Setup Guide
Battery Installation
- Locate the battery compartment cover on the back of the unit.
- Slide or unclip the cover to open it.
- Insert 6 AAA batteries, ensuring correct polarity (+/-) as indicated inside the compartment.
- Close the battery compartment cover securely.
Placement
For optimal effectiveness, place the unit in an area where birds are a nuisance, ensuring the ultrasonic emitter faces the target area. Consider the following:
- Effective Range: The ultrasonic waves have an effective range of up to 40m2, with a direct line distance of approximately 4-5m.
- Obstructions: Ensure there are no large obstructions (walls, dense foliage) directly in front of the unit that could block the ultrasonic waves.
- Mounting: The unit can be placed on a flat surface or hung using the integrated hanging points.
- Water Exposure: While waterproof (IP54), avoid submerging the unit or exposing it to heavy, continuous rain or snow.

Operating Instructions
Once batteries are installed and the unit is placed, switch the device to the "ON" position. The unit will begin emitting ultrasonic waves. The red indicator light will flash in sync with the ultrasonic emission, which is designed to be difficult for humans to hear.
- Variable Frequency: The device automatically changes the ultrasonic frequency to prevent birds from becoming accustomed to the sound, ensuring long-term effectiveness.
- Emission Cycle: The unit operates in a cycle of 5 seconds of emission followed by a 25-second pause. The device remains active during the pause period.
- Effectiveness Timeline: It may take approximately 2-3 weeks for birds to feel uncomfortable and begin to leave the area. Consistent operation is key to achieving desired results and preventing their return.

Maintenance
- Cleaning: Periodically wipe the unit with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust or dirt. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Battery Replacement: Replace batteries when the red indicator light no longer flashes or the ultrasonic emission becomes weak. Battery life is approximately 6-12 months depending on usage and battery quality.
- Storage: If storing the unit for an extended period, remove the batteries to prevent leakage and store in a cool, dry place.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Unit not turning on / No indicator light | Dead or incorrectly installed batteries. | Check battery polarity. Replace all 6 AAA batteries with new ones. |
| Birds are not leaving / Effectiveness is low | Incorrect placement; Obstructions blocking waves; Birds are accustomed to a fixed frequency (unlikely with this model); Unit malfunction. | Relocate the unit to a more open area facing the target. Ensure no large objects block the ultrasonic path. Allow 2-3 weeks for full effect. If issues persist, contact customer support. |
| Red light flashes but no audible sound | This is normal operation. | The ultrasonic sound is designed to be inaudible or barely audible to humans. The flashing light indicates proper function. |
