Charge of the battery
WARNING: it is necessary to fully charge the battery of your CANIBEEP 5 collar before the first use.
To charge your product, proceed in the following way:
connect the charger to the charging station connect the charger to a wall outlet put the collar on the charging station (make sure to respect the orientation of the collar on the charging
station – see Diagram 4). After a few seconds, the Nr screen starts blinking (3 horizontal lines)
when the battery is fully charged, the product switch Off remove the collar from the charging station disconnect the charger for the wall outlet
A full charge takes approximately 3 hours.
Activate/deactivate the collar
Activate: move the magnetic key towards the collar so that it comes into contact with the symbol located
on the collar, hold for 1 second (see Diagram 5). The screens will light and the collar will emit one low pitch beep sound indicating that the collar is On.
After one minute without using the magnetic key, the screens will go into stand by mode. The dot only will flash on each screen.
A quick brush of the magnetic key on the , or symbol will wake up the screens.
Deactivate: move the magnetic key towards the collar so that it comes into contact with the symbol
located on the collar, hold for 1 second (see Diagram 5). The screens will go out and the collar will emit two low pitch beep sounds indicating the collar is Off.
To increase the battery life, we recommend you to deactivate the collar if you are not using it for a long period.

It’s up to you to adjust the movement detection sensitivity to your dog’s behavior and to the results you want to obtain.
Two examples:
a) After pointing, you still want to hear CANIBEEP 5 while your dog is sliding towards the prey: set the
sensitivity detection to “minimum sensitivity”. Collar is still beeping while the dog is moving.
b) You want to hear CANIBEEP 5 only when your dog is perfectly still. The collar stops beeping at the slightest
movement of the dog: set the sensitivity detection to “maximum sensitivity”.

Checking/reloading collar battery
The battery condition is checked in 2 distinct occasions:
when you turn the collar On when you turn the collar Off
During these 2 operations, if there are 5 high pitch beep sounds (instead of 1 or 2 low pitch beep sounds) and the vertical lines on the screens flash rapidly, your battery is weak.
Recharge the battery following procedure indicated in § Charge of the battery.
Examples
1. You want to track your dog when he is pointing
Put CANIBEEP 5 programmed in
“pointing” mode on your dog
Moving dog:
no sound
Pointing dog:
One beep every 2 seconds
Goal: to track pointing dog and check he stays still
2. You want to track your dog when he is moving and then pointing
Put CANIBEEP 5 programmed on
“moving + pointing” mode on your dog
Moving dog:
One beep every
5, 10, 15 or 20 seconds
Pointing dog:
One beep every 2 seconds
Goal: to track the dog while he follows a prey track when hunting
3. Train a young pointer using an expert dog
To train a young dog, it is useful to start out with the help of an expert dog, which carries out the function of instructor. In this case CANIBEEP 5 is very effective, as it allows the “beginner” dog to rely on its ears, as well as on its other senses, to understand how the expert dog is working.
CANIBEEP 5 user’s guide – indice A 9/12
Start out by putting the collar in
“moving + pointing” mode on dog A
(instructor)
Dog A moving:
One beep every
5, 10, 15 or 20 seconds
Dog A pointing:
One beep every 2 seconds
Bring dog B (beginner) with collar in “moving + pointing” mode next to dog A already pointing.
Dog B pointing:
One beep every 2 seconds
Goal: when the beginner understands the connection between the beep, which indicates that the
instructor dog is pointing, and the presence of the prey, it will naturally begin to master the skill.
It will thus find a great number of preys, tracking the pointing dog by itself, and will learn the technique in little time.
With this system the period necessary before it can usefully hunt by itself is greatly reduced.
Cautions for use
Before using the collar, we advise you to have your dog checked by a vet to ensure he is fit to wear a
beeper.
We advise you to use the CANIBEEP 5 collar on dogs over 6 months old. Do not use the collar with dogs that are not in good physical shape (i.e. cardiac problems, epilepsy) or have
behavioral problems.
To prevent damaging your CANIBEEP 5, we advise against your dog wearing a metal identity tag, metal
collar, collar bell or any other collar around his neck when he is wearing his beeper collar. Yet, if you wish to use along with your CANIBEEP 5 another tool (training collar, collar bell …) we advise you to attach them on the same strap but at the opposite side of the CANIBEEP 5 collar in order to prevent them from banging one against the other.
When you put CANIBEEP 5 collar around your dog’s neck, direct the sound diffuser towards the dog’s body,
so that beep noises do not come too close to your dog’s ears.
Give your dog time to get used to the sounds of the CANIBEEP 5. The volume of the sound might scare the
dog at the beginning: to help him get used to CANIBEEP 5, lower the sound volume (see § Adjusting sound volume). In this way, your dog will familiarize himself with the collar.
Avoid using CANIBEEP 5 indoors: the sound volume could irreversibly damage your ear-drums. We advise you to program your CANIBEEP 5 collar before putting it on your dog’s neck. CANIBEEP 5 is waterproof, so your dog can cross any watercourse without damaging it. However, if
CANIBEEP 5 remains under water for a long period of time, the cavity of the sound diffuser may become filled with water, and the emission power will be reduced. To restore the unit performance, shake your CANIBEEP 5 collar holding the diffuser downwards, to let all the water out.
Avoid placing the magnetic key close to objects sensitive to magnetic fields, which could be irreversibly
damaged.
Do not place or keep the unit in places exposed to high temperatures. A charge/discharge cycle is recommended once a month. Keep the collar out of reach of children. This device is not a toy. Under no circumstances should you open the CANIBEEP 5 collar. You could damage some
components and endanger the waterproof function of your product. Moreover, if you do this, your guarantee will be cancelled.
