Troubleshooting Guide

1. My dog is not reacting to the receiver/

collar.

- Make sure the receiver/collar is turned

on. Place the two red dots together to
activate the receiver/collar.

- Be sure the collar strap is tight enough
so both contact points are touching the

dog’s skin.

- The contact points may be too short for

your dog’s thick or long coat. To place
an order for longer contact points, please
call 1-888-811-9111. If you are already
using longer contact points, you might

need to trim down the hair on the dog’s
neck, so both contact points are touching
the skin.

- The intensity level may be too low for your

until the dog responds usually by neck
movement, head shaking, looking over
his shoulder, etc (response may be very
subtle so pay attention.).

2. The LED indicator light comes on, but

I do not feel any stimulation.

- Your tolerance may be higher than your

dog’s. You may need to try the unit on

and/or increase the stimulation level. Be
sure both contact points are touching

- The battery may be low, check the LED

light for battery life.

- If you have a full charge, and you have

done all of the above, your unit may
need to be serviced. Please contact

com or 1-888-811-9111.

3. The handheld transmitter has no
range, or stimulation is less when the

dog is farther away.

- Check to see if your fingers are

touching the antenna as the range may
substantially decrease.

- The range indicated on the unit’s box

is for flat terrain (line of sight). Heavy
brush, trees, hills or moisture will affect
the range of your unit. For best range,
hold the handheld transmitter vertically
above your head, and/or try moving to
higher ground.

- Any electrical conductors will affect the

range, such as cars, chain-link dog runs,
metal buildings, and radio towers. For
best results, operate away from these
structures.
