• Your NIGHTWATCH® device requires cellular (3G) or WiFi connectivity.
• The NIGHTWATCH® Web app requires use of the latest version of Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer, Microsoft
Edge, or Safari browsers. JavaScript and Cookies must be enabled.
• Please read all enclosed documents before operating your device and keep it for future reference. Failure
to follow instructions could result in fire, electric shock, injury, or damage to your NIGHTWATCH® device.
• Before your device can issue alerts, it must “learn” your horse. This “learning” period may take up to 2 weeks
depending upon their unique profile and total time spent wearing the device.

you may be periodically asked for feedback regarding your horse via the NIGHTWATCH® Web app.
• NIGHTWATCH® is an early warning system, which means you do not need to actively monitor your horse
via the NIGHTWATCH® Web app. Alerts will be generated when user-defined thresholds are breached.
• To maximize performance, connect your device to a WiFi network, even when there is cellular coverage.
• NIGHTWATCH® is safe and fully operational in the same environmental conditions as most cellular phones.
The following are the recommended ambienttemperature ranges for charging and operating your device:

NIGHTWATCH® is durable, but does contain sensitive electronic components so appropriate care should be given
to ensure longevity and proper functionality. Although the embedded technology is enclosed within a flexible,
water- and dust-resistant enclosure, excessive water exposure and submersion should be avoided.
Each halter/collar is constructed using all-natural English Bridle leather fromWickett & Craigthat has been hand
selected byFreedman Harness & Saddlery Company. English Bridle is a traditional leather (cow hide) used in a
variety of applications, from classic equestrian tack to high-end leather goods. Drum dyed and hot stued, English
Bridle is smooth and flexible, yet durable.
The leather surface of your NIGHTWATCH® halter/collar is not scratch resistant due to its natural soft leather
properties and thus scratches/marks will become visible under normal wear and tear and are not covered under
warranty. Protequus recommends you periodically clean and condition your halter/collar.
CLEANING
A simple rule for taking care of leather is to treat leather like you treat your own skin. After all, leather is skin
and should be treated as such. When your halter/collar is dirty, it must be cleaned. Always use a mild solution
of saddle soap and water to neutralize the salt from the horse’s sweat. The saddle soap will clean away any extra
dirt as well. The fatty acids found in saddle soap are known to balance the Ph levels of salt found in sweat that can
burn or stien leather.
CONDITIONING
Always use a conditioner on your halter/collar. Rub the conditioner into the leather using a small sponge working it
in a circular motion. This conditioner allows the leather to stay supple. Most conditioners also tend to darken leather
as well. The more you condition your halter/collar, the darker it will become, eventually taking on a dark brown shade.
