Important Safety Information
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.
Risk 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.
ŸAvoid leaving the collar on the dog for more than 12 hours per day.
ŸWhen possible reposition the collar on the pet’s neck every 1 to 2 hours.
ŸCheck the fit to prevent excessive pressure; follow the instructions in this manual.
ŸNever connect a lead to the electronic collar; it will cause excessive pressure on
the contacts.
ŸWhen using a separate collar for a lead, don’t put pressure on the electronic
collar.
ŸWash the dog’s neck area and the contacts of the collar weekly with a damp
cloth.
ŸIf a rash or sore is found, discontinue use of the collar until the skin has healed.
ŸIf 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.

your dog is aggressive, or if your dog is prone to aggressive

(This takes approximately 6-8 seconds.)
2. Release the On/Off Button.
Note: To extend the life of the batteries, turn the Receiver Collar off when it is
not in use.
In normal mode, the Green LED will flash once every 5 seconds,
indicating the Receiver Collar is on and ready to receive a signal from
the Handheld Transmitter.

Step
4
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.

Step

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.

Training Guide
General Tips
ŸEliminate one misbehavior or teach one obedience command at a time.
If you move too fast with training, your pet may become confused.
ŸBe consistent. Correct your pet every time he misbehaves.
ŸUnless you can supervise him, it is recommended that you restrict your
pet from situations in which he has a history of misbehaving. However,
setting up a situation as a training session can dramatically improve
your chances of success.
ŸIf your pet reacts to the tones by hiding or acting fearful, redirect his
attention to a simple and appropriate behavior, such as the “sit”
command.
ŸPets should be at least 6 months old before using the Training Collar.
ŸOnly let responsible family members use the Training Collar. It is not a
toy!
ŸOther pets in hearing range will be affected by the training tones.
Therefore, training sessions should be conducted out of hearing range
of other pets.
18 19
Never use the Remote Training Collar to correct or
eliminate any form of aggressive behavior. We recommend
you contact your local veterinarian or professional trainer to
determine if your pet might be aggressive. See page 3 for
more information.

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.
