M15
The STARTER marten-repellent device
Simple, fast and affordable. The M15 is the compact defence strategy against marten bites to your car. It emits shrill, ultra-high tones to make the marten turn and run. The mini power pack uses only a moderate amount of power. The M15 requires less than 0.0012 amps to create an effective ‘ultrasound wall’ against the stone marten. When the vehicle is parked, the little sentry switches on automatically and scares the marten away with high tone pulses.

Installation
The marten-repellent device should be installed in the engine compartment in such a way that contamination from splashing water is prevented, but the marten’s entry area is filled with sound waves. There should be plenty of space left in front of the device for the sound to spread as far as possible throughout the engine compartment. If the engine compartment is very angular, it may be necessary to install several devices. Do not install directly on the exhaust manifold or directly next to the engine due to excessive heat! Please see the Installation PDF file for further installation instructions.
