Solar animal repeller PTUS 1 A1

Introduction

We congratulate you on the purchase of your new product. You

have chosen a high quality product. The instructions for use are part

of the product. They contain important information concerning safety,

use and disposal. Before using the product, please familiarise your-

self with all of the safety information and instructions for use. Only

7 GB/IE/NI

use the product as described and for the speciﬁed applications. If

you pass the product on to anyone else, please ensure that you

also pass on all the documentation with it.

Intended use

This product is intended for use as an animal repellant, through the

use of high frequency tones and / or ﬂashing light. Animals, which

are under species protection, e.g. the mole, must not be caught,

injured or killed. Any use of the product for other or additional

purposes is considered improper use. No claims can be made for

problems cause by improper use or failure to comply with the op-

erational and safety instructions included in the operational manual.

The product is not intended for commercial use.

Mechanism

The product registers the movement of animals that move in the de-

tection range of the motion sensor. As soon as an animal is

registered, the product produces high frequency tones, which are

uncomfortable for animals. As diﬀerent animals can have diﬀerent

hearing ranges, the frequency of the signal can be adjusted. Noc-

turnal animals can also trigger an automatic ﬂashing light. To be

able to repel lots of diﬀerent animals, you can adjust the settings

to combine any of the signal frequencies with the ﬂashing light.

8 GB/IE/NI

WARNING: Frequencies from 16 Hz to a maximum of 20 kHz

can generally be heard by humans. However, with increasing age,

human‘s ability to hear higher frequencies is reduced. You should

work on the assumption the programmes 1, 2 and 5 release

frequencies, which can be heard by humans.

Thus you should set up the product so that it is out of the hearing

range of humans.

Note: The product will not aﬀect any electronic equipment, in-

cluding pacemakers, garage door openers, remote controls and

such like.

Before use

Note: Remove all packaging materials from the product.

Charging the rechargeable battery

The rechargeable battery is delivered fully charged. In direct

sunlight the rechargeable battery is charged by the built-in solar

panel 8. It can also be charged using the enclosed USB charg-

ing cable 11 .

13 GB/IE/NI

Charging the rechargeable battery with the solar panel

The product‘s solar panel 8 converts sunlight into electrical energy

and stores it in the rechargeable battery.

To ensure optimal rechargeable battery charging, position the

product in a place, in which the solar panel 8 is exposed to

direct sunlight. To fully charge unloaded battery, the solar

panel 8 must be exposed to at least 8 hours of direct sunlight.

Note: The product is not working under 0°C and over 45°C

according the battery protection.

Charging the rechargeable battery with the USB

charging cable

Especially during the darker times of the year, depending on the

length of time for which the product is activated each day, you

may ﬁnd that sunlight does not provide the rechargeable battery

with enough energy. However, you can charge the rechargeable

battery using the enclosed USB charging cable 11 and your com-

puter or a standard USB adapter (not included in delivery). Th

is

charging process must be carried out indoors because the spla

sh pro-

tection no longer works when the USB socket 10 is open.

The charge level of the rechargeable battery is shown on the prod-

uct on the charge indicator 6 (a red LED on the motion sensor 5 )

when it is switched on:

14 GB/IE/NI

Red LED is fast ﬂashing: The rechargeable battery needs to

charge.

Not any LED and sound eﬀect response: the rechargeable

battery voltage is very low, it must be charged immediately.

Red LED is slow ﬂashing: The rechargeable battery is in the

charging status.

Red LED is illuminated: The rechargeable battery is fully

charged.

Switch the frequency controller 3 to Programme “0” during

the charging process to prevent disturbances from visual or

acoustic signals.

Remove the rubber plugs from the USB socket 10 .

Plug the USB charging cable

11

with USB-C plug into the USB

socket

10

and connect the USB plug of the USB charging cable

11

to your computer with a USB port. Alternatively, you can use

a USB adapter, which can be bought from a retailer.

Depending on the current charging state of the battery, charg-

ing takes approx. 5–10 hours. During the charging process,

the charge indicator 6 ﬂashes.

When the rechargeable battery is fully charged, the charge

indicator 6 will illuminate.
