5. P utting into operation
Set the switch to "OFF". Expose the solar panel to the sun for
approx. 2 days so that the battery can be fully charged before
the device is being put into operation. Then set the swtich to
"ON" to check if the device is functioning. It should emit an
audible tone. Set the unit into the ground until it sticks out
minimally. If the soil is dense, you may have to dig a hole to
be able to set it. After setting the device, make sure to press
on the soil in order to make it as dense as it was before. The
denser the soil, the better the tones will transmit.
Note: The grass around the solar panel should be kept as
short as possible, as tall grass could decrease the load of the
sun. If the unit is out of operation for a long time, please note
to set the switch to „OFF" so you can be sure that the batter-
ies will not discharge completely.

Please don't insert the device directly into the mole hole and take
it out of the ground or turn it off sometimes to prevent habituation
effects.
6. N otes on operation
To successfully and permanently repel a mole or vole from
your garden, there are a few instructions for use that have
to be observed:
The mole should not be 'encircled' by the mole repellent. To
avoid this, start from the house and move in the direction of
the plot boundary to repel the mole. To do this, place one or
preferably several mole repellents in the ground near to the
house wall – and, most importantly, before the first molehill.
Never bore through a molehill with the mole repellent.
Reposition the device as required, but in general every 2 – 3
weeks, nearer to the boundary of the plot of land (away
from the house). The time should be set to coincide with the
'movement' of the molehills. If the molehills are still in the
same position after 4 weeks, please check whether the device
is actually operational (the transmitted tone can be heard). If
