Please note before installing
1.
Please prominently attach the included yellow warning sticker (3) in the engine compartment (e.g. on the air filter
housing). Attach the battery change reminder sticker (4) in a prominent place (e.g. in the vehicle’s service book).
2.
The unit is largely maintenance-free. Prolonged use may lead to contamination of the contact plates, which can
cause the high voltage to break down (function control LED shuts off).
Corrective measure
: Open the slide contact (the device will turn itself off), wait approx. 2–3 minutes, then clean/
reattach the plates (using cable ties) and close the slide contact again. Carefully check that the stainless steel
contact plates (2) are correctly installed in order to avoid a short circuit, for example due to current leakage or
the plus stainless steel contact plate (marked with a yellow sticker) coming into contact with an earthed part.
3.
It takes several seconds for the voltage to build up after the device is switched on. Once sufficient voltage is
available, the
red
function control LED will begin to blink.
Caution!
Please dispose of used batteries safely.

Martens mark their territory with scent marks. Before fitting the device, the area to be protected – i.e. the engine com-
partment, underbody and wheel housing – must be thoroughly cleaned. We recommend using our
STOP&GO odour
remover (item code 07503)
. It is also advisable to neutralise the parking area by cleaning it.
All units are checked prior to being dispatched.
Please check again before installing
. To do this, remove the battery seal.
The LED will briefly light up while the high voltage is building. On opening the slide contact, the device switches itself off
and the high voltage is interrupted. Movement or vibration of the control device (e.g. running engine) causes a sensor to
automatically switch off the device. If the function check is successful but voltage fails to build up after installation, an
installation error has occurred (see trouble shooting).
How the device works:
This device works according to the electric fence principle to repel martens from the engine compartment. Six double
stainless steel contact plates installed in the engine compartment provide a safe but effective electric shock when
touched. The panic protection control gives the animal enough time to flee before the capacitor is recharged, thereby
avoiding any serious harm to the marten due to permanent electric shocks. Ultrasonic waves in the frequency range of
animal fear and warning cries signal extreme danger to the marten. The device features frequency modulation in order
to prevent habituation.
Also protects your engine compartment from rodents and raccoons
.
Install the
device, including the speaker housing, in the upper third of the engine compartment
so that the area of
diffusion of the ultrasonic speaker is as large as possible and the device is protected from excessive heat, water and dirt.
We recommend positioning the device so that the area of diffusion is directed downwards from above. For clarification:
Imagine the area of diffusion is the beam of a torch, which needs to illuminate the largest area possible. We recommend
using the optional mounting bracket (item code 07599).
Lay the flat, two-core
high-voltage cable
so that it remains unaffected by other components and functions in the engine
compartment. In particular, avoid sources of intense heat such as exhaust systems etc. Clip the
stainless steel contact
plates
(2) successively along the high-voltage cable to the desired positions
in the upper third of the engine compart-
ment
. Assemble the high-voltage cable with the flattened side under both guide steps at the base of the contact plates.
Make sure that the other side of the high-voltage cable is laid closely on the cable wall. Secure and connect the contact
plates to the cable core by pressing the plates together with the black base on the cable. If you hear a click, this means
that a connection has been established between the contact plate/insulation-displacement connector and the high-vol-
tage cable. Mechanically secure the contact plates (using the fastening eyes/tunnel on the base) and the high-voltage
cable using cable ties. Ensure a safety clearance of at least 10 mm from other live parts. For non-standard sized vehicles,
such as SUVs, mobile homes and vans, we recommend that the six included stainless steel contact plates be supplemen-
ted with additional contact plates as needed (expansion set item code 07504) as well as an extension of the high-voltage
cable (extension cable item code 07745), if necessary.
Once the high-voltage device has been installed, the slide contact fully pushed in and the battery seal removed, the LED
will blink once briefly. High voltage starts to build up once the device is completely still. High voltage is achieved after
ca. 30 seconds and indicated by a regular blinking of the LED. If the LED blinks quickly for a few seconds and then stops
altogether, this means the sensor has detected vibration or movement and has switched off the device.
We recommend installing the device, including the stainless steel contact plates, in the upper third of the engine com-
partment since martens, due to their burrowing behaviour, instinctively make their way up through the engine cavity.
Moreover, this facilitates installation and ensures that all of the components are better protected from dirt. Caution: The
plus stainless steel
contact plate
(marked with a yellow sticker) must not touch any earthed parts.
