WARNING
CAUTION
Before your first training, please read and follow the instructions in this manual carefully.
The cautions below will help keep your dog safe and comfortable. Millions of dogs are
comfortable when they wear stainless steel contacts, while some dogs are sensitive to
contact pressure.
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 (do not attach the leash to the
Training Collar), long enough for him to attempt to chase an object, but short enough for
him not to reach a road or other hazard. You must also be physically strong enough to
restrain your dog when he tries to chase.
DO NOT leave the collar on the dog for more than 12 hours per day.
When possible re-position the collar on the dog's neck every 1 to 2 hours.
Check the fit to prevent excessive pressure; follow the instructions in this manual.
Examine the contact area daily for signs of a rash or a sore.
If a rash or sore is found, discontinue the use of the collar until the skin has healed.
If the condition persists beyond 48 hours, see your veterinarian.
Receiver collar meets IP67 waterproof rating, it can be submerged in water up to 1
meter for up to 30 minutes. If submerged and wet, please do not use it.
Risk of skin damage. Proper collar fitment is important. A collar worn for too long or
made too tight on the dog's neck may cause skin damage. Ranging from redness to
pressure ulcers; this condition is commonly known as bed sores.
Never connect an extra leash to the collar; it will cause excessive pressure on the
contacts.
Clean the dog's neck area and the contact probes of the collar weekly with a damp
cloth.

How the System Works
Receiver
The Remote Training Collar assists you in controlling your dog without a leash.
At the push of a button, your Remote Transmitter sends a signal activating your
dog's Receiver. He receives a safe but annoying stimulation. He'll quickly learn
the association between his behavior and your correction, and soon you'll have
a better-behaved dog.
The Remote Training Collar has been proven safe, comfortable, and effective
for both small and large dog breeds.
If using the Remote Training Collar consistently and correctly, any basic obedience
commands can be taught and will help correct any misbehavior that your dog
exhibits.

X. Training Tip
Find the best stimulation for your dog
Important: Always start at the lowest level and work your way up.
The Remote Training Collar has 8 types of Warning Tones, 3 levels of Vibration
(Light, Medium, and High), and the Vibration Boost with a constant intensity.
For Warning Tones, there are 8 types of Tones, with only frequency differences
between the different types. For Vibration, level L is the lowest; level H is the
This allows you to choose the Stimulation level that is best for your dog. Once you
have placed the Receiver on your dog, it is time to find the Stimulation Level that
is best for him. This is called the Recognition Level.
A slight change in your dog's behavior, such as looking around in curiosity, scratching
at his collar, or flicking his ears, indicates the Recognition Level that is best for
your dog.
Follow the steps below to find your dog's Recognition Level:
1.Starting at the lowest level, press the Warning Tone/Vibration/Vibration Boost
Button continuously for 1 to 2 seconds.
Note: When the Warning Tone/Vibration/Vibration Boost Button is held down for 10
consecutive seconds, the Remote Transmitter will "time out", and you must release and
press the button again before additional stimulation can be delivered.
2. If your dog shows no reaction, repeat the Stimulation Level several times
before moving up to the next level.

4. Move up through the Stimulation Level until your dog reliably responds to
the stimulation.
5. If your dog continues to show no response at the highest level of the Warning
Tone and Vibration, or Vibration Boost, check the fit of the Receiver. Then go back
to #1 and repeat the process. If this still does not yield any results, your dog's hair
will need to be trimmed around the Contact Points.
If, after completing all of these steps, your dog still does not indicate he is feeling
the stimulation, please contact our customer service.
How to Maximize the distance?
Terrain, weather, vegetation, transmission from other radio devices, and other
factors will affect the maximum range.
Hold the Remote Transmitter in a horizontal position away from your body to
achieve optimum range. For maximum signal strength, keep the device properly
charged.
*Avoid touching the antenna or the range may decrease substantially.
XI. Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the Stimulation safe for my dog?
A: While the Stimulation is unpleasant, it is harmless to your dog. Electronic
training devices require interactio n and training from the owner to achieve
desired results.

Q: How long can I continuously deliver stimulation to my dog?
A: The maximum amount of time you can press the Warning Tone/Vibration/
Vibration Boost Button and deliver stimulation to your dog continuously is 10
seconds. After this, the Remote Transmitter will time out, and these stimulation
buttons must be released and pressed again.
Q: What should I do if my dog's neck becomes red and irritated?
A: Stop using the product immediately for at least 48 hours. If the condition persists
beyond 48 hours, please consult your veterinarian.

vegetation, as well as transmission from other radio devices. See "How to Maximize
the Distance" on page 18 for tips on maximizing your range.
18
Q: Once my dog is trained and has been obeying my commands, will he
have to continue to wear the Receiver?
A: Probably not. You may need to reinforce training with the Receiver from time
to time.
Q: Ho w o ld do es my do g hav e to be befor e u si ng th e R em ote Tra ining

Sit'' or “Stay''. Dogs should be at least 6 months old before using the Remote
Training Collar.
Q: When should I recharge the Remote Transmitter and Receiver?
A: The low battery bar symbol on the Remote Transmitter Screen flashes at high
speed, indicating the need for charging; The Battery Bar Indicator on the Receiver
flashes at high speed, indicating the need for charging.
Q: Can I attach a leash to the Receiver?
A: No. This may cause the Contact Points to be pulled too tightly against the dog's
neck. If needed, please use a separate collar.
Make sure the Receiver's Prongs are placed snugly against your dog's skin.
Refer to "Fitting the Receiver" on page 13 for more information.
