Safety during on-leash training. It is vitally important that you and your dog remain safe while learning during on-
leash training. Your dog should be on a strong leash, long enough for him to attempt to chase an object, but short enough for him not to reach a road or other unsafe area. You must also be physically strong enough to restrain your dog when he tries to chase.
R
isk of skin damage. Please read and follow the instructions in this manual. Proper fit of the collar is important. A collar worn for too long or made too tight on the pet’s neck may cause skin
damage. Ranging from redness to pressure ulcers; this condition is commonly known as bed sores.
Ÿ Avoid leaving the collar on the dog for more than 12 hours per day. Ÿ When possible reposition the collar on the pet’s neck every 1 to 2 hours. Ÿ Check the fit to prevent excessive pressure; follow the instructions in this manual. Ÿ Never connect a lead to the electronic collar; it will cause excessive pressure on
the contacts.
Ÿ When using a separate collar for a lead, don’t put pressure on the electronic
collar.
Ÿ Wash the dog’s neck area and the contacts of the collar weekly with a damp
cloth.
Ÿ If a rash or sore is found, discontinue use of the collar until the skin has healed. Ÿ If the condition persists beyond 48 hours, see your veterinarian.
These steps will help keep your pet safe and comfortable. Millions of pets are comfortable while they wear stainless steel contacts. Some pets are sensitive to
contact pressure. You may find after some time that your pet is very tolerant of the collar. If so, you may relax some of these precautions. It is important to continue
daily checks of the contact area. If redness or sores are found, discontinue use until the skin has fully healed.

How to find the best Vibration/Shock Level
The unit comes with Up and Down buttons to control the Vibration/Shock Level, with Level 1 being the lowest level and Level 16 being the highest.
The level of Vibration/Shock best suited for your dog depends on your dog’s temperament and threshold for Vibration/Shock. Always start at the lowest level and work your way up. The appropriate level can be found when the dog responds to the Vibration/Shock with a mild reaction, such as a tensing of the neck muscles. The Vibration/Shock Level may vary depending on the training situation. When highly distracted, dogs will require a higher level of Vibration/Shock.
Step
5
To maximize the distance
The unit has a 600 meter range. The range may vary depending on the way the Transmitter is held. Hold the Transmitter away from your body to receive the greatest range. For maximum signal strength, keep the device properly charged.
Maximum range Typical range Minimum range
*Avoid touching the antenna or the range may decrease
substantially.

Collar fitting
The Receiver/Collar should be fitted so that the surgical stainless steel contact points press firmly against the dog’s skin. When properly fitted, you should be able to fit a finger or two snugly in between the collar and you dog’s skin. When properly fitted, the Receiver/Collar should not move on the dog. The best location for the Receiver/Collar box is either side of the dog’s windpipe.
A loose fit can allow the Receiver/Collar to move around on the dog’s neck. When this happens, the contact points may rub the skin and cause irritation. If the Receiver/Collar is too tight, the dogs may have difficulty breathing.

Troubleshooting
My pet does not respond when I press a button.
Make sure the Receiver Collar has been turned on.
•
•
If your range has reduced from the first time you used the Remote Training Collar, the battery(s) may be low in either the Remote Transmitter or Receiver Collar.
•
Terrain, weather, vegetation, transmission from other radio devices and many other factors can impact the amount of range you have with the unit.
•
Test the Receiver Collar. See “How to use the Test Light” for details.
•
Increase the Vibration/Shock Level. Refer to “How to find the best Vibration/Shock Level” for more information.
•
Make sure the Receiver Collar’s Contact Points are placed snugly against your pet’s skin. Refer to “Collar fitting” for more information.
The Receiver Collar will not turn on.
•
Make sure the Receiver Collar has been charged. For the initial charge, be sure to charge it for 4 hours. Subsequent charges only take 2-3 hours.
The Receiver Collar is not responding to the Remote Transmitter.
•
Verify the Receiver Collar is on.
•
If the Indicator Light does not come on when any button is pressed on the Transmitter, ensure that the batteries are fully charged.
•
If the first two solutions did not resolve your problem, see “How to pair the Remote Transmitter & the Receiver Collar”.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Vibration/Shock safe for my pet?
How old does my pet have to be before using the Remote Training Collar?
Once my pet is trained and has been obeying my commands, will he have to continue to wear the Receiver Collar?
Is the Receiver Collar
waterproof?
Will I get exactly 600 meters of range with the Remote Training Collar?
How long can I continuously deliver Vibration/ Shock to my pet?
While the Vibration/Shock is unpleasant, it is harmless to your pet. Electronic training devices require interaction and training from the owner to achieve desired results.
Your pet should be able to recognize basic obedience commands such as “Sit” or “Stay”. Pets should be at least 6 months old before using the Training Collar.
Probably not. You may need to reinforce training with the Receiver Collar from time to time.
Yes.
The range of the Remote Training will vary according to terrain,weather, vegetation, as well as transmission from other radio devices. See “To maximize the distance” for tips on maximizing your range.
The maximum amount of time you can press the Vibration/Shock Button and deliver Vibration/Shock to your pet continuously is 10 seconds. After this, there's a time-out and Vibration/Shock cannot be delivered for 5 seconds. After the 5 second time-out period, Button can be pressed and Vibration/Shock can be delivered again.
