WHEN USING ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES, BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
SHOULD ALWAYS BE FOLLOWED TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC
SHOCK AND INJURY TO PERSONS, INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING:
1. Check the household voltage before operating to ensure it matches the unit’s
rated specification.
2. NEVER place Mosquito Sentry in an area where it is accessible to children. NEVER
use Mosquito Sentry in a closed room, the unit is designed for outside areas,
covered patios or open air buildings only. Do not inhale repellent directly from
repellent outlet.
3. DO NOT add material from repellent outlet directly, it will damage the unit.
4. Do not allow children to play with any product packaging, such as plastic bags.
5. To avoid fire hazard, NEVER put the cord under rugs or near heat registers,
radiators, stoves or heaters.
6. DO NOT place Mosquito Sentry near heat sources such as stoves, radiators and
heaters. The Mosquito Sentry should be at least 8 inches away from the wall for
best results.
7. Do not attempt to refill Mosquito Sentry without first unplugging the unit from
its electrical outlet.
8. DO NOT operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug after the appliance
malfunctions, or if it has been dropped or damaged in any manner. Return
appliance to manufacturer for examination, electrical or mechanical adjustment,
or repair.
9. Always place Mosquito Sentry on a firm, flat, level surface.
10. DO NOT allow the repellent outlet to directly face the wall.
11. NEVER tilt, move or attempt to empty unit while it is operating.
12. Shut off and unplug before removing the reservoir and moving the unit.
13. DO NOT attempt to repair or adjust any electrical or mechanical functions on this
unit. Doing so will void your warranty. The inside of the unit contains no user
serviceable parts. All servicing should be performed by qualified personnel only.
14. Do not plug in the cord with wet hands, electric shock could result.
15. NEVER use detergents, gasoline, glass cleaner, furniture polish, paint thinner or
other household solvents to clean any part of the Mosquito Sentry.

CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION
WARNING: Use only 100% natural Mosquito Sentry Repellent to fill the unit.
Filling the unit with any other product may result in serious injury or death.
Note: This is an electrical appliance and requires attention when in use.

CORD AND PLUG INSTALLATION SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The length of cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce the hazards of
becoming tangled in or tripping over a longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary, an
approved extension cord may be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must
be equal to or greater than the rating of the Mosquito Sentry. Care must be taken to
arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop
where it can be pulled on by children or accidentally tripped over.
