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).
2. The unit is largely maintenance-free. Prolonged use may lead to contamination of the stainless steel
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 stainless steel contact 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 (at 5-second intervals).
Caution overvoltage protection!
When jump-starting, welding or quick-charging, please switch off the device!

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
negative battery cables directly to the car battery. When the device is operated for the first time, the red function control
LED should begin to blink or remain on within no more than 3 minutes. Once the device has been switched off, the stain-
less steel contact plates will retain a high-voltage charge for up to 3 minutes, which means that you should not touch
them. Alternatively, you can intentionally discharge the plates, for example using an insulated screwdriver. 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 featuring insulation-displacement contact technology (CLIP) are installed in the engine
compartment and 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.

Please remove the fuse from the holder during installation. Install 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).
The positive battery cable with a fuse is connected to the unswitched terminal 30 or directly to a 12 V plus connection
(after or at the vehicle's fuse box) on the car battery. Connect the earth cable (–) to an original earthing point on the
vehicle body.
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 device has been installed and the slide contact fully pushed in, 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.
