TURN OFF DEVICE
• Hold down power button for 5 seconds
To turn o your device, hold down the power button for 5 seconds until the LED rapidly blinks WHITE. Your device will automatically enter a sleep mode after a period of inactivity (~5 minutes) when not on your horse to conserve battery, and will awaken upon sensing motion.

CARE & MAINTENANCE
NIGHTWATCH® is durable, but does contain sensitive electronic components so appropriate care should be given
to ensure longevity and proper functionality. Although the embedded technology is enclosed within a flexible, water- and dust-resistant enclosure, excessive water exposure and submersion should be avoided.
Each halter/collar is constructed using all-natural English Bridle leather fromWickett & Craigthat has been hand selected byFreedman. English Bridle is a traditional leather (cow hide) used in a variety of applications, from classic equestrian tack to high-end leather goods. Drum dyed and hot stued, English Bridle is smooth and flexible, yet durable.
The leather surface of your NIGHTWATCH® halter/collar is not scratch resistant due to its natural soft leather properties and thus scratches/marks will become visible under normal wear and tear and are not covered under warranty. Protequus recommends you periodically clean and condition your halter/collar.
CLEANING A simple rule for taking care of leather is to treat leather like you treat your own skin. After all, leather is skin and should be treated as such. When your halter/collar is dirty, it must be cleaned. Always use a mild solution of saddle soap and water to neutralize the salt from the horses sweat. The saddle soap will clean away any extra dirt as well. The fatty acids found in saddle soap are known to balance the Ph levels of salt found in sweat that can burn or stien leather. Make sure you clean all areas well.
CONDITIONING
Always use a conditioner on your halter/collar. Rub the conditioner into the leather using a small sponge working it in a circular motion. This conditioner is the best to allow the leather to stay supple. Most conditioners also tend to darken leather as well. The more you condition your halter/collar, the darker it will become, eventually taking on a very dark brown shade.
