Important Safety Information
You must comply with all safety information and operating
instructions when using this product. Please read all Safety and
Hazard Information outlined in this manual.
Failure to comply could result in personal injury, damage to
property, or re hazards.
5
PHYSICAL OR CHEMICAL HAZARDS
Power outlets with poor electrical connections can become dangerously
overheated and may result in severe injury, damage to property, or re.
High-power appliances require more electric current than most household items.
Old or high-use outlets can have poor or loose connections. The high current
required by this product, combined with a poor electrical connection can cause
outlets to overheat and melt. It is important to make sure that any outlets used
with this product have strong electrical contact.
Follow the steps below for safe use of ANY high-power appliances:
1. Inspect outlet connection and contact strength.
Insert a standard, two-prong plug (without ground connection) into
the outlet. Ensure that both prong connections offer strong and equal
resistance when inserted. If the two-prong plug does not offer strong
resistance or one prong feels easier to insert than the other, this outlet
could be unsafe for high-power appliances. Have an electrician
inspect and/or replace the outlet before use.
2. Ensure that the outlet is no older than 15 years.
3. If you are unsure about an outlet, have an electrician inspect and/or
replace the outlet.
4. Inspect outlets and plugs after each use.

IMPORTANT: Extension Cords
Some extension cords are not adequate to carry the load of current drawn by
this ZappBug thermal unit without becoming dangerously overheated. If an
extension cord must be used, do not use a cord rated less than 1500 watts or 15
amps, and of a minimum size of 16 gauge. Only use an extension cord with the
UL seal. Use of an inadequate extension cord may result in overheating of the
extension cord or re.
IMPORTANT: Old Electrical Wiring and Outlets
Each ZappBug thermal unit will draw 12-15 amps of current (1500 Watts) and
must be run on circuits rated 15 amps and above only. Some old electrical
wiring and outlets may not be capable of sustaining these loads. If you are
unsure of the electrical wiring or outlets in your location, contact an electrician
before operating ZappBug or any other high-current products. Old or faulty
electrical wiring could lead to damage, injury, or re. If an electrical cord
appears deformed or feels hot to the touch, unplug it immediately and contact
ZappBug customer service.

• Failure to comply with the safety information presented by this manual may
result in severe injury and/or damage to property.
• Incorrect assembly or improper use may result in hazardous conditions.
Only assemble the ZappBug Room according to instructions in this manual.
• Do not block air intake or exhaust vents on the ZappBug thermal unit.
Obstructions of the intakeor exhaust vents can cause the ZappBug thermal

Hints & Tips
BED BUGS
• Researchers have found that bed bugs at all life stages die quickly at
temperatures at or above 120°F.
• Bed bug eggs are nearly translucent and incredibly difcult to detect.
• A best practice is to heat treat all items that may have been in the vicinity
of bed bugs even if no bed bugs are found.
• Bed bugs can survive for up to 18 months without feeding. It is critical that
all potentially infested items are heat treated or, alternatively, sealed and
stored for 18 months.
• Bed bugs can atten their bodies and slip into tiny cracks.
• Bed bugs are unable to climb smooth, nonporous surfaces like the lining of
the ZappBug Room.
THE ZAPPBUG ROOM
• Always use provided support blocks and/or net to ensure maximum air
circulation around your belongings. If your belongings are densely packed
together it will take signicantly more time for them to reach bed bug
killing temperatures.
• Make sure to turn the ZappBug thermal unit on before placing potentially
infested items inside the ZappBug Room.
• Only use indoors with an ambient room temperature at or above 70°F. The
ZappBug thermal unit works by adding heat to the air from the room in
which it is located. If the ambient temperature is below 70°F, the ZappBug
Room may not reach bed bug killing temperatures.
• Always monitor the temperature inside the ZappBug Room with the
thermometer and thermometer probe provided.
• Do not place the ZappBug Room directly on cold oors such as
concrete. Always place the ZappBug Room on surfaces at or above 70°F.
