Verbrauchte Batterien sind über die Sammelstellen für Batterien zu entsorgen (nicht in den Hausmüll, nicht in Feuer legen). Die
meisten Firmen, die Batterien verkaufen, nehmen auch alte Batterien zur Entsorgung an. Sollte das Gerät irgendwann einmal
entsorgt werden, geben Sie es bitte bei den Elektronikmüll-Entsorgungsstellen ab, wo auch andere elektronische Geräte wie
Fernseher und Audioanlagen zur Entsorgung angenommen werden (fragen Sie in Ihrem Stadt
–
oder Gemeindebüro nach)
Beachten Sie bitte, dass Ultraschalltöne für Tiere nur eine starke Belästigung darstellen und keinen körperlichen Schaden zufügen.
Unsere Geräte sind äußerst wirkungsvoll in der Abwehr von Mardern, dennoch können wir keine Garantie dafür übernehmen, dass in 100
% aller Fälle die Marder vertrieben werden!
EN: M8700 Marten Repelling Module
Waterproof ultrasconic module - Battery power for universal use
For carports, engine compartments, attics, campers, vehicle "hibernating" and much more
Repelling with ultrasonic sound
• Martens fin
d these sounds unpleasant and try to avoid them.
• The sounds pulsate (activate and deactivate), inhibiting any habituation effect
Real sinusoidal
ultrasonic sound
• Inaudible, as only 23kHz
• Higher effective noise pressure, over 105dB
Advantage - waterproof:
Up until now it was only possible to secure the access area to the engine compartment used by martens to a
certain degree, as the marten repelling modules had to be installed in the engine compartment in a manner that
protected them from dirt and water splashing. A protected installation location was also required when the
module was used in carports. Achievement of the IP 65 degree of protection means that the M8700 is now water
and dirt resistant.

Detailed description and installation instructions:
The module generates a very loud, pulsating and aggressive ultrasonic sound of approx. 23 kHz which is inaudible for most people,
but causes considerable stress to wild animals and is therefore avoided if possible. The module is powered by 2 x AA 1.5V
batteries (not included in delivery) which, depending on their quality, can last up to 12 months.
Prior to use:
Martens frequently defend their territory through biting, particularly where odour markings are left behind by other martens. It is
therefore imperative that the engine be washed prior to use of the module, or the special K&K 000300 odour marker remover be
used and, where necessary, the parking space cleaned with a mop and detergent.
Assembly instructions:
Please open the module with a screwdriver (unscrew the base plate). Insert the batteries into the integrated battery holders. The
LED under the loudspeaker flashes at approx. 6 second intervals when all the batteries have been inserted. The module is ready
for operation when the LED flashes. You can screw the base plate into position again and mount the module in the intended
location (using cable binders or screws). Ultrasonic sounds spread out like light (i.e. in a straight line), and shadows occur where
obstacles are present (no ultrasonic sound is heard behind obstacles). Ensure therefore that the desired ultrasonic emission area is
kept as free as possible when mounting the module.
When installing in the engine compartment:
The M8700 should be
mounted in the engine compartment so that the sonic emission dome radiates over the access openings used by the martens and
areas at risk from gnawing. Please ensure that space is available in front of the housing dome to allow the ultrasonic sound to
expand over as broad an area as possible. However, it should not be mounted directly adjacent to the exhaust manifold or engine,
due to the excessive heat in these locations.
Please note:
The module is extremely resistant to dirt, but a layer of dirt on the
domed loudspeaker membrane will impair the sound emission (the output is reduced by the dirt). The module should therefore be
fitted in a location where a thick layer of dirt cannot build up!
The function can be checked with the integrated LED. The batteries are probably flat if the LED no longer flashes. When mounting
the module under a caravan to protect it against mice, ensure that the grass is kept short (as the ultrasonic sound will not spread as
effectively otherwise).
