motion sensor will work. Turn the dial to match the approximate
distance you believe the pest will be away from the unit.

you are using the “Alarm Sensor” sound setting, skip ahead to Step 7.
Settings 0-4 will typically be audible to humans, while settings 5-7 should be inaudible.
Here’s a few of the more common settings:
•Squirrels/Chipmunks: Settings 3-5
•Raccoons: Settings 2-4
•Bats: Settings 6-7
•Insects/Bugs: Settings 1-4 will work but the sound will be audible. If you
would rather not hear the sound at all, use 5-7.
•*Setting #8 is for factory testing only and should not be used.
You may need to try several dial settings within the pest’s range before finding the
perfect one for your situation. You will have a chance to do this in Step 8.

these easy options:

seals, ledges, shelves, patios, and more.
•Mount the unit using the Mounting Holes on the Back Cover.
The most common places to mount the Guardian include fences,

Remote Control
The remote control allows you to manually activate the Guardian from up to 75 feet away. Keep in mind
that the Guardian must be turned on for the remote to work. The remote has two buttons: Alarm and Ultra.
Alarm Button – When pressed, the Guardian emits an audible alarm sound. This button is compatible with
the Guardian’s “Ultra Sensor” and “Alarm Sensor” sound settings. If instead the sound is set “Ultra
Constant”, the remote will not trigger the alarm sound.
Ultra Button – When pressed, this button will override the current sound setting on the Guardian and
cause it to emit ultrasonic sound.
Note: If the Guardian is set to “Ultra Sensor” and is sounding off, the first time you push any button on the
remote it will stop the “Ultra Sensor” sound. The second time you push the button, it will activate the
Audible Alarm. To stop the alarm sound, simply push the Ultra button again.
Using the Guardian as a Personal Safety Device
The Guardian™ can be used as a personal safety device to ward off intruders (humans and pests) from your property. We recommend
using the Strobe Light on the “Sensor” setting and the Sound on the “Alarm Sensor” setting so that when motion is detected, the unit
will activate both the Strobe Light and the Alarm Sound. Place the Guardian™ near doors, hallways or anywhere else in your home
where you would like to detect motion.
