OPERATING

Intensity Selection

To select the intensity level, start on the zero

(0) setting. Gradually increase the level until you
get a response from the dog that would be
equivalent to a quick pull or jerk with a leash.

Remember that you will need to adjust the

setting (upward or downward) as the dog’s
attitude changes, especially during times of
increased excitement or distraction.

Prolonged use of the Pager (12 seconds or

longer) will drain the batteries more quickly.

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 placed in a different spot on the dog’s
neck.
