Repelling An Animal
Setting and Testing the Sensitivity
Turn Sensitivity Knob to Low (This gives you a starting point to adjust from.)
•
With your water OFF, stand in front of the Spray Away at the furthest distance
•
you want to detect. (Max. is 35 feet away from unit.)
• Wait 10 seconds (remain still as it calibrates). See Important Note below.
Staying the same distance from the unit, walk side to side (A) to test if the unit
•
can see you (the Indicator Light will blink if it sees you (B).)
If Spray Away® does not see you, select the next highest sensitivity level.
•
Once it sees you, your desired coverage area has been set correctly.
•
IMPORTANT NOTE: Spray Away® does not sense for 10 seconds after an
activation. This means when testing the coverage area you will need to wait
(remain still) for 10 seconds before moving again.

Adjusting Sensitivity
Occasionally, sensitivity may need to be adjusted based on outside temperature.
When the weather is warmer, higher sensitivity levels are required. When the
weather is cooler, lower sensitivity levels are required. Use charts below as a guide.
Note: Depending on the animal you're trying to
deter and your surroundings it may take several
adjustments to identify the best sensitivity setting.
