5. Kurulum

5.1 Montaj

1. Tüm bileşenleri dikkatlice ambalajından çıkarın.
2. Attach the extension tube to the pointed ground stake.
3. Connect the main repeller head unit to the top of the extension tube. Ensure a secure fit.

5.2 Initial Charge & Battery Installation

The device uses rechargeable Ni-MH batteries. These may be pre-installed or require installation.

1. Locate the battery compartment on the underside of the repeller head unit.
2. If batteries are not installed, insert the Ni-MH batteries (AA, 1.2V) according to the polarity markings (+/-).
3. Pil bölmesini sıkıca kapatın.
4. Before first use, place the repeller in direct sunlight for at least 8 hours to allow the batteries to fully charge. The solar panel will charge the batteries automatically during daylight.

5.3 Yerleştirme

Optimal placement is crucial for effective operation:

• Bahçenizde veya dış mekanınızda, ample direct sunlight throughout the day to ensure continuous battery charging.
• Insert the assembled repeller firmly into the ground. Ensure the repeller head is positioned so the motion sensor has a clear line of sight to the area you wish to protect.
• The device has a detection range of 5-8 meters and a 120° angle, covering approximately 40 m². For larger areas, multiple units may be required.
• Avoid placing the device behind large obstacles (walls, dense bushes) that could block the motion sensor or solar panel.
• While splash-proof, protect the device from permanent and heavy rain by placing it under a slight overhang if possible, or consider temporary relocation during severe weather.

6. Kullanım Talimatları

6.1 Açma/Kapatma

Locate the ON/OFF switch on the device. Slide it to the "ON" position to activate the repeller. Slide to "OFF" to deactivate.

6.2 Frekans Ayarlaması

The repeller offers two frequency modes (13 KHz – 60 KHz) to target different animal species. Adjust the frequency dial according to the animals you wish to deter:

• Mode 1 (Lower Frequency): Generally effective for larger animals like dogs, foxes, raccoons.
• Mode 2 (Higher Frequency): More effective for smaller animals such as cats, mice, and martens.

Experiment with both modes to find the most effective setting for your specific pest problem.

6.3 Motion Sensor Sensitivity

The sensitivity dial allows you to adjust the detection range of the motion sensor:

• Turn the dial clockwise to increase sensitivity and detection range (up to 8 meters).
• Turn the dial counter-clockwise to decrease sensitivity and detection range.

Adjust sensitivity to avoid false triggers from small movements (e.g., leaves blowing) or to focus on a specific area.

6.4 LED Işık

The device is equipped with 4 LED lights and a twilight sensor. At night, when motion is detected, these LEDs will flash, providing an additional visual deterrent to complement the ultrasonic sounds.

7. Bakım

7.1 Temizlik

• Güneş panelini düzenli olarak yumuşak bir bezle silin.amp Toz, kir veya döküntüleri temizlemek için bir bez kullanın. Temiz bir güneş paneli, verimli şarj sağlar.
• Keep the motion sensor lens clear of obstructions for optimal detection.
• Cihazın hiçbir parçasında aşındırıcı temizleyiciler veya çözücüler kullanmayın.

7.2 Pil Değişimi

The Ni-MH batteries are replaceable. If the device's performance diminishes over time, or if it stops working despite adequate sunlight, the batteries may need replacement.

1. Cihazı KAPATIN.
2. Pil bölmesini açın.
3. Remove the old Ni-MH (AA, 1.2V) batteries and dispose of them responsibly according to local regulations.
4. Insert new, fully charged Ni-MH (AA, 1.2V) batteries, ensuring correct polarity.
5. Pil bölmesini sıkıca kapatın.
6. Allow the device to charge in direct sunlight for a full day before resuming normal operation.

7.3 Hava Koruması

Although the device is splash-proof, it is recommended to protect it from extreme weather conditions such as heavy rain, hail, or prolonged freezing temperatures to extend its lifespan.
