OPERATING
Fitting the Collar
The collar strap should be adjusted so that
the contact points are held firmly against the
dog’s skin. If the collar is too loose, irritation
may result from the contact points rubbing
against the skin.
If the dog has a heavy coat, move the
receiver up and down to work the contact points
down into the coat.
ATTENTION!
Avoid having the dog wear the collar with
the contact points in the same place for more
than two hours at a time. Leaving the points
on the same spot for extended periods of time
can cause skin irritation. If the dog is to wear
the e-collar for long periods, occasionally
reposition the collar so that the contact points
are moved to a different spot on the dog’s
neck.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 2. Watch the test light as you push the “Nick”
button on the transmitter. It should light for
just a moment.
3. Watch the test light as you push the
“Constant” button on the transmitter. It
should glow brightly. As a safety feature,
the collar receiver will automatically shut
off stimulation if the constant button is
depressed for twelve seconds or longer.
4. Change the intensity dial on the transmitter
clockwise and then counterclockwise. The
test light should glow brighter with higher
levels of stimulation and dimmer with
lower levels.
NOTE : It is normal for the test light not to
come on if the intensity level is set below
level ten.
5. Pressing the “Pager” button on the side of
the transmitter causes the collar to vibrate
for up to twelve seconds. The collar will
reactivate when you push the button again.
