ThermaCELL Olive Green Mosquito Repellent Appliance

ThermaCELL Mosquito Repellent Appliance Instructions

1. Remove one ThermaCELL Mosquito Repellent mat from wrapper. One mat lasts up to 4 hours. Mat turns from pale blue to white when active ingredient has been exhausted.


2. Make sure the 'On/Off' switch on the appliance is in the 'Off' position. Insert the mat under the appliance's black grill. To change mats, slide the 'On/Off' switch to 'Off' and allow the appliance to cool completely. Push the used mat out by inserting a fresh one.


3. Remove the appliance cover and butane cartridge cap.


4. Screw the cartridge into the opening of the appliance. Make sure the cartridge is fully inserted by turning it clockwise until it stops. Replace the appliance cover. One ThermaCell butane cartridge lasts 8 to 12 hours. If your appliance fails to heat, it may be out of fuel. Check the fuel level by holding the appliance vertically and looking at the fuel gauge on the bottom. You can see the amount of butane in the cartridge. Replace if empty.


5. Slide the 'On/Off'switch to the 'On' position; the butane gas will begin to flow.


6. Wait approximately 5-10 seconds then depress the start button three to five times in rapid succession.


7. To verify the appliance is operating, pick it up and check the lens on the end of the appliance. The light at the end of the appliance glows when the appliance is heating. If the light is not glowing, check to make sure the appliance is 'On' and the cartridge is completely screwed into place; then once again depress the start button three to five times in rapid succession. Check to make sure the light is glowing.


8. Place the appliance on a flat, stable area with the grill side facing up. Do not touch the grill; it will be hot after a couple of minutes. When finished using the appliance, slide the 'On/Off' switch to the 'Off' position, and allow the appliance to cool completely. Appliance is now ready for storage.

  Best mosquito repellent I have used. I loaned my unit to a couple avid fishing folks and now they love fishing even more!

  The most effective mosquito repellant I have ever owned. I bought quite a few of these units so that visitors who come can enjoy God's beautiful creation and not get eaten alive. I am hoping ThermaCell can develop a smaller but not less effective unit. I am hoping stronger lasting mats can be developed.

  I've got both the ThermaCell lantern and the hand-held unit and love them both! I use the lantern around our patio and in the evening the light is great to add just enough for our gathering. The hand-held unit is great to take along on the boat or when traveling. These things really work!

  I have the hand held olive green unit and I absolutely love it. I use in every situation whether I am camping, enjoying an evening in the back yard, or spending time around my horse. It works well in all three of these situations but I am most impressed with it when I use it around my horse. Last week I went over to ride and the mosquitoes and files were just terrible. They were literally swarming us. I did not want to use the Horses fly spray on her because it is not good to get on me because of the chemicals and I was brushing her and riding her. I remembered that I had the ThermaCell in the car and I used it. It was amazing how you could literally see the bugs hover in a huge circle around the horse and I but not come close to us at all. I also clip this to my belt when I ride and get the same results. I like it also because there is no odor or noise!
