electrical parts eliminates any possible danger. Utmost care must be taken that the metal surfaces of the plates
cannot become very dirty or be constantly exposed to moisture. This can produce leakage current which can lead to
a short-circuit and breakdown of the high voltage. Normal atmospheric humidity is no cause for concern.
NOTE: If your vehicle will not be used for a longer period of time, please be sure to disconnect the device
during this period.
5. Important safety notice
NOTE:
When carrying out service work in the engine compartment, the 1A miniature in-line fuse should
be removed from the holder in the cable. After the removal of the fuse the high voltage on the
plates dissipates within max. 60 seconds.
Important Note!
Electrical connection by CAN/BUS System. Vehicles with CAN/BUS system
should be connected to the gray wire of the fuse terminal 15.
As an additional safety measure, one of the plates may be shorted to earth with a piece of isolated wire to
deliberately discharge the system.
For safety, before performing any service work within the engine compartment, the device should be switched off (by
removing the fuse or using the built-in switch). Once switched off, it takes at least 3 minutes until the high voltage is
removed from the plate. As an additional safety feature, one of the plates is connected with an insulated wire jumper
to ground, to enable discharge.
6. General notes
If your vehicle has already been attacked by martens, the animals have most probably left scent-marks to mark their
territory. These scents must be removed before mounting the marten shocker device, since other martens may enter
the engine compartment even when it is protected. The best way to do this is to have the engine washed thoroughly.
Besides this, the animals often leave scent-marks under the vehicle, e.g. on the parking space. It is therefore
recommended to remove these marks with a brush and detergent so that the marten does not have any reason to
defend its territory. The high voltage on the plates is automatically raised and lowered between 300 and 700 V by the
device. On account of the electrical control circuit, the LED control lamp may glow brighter or dimmer. This has no
effect whatsoever on the function.
