BUTTON FUNCTION
“Nick” Button
When the “Nick” button is pushed, the receiver
emits an extremely short pulse of electrical
stimulation that automatically shuts off no matter
how long you leave your finger on the button. The
“Nick” is mild but motivating!
“Constant” Button
Pressing the “Constant” button gives
stimulation for up to twelve seconds, at which
time, the collar will turn off. The collar will
reactivate when you push the button again.
“Pager” Button
Pressing the “Pager” button on the side of the
transmitter causes the collar to vibrate. It’s a
great way of communicating with your dog using
non-electrical stimulation.

Fitting the Collar on the Dog
The collar should be fitted so that the
stainless steel contact points press firmly against
the dog’s skin.
A loose fit can allow the collar to move
around on the dog’s neck. When this happens the
contact points may rub the skin and cause
irritation. If the collar is too loose, electrical
contact will be inconsistent and your corrections
will be inconsistent also.
Receiver Battery Charging Receptacle
On the inside of the collar receiver, next to
the collar strap, is a battery charging receptacle
with a rubber cover plug.
Internal Antenna
The has no external
antenna on the collar. The antenna is inside the
collar receiver.
