Setting up your new repeller in 2 easy steps:
1.
You’ll need a small Philips screwdriver.
On the back of the unit is the battery panel
which has 4 small screws. Undo the panel
and insert 3x AA batteries (not included).
Replace the panel and screws.
2. Take the two pieces of the ground stake
and slot them together. Insert the stake
into the bottom of the repeller. You may
find it a little hard to connect the spike, this
is normal, please do not use excessive
force or hammer the top of the unit.
That’s it, all that’s left to do now is turn the unit on:
The on/off switch is located at the base of the unit.
Move this to the ‘on’ position and as you do this you
should see a red light blink once through the PIR
sensor.
WHERE TO PLACE THE DEVICE
1.
Ultrasonic waves travel in straight lines.
Think of it as ‘line of sight’. Solid objects
significantly impact on the soundwaves as
they cannot pass through physical objects.
For best placement, try to have the device
pointing to where the animals enter your
garden, or at least very commonly trodden
areas.
2.
The unit can be hung via the hole on the
back of the unit, or staked into the ground.
If you are positioning the unit in the
ground, carefully fix the ground spike/stake
to the unit and gently push the unit into the
ground at the place that seems most
favorable. You can always try different
locations until you find what works best for
your garden.
3.
When selecting the installation location,
please choose suitable terrain to ensure
any par
t of the unit won’t become
submerged during periods of heavy rain
and that the unit isn’t obstructed.
4.
It’s important to maximize battery life by
avoiding aiming the unit at areas of regular
movement (such as a public footpath).
SPECIFICATIONS
1. Powered by 3xAA size batteries (not
included).
2. Sweeping frequency from 17-27 KHz.
3. Infrared sensor angle: 128 degrees
4. Detection range: 8 to 9 meters depending
on animal size.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The ultrasonic needs to be quite powerful to work
efficiently; it may well affect very young children and
babies as the bones in their ears haven’t hardened
off or fully developed. If you have concerns about
babies or very young children, we suggest turning
the unit off whilst they’re out in the garden.
You may find that the cat does not seem bothered
by the repeller during the first few days or even
weeks of use. This is usually because the cat has
become used to its behavioral pattern of visiting the
area and will take some convincing to change.
However given time you should find that the repeller
is too unbearable for the cat and it will stop visiting.
This is why we ask you use the device for 30 days
in order for our Effectiveness Guarantee* to be
valid.
*See side of box for details on the Effectiveness
Guarantee.
