Dear Customer
Thank you for purchasing the Solar Pest Repeller.
Activated by movement up to 8m and within a 110 degree range, the Passive
Infra-Red Solar Pest Repeller has been designed specically to scare away
unwelcome intruders with a powerful blast of harmless ultra-sound and a
piercing bright ashing LED light. Whether it’s a neighbour’s dog or cat, a fox,
squirrels, rabbits, rats or birds, just scare them off instead of using harmful
chemicals, traps or poison. Features include; an adjustable setting to target
either small or large animals, a dial to adjust the frequency setting so as to
target specic animal types, a ashing LED light and a Universal program, it’s
on guard 24/7, powered by three AA rechargeable batteries, recharged free
through its solar panel, or by mains through its USB port. Either wall mount or
stake into the ground. Measuring H13xW8xD5cm. Stake measures 27cm high.
INSTALLING THE BATTERIES
The battery compartment is on the back of the unit, and can be accessed by
removing the 4 retaining screws. If they have not already been pre-inserted,
place the batteries (provided) in to the compartment, ensuring that the polarity
of the batteries matches that of the + and – symbols embossed in each of the
battery spaces. Close the battery compartment and secure with the 4 screws
provided. BEFORE FIRST TIME USE THE BATTERIES WILL NEED TO BE
CHARGED EITHER BY SOLAR POWER OR BY USB, place in full daylight for
8 hours or by using the USB cable provided to charge from a computer USB
port to the socket on the base of the Pest Repeller.
In normal conditions just keeping this product in full daylight during the day will
be enough to keep this product fully charged, but additional charging using the
USB cable provided may be necessary during winter months and after several
days of overcast weather. This device has a built-in low battery warning, after
the item is switched on (turning the Freq knob up from 0) a red LED will ash
briey to show the batteries have power, but if you notice that while unit is
switched on the red LED ashes continuously to signify that the batteries are
low and need charging.

If you are charging by solar power you may wish to reconsider the position of
the Solar Pest Repeller so that is in a better position for sunlight. Alternatively
customers can use the provided USB cable plugged in to the DC socket on the
base of the Solar Pest Repellers and a USB socket on a computer to charge
the batteries, when it is fully charged the red LED will stay on permanently,
but this will go out when it is unplugged from the USB. This device has built in
over charge protection, so that it cannot be overcharged in both solar and USB
charging modes.
OPERATION
When the motion sensor detects movement a strong ultrasonic sound is
produced to frighten animals, but that is inaudible to humans so as not to cause
a nuisance. For best performance the frequency knob should be switched to
the animal you wish to deter.
“FREQ” Control Position:
- 0: This is the off position
- 1: 13.5kHz-17.5kHz Repels animals such as mice, small rodents, ...
- 2: 15.5kHz-19.5kHz Repels animals such as large dogs, foxes ...
- 3: 19.5kHz-23.5kHz Repels animals such as small dogs, cats, birds ...
- 4: No ultrasonic sound is produced, instead the LEDs ash to scare away
unwanted animals
- 5: The unit produces a sound that sweeps up and down the frequencies and
the LED’s ash, it should be noted that selecting one of the other frequency
settings above will be more effective when dealing with specic animal type.
“SENS” Control – This adjusting sensitivity of the motion sensor. By turning the
knob clockwise the area scanned is increased. To repel small animals, such as
mice, ‘Sens’ should be turned fully clockwise.
WHERE TO PLACE THE DEVICE
The Solar Pest Repeller should be positioned in a sunny area, with the front of
the repeller facing the area of detection / protection.
