GB - SuperFish Bird & Cat Protector
Motion activated ultrasonic pond protector. Detecting unwanted visitors, harmlessly
chasing them away with an alarm, ultrasonic sound and/or flashing lights (LED).
Safety
• Read this manual carefully before usage.
• Suitable for outdoor usage.
• Place the stand firmly in the ground next to the pond to prevent the Protector from falling into the pond. Make
sure the Protector is high enough above the ground to prevent flooding.
• This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instructions
concerning the use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved. Children may not play
with the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be done by children without supervision.
Batteries (charge before usage)
• Place the 3 rechargeable NiMH batteries in the compartment at back. Loosen the 4 screws to open the
compartment, insert the batteries correctly and close the compartiment (
fig. A
).
• Charge the batteries before the first usage with the supplied USB cable (it can be connected to a 5 volt USB
charger), the connector is located at the bottom (
fig. B
). During charging, a red light will blink in the PIR sensor,
when the batteries are fully charged the red light is on continuously. The Protector is protected against overload.
• Recharging the batteries takes place via the solar panel at the top of the Protector. If the batteries are not
sufficiently recharged (due to lack of sunlight) a red light will flash in the PIR sensor. The batteries must then be
recharged via the USB cable. Set the alarm function to position 0 (off) when charging. Charging the batteries
with USB cable should always be done indoor.
Installation
• Determine the location for the Protector near your pond, taking into account the range of the PIR sensor and the
alarm.
• Assemble both parts of the stand and attach the stand to bottom of the Bird & Cat Protector (
fig. C
). You can
also hang the Protector on the suspension eye at the back.
• Aim the sensor at the area you want to protect and insert the stand halfway into the ground, holding only the
stand (not the sensor) (
fig. D
).
• The PIR sensor (Infrared motion detector) has a maximum range of 8 metres and a radius of 120°. With the left
rotary knob (Sens.) you can set the range and sensitivity (
fig. E
). To detect small animals and the maximum
range, turn the knob all the way to the right.
• Select an alarm function with the right knob (Freq.) and test the operation by moving your hand in front of the
sensor. The light will flash and depending on the setting, sound will be heard.
Alarm functions (Freq.)
0 = Off
1 = Loud sound alarm (4 kHz/110 dB)

3 = Ultrasonic sound (23.5 kHz - 28.0 kHz)
4 = Flash lights
