være konstruert og
merket for propanflaske i henhold til gjeldende forskrifter
om brannfarlig eller trykksatt stoff. Alt utstyr som er
beregnet for gass skal være CE-merket.
• Myggfellen må kun brukes utendørs, og området må være
godt ventilert. Den må ikke brukes inne i en bygning,
garasje, eller andre innestengte områder.
• Hvis du ønsker å oppbevare apparatet innendørs, må du
stenge gassen og ta ut propanflasken, for deretter å fjerne
det fra apparatet.
• Propanflasken må oppbevares utendørs, og området må
være godt ventilert. Propanflasken skal oppbevares
utilgjengelig for barn.
• Propanflasker som er koblet fra må ha gjengete
ventilplugger som sitter godt. Propanflasker må ikke
oppbevares inne i en bygning, garasje eller andre
innestengte områder.
Merk: Noen, eller alle, av de følgende
sikkerhetsinstruksene for propandrevne enheter,
gjelder for din myggfelle. Du må la myggfellen
avkjøle seg i 5 minutter før du starter den på nytt.
Advarsel: Feil montering, justering, forandring,
service og vedlikehold kan forårsake personskader
eller materielle skader. Du må lese bruksanvisningen
nøye om hvordan du skal installere, bruke og
vedlikeholde myggfellen før du installerer eller
vedlikeholder apparatet.
Forsiktig: Gassregulatoren som er levert med
apparatet må brukes. Regulatorens utgående trykk er satt
til 28 cm vannsøyle. Minimum inngående gasstrykk er satt
til 28 cm vannsøyle fra regulatoren.
• Dette apparatet egner seg ikke til å bli brukt i campingbiler
og/eller båter.
• Du må slå av gassen til propanflasken når apparatet ikke
er i bruk.
• Alt utstyr som er beregnet for gass skal være CE-merket og ha
bruker- og vedlikeholdsveiledning på norsk. Installasjon må
utføres i henhold til gjeldende forskrifter om brannfarlig eller
trykksatt stoff.
• For å teste om gassen lekker kan du plassere såpevann rundt
koblingsstykket, regulatoren og gasslangen. Hvis det oppstår
såpebobler lekker det gass.
• Du må alltid kontrollere slangen før du tar den i bruk. Hvis det
er tydelige tegn på slitasje, eller det er sprekk i slangen, må du
bytte slangen før du begynner å bruke den. Den nye slangen
må være anbefalt av fabrikanten.
• Myggfellen er utstyrt med en innvendig gnisttenner.
Hvis du ikke følger startprosedyren kan det resultere i at

dokumentert kompetanse (du kan finne serviceforhandlere ved
å gå til vår webside www.mosquitomagnet.com).
Varmeapparatet bør alltid kontrolleres før det tas i bruk, og en
montør med dokumentert kompetanse bør inspisere apparatet
minst en gang per år. Det kan være nødvendig at du rengjør
apparatet oftere. Det er ytterst viktig at du holder
reguleringsenheten, brennere og de sirkulerende luftveiene på
varmeapparatet rene.
Barn og voksne må være obs på farlige
høye overflatetemperaturer. Hold
