ADJUSTING & POSITIONING YOUR
COLLAR FOR PROPER FIT
I
rl uper r;ullal ~~yrlirless dl IU pus~i~u~ I
are very importantto insure safety
and correctfunctioning every time
All electronic collars need to fit
very snuglyto work properly. They
must be just tight enough to allow
the "prongs" or electrodes to make
good skin contact.
In most cases, you should be able
to fit no more than two fmgers between the collar
belt andyour dog's neck.
Proper fit of the collarshould allowthe dog to breath
normally. The collar should never be so tight on the
dog's neck that it restricts the dog's normal
breathing pattern.
If your collar is too loose, you may get inconsistent
stimulation due to improper prong contact with the
skin. This candirectly affect whether or not the dog
will receive a correction at the right times. Always
check for good "prong'hontact
if it appears that
your dog is not responding to the stimulation.
A loose collar can also promote skin irritation from
moving or rubbing too much on a dog's neck while
they are running or training.
A proper snug fit will
help prevent this from occurring.
FO~ proper positioning of your collar receiver box, it
should be placed on the front center of the dog's
neck.

Intensitv SelectionDial
The intensity selection dial allows you t
choose between sixteen different level
of stimulation for very precise control.
select in^ Pro~erIntensitvLevel
The first and most important step in training your dog with
your
Micro-iDTFM Training System is determining the cor-
rect Intensity Level to provide the proper training stimula-
tion without over-shockingyour dog.
To do this,
turn the CollarUnit ON and properlyplace it on
the dog's neck. Place the Intensity Selection dial so that
the Systemis set on Level One. Press either the 'NICK' or
the 'STIMU' Button. If there is no reaction fkom your dog,
increase the Intensity Level in increments of one until the
dog feels the stimulation. You should be able to tell when
the dog is feeling the shock by the outward signs of dis-
comfort or confusion on it's face. (Note: Some dog's may
require more or less stimulation depending upon their indi-
vidual natureor size.)
Transmitter Antenna
Be sureto check that the antenna is securely fastened
to the transmitter before each use. Hand-tightened
only. Becareful when screwingthe antenna intothe
transmitter: over-tightening cancause damage tothe

All Micro-iDPM training collars are equipped with
rechargeable Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) batteries.
NiMH batteries are not memory sensitive and do not
require depletion before recharging.
The batteries come partially charged from the factory.
It is, however, recommended that you give the battery
a full charge before the first use. This takes about 12
hours.
Remember
- Always keep batteries away from
flammable substances (especially when charging).
When storing the unit for a long period, remember to
give full charge (12 hours) to the battery regularly.
This should be done once every
4 to 6 weeks.
The transmitter uses a
9V replaceable battery (not
included). Be sure to pay attention to the
"+" and "-"
charges when inserting the battery.
Battery Charging Procedure
1. Make sure the unit is off.
2. Plug the charger into a standar
electrical outlet.
3. Attach charging cable to charger an
plug into collar unit.
4. Charge the battery for no more than 12 hours.
5. After charging, disconnect the battery charging cable from the
receptacle and securely replace rubber battery receptacle cover.
6. Test the system to make sure that unit is working properly.

Before testing, make sure that the collar unit is fully
charged and the power to the Collar Receiver is "ON".
To Test the Electronic Stimulation:
1. Place the tester firmly on the Colla
Unit electrodes as shown.
2. Set the intensity level (a setting of 4
or less may not light the tester due
to its low intensity level).
3. Push either the 'NICK' or 'CONT' button.
4. The tester light will flash once for the NICK
function and will continue to light while the CONT
button is pressed (the higher the intensity level, the
brighter the test light becomes).
To Test the Vibration:
1. Turn the Collar Unit ON.
2. Hold the Collar Unit in your hand (you may want
to turn the intensity level
all the way down and
avoid touching the metal contacts to prevent
accidental electrical stimulationto yourself).
3. Press the red Vibration button on the side of the
transmitter.
4. The Collar Unit should vibrate while you press the
button.

Before you start training, your dog should be examined
by a veterinarian to assure that your dog is in good health.
Never leave your dog unattended with the unit on.
Since no electronic device is perfect, there is a very slight
possibility that your dog may receive an unintentional
electric stimulation.
Your Micro-iDTTMTrainer is a very valuable tool if
used correctly. It is extremely important that you
completely understand all the functions of the collar and
how to properly train with it before placing it on your
dog.
The electrodes on this collar are made with high grade
stainless steel to help prevent any chemical or allergic
reactions with your dog's skin.
To prevent neck irritation. the collar should never be
worn for more than
12 hours a dav. Changing the
collar location slightly on the dog's neck daily will also
help prevent irritations. It is important to keep the
collar clean. Clean the electrodes regularly with a mild
anti-bacterial soap.
If an irritation is found, carefully wash the dog's neck
with soap and water and then wipe the area with
Hydrogen peroxide. Dry thoroughly and apply an
antibiotic ointment. Consult your veterinarian if the
irritations look severe.

It is very important to periodically clean your
Micro-iDTTMTrainer for nlaxin~ulnperformance.
Regular cleaning will also lengthen the life of your
unit.
Clean the Micro-iDFM Trainer collar box with
lukewarm water and a mild anti-bacterial soap.
Take care to thoroughly clean the space between the
electrodes and the belt.
The belt and buckle should be cleaned with water
and a mild soapthen allowed to
dry completely.
After each cleaning, always allow the entire unit to
completelydrybefore
use.
