Fitting The Collar; Starting Out With The Training Collar; Cautions For Use - Num'axes CANICOM Soft Guide D'utilisation

Fitting the collar


- If the strap is too loose, the collar is likely to move and repeated friction can irritate the skin of your
dog. Furthermore, it will not function correctly.
- If the collar is too tight, the dog will have breathing difficulties.
The strap is properly adjusted when you can insert two fingers between the strap and your dog's neck.
Never leave the collar more than 8 hours per day on your dog. Check your dog's neck regularly. If
irritations appear, remove the collar until all signs of skin irritation have disappeared.

Starting out with the training collar


- You can start using the collar with 6 month-old puppies that have already received some rudimental
training: "stay", "sit", or at least "no".
- DO NOT USE the collar with dogs that are not in good physical shape (i.e. cardiac problems, epilepsy) or
have behavioural problems.
- Your dog will need to get used to the collar; for a few days let the dog wear the collar but do not use it.
- Positive and effective training takes time. Do not rush:
- Choose a familiar area, a place your dog is used to.
- Choose the right moment to press the button: at the exact time your dog does something
wrong.
- Give your dog plenty of encouragement: he will learn faster and his desire to respond will only
increase.

Cautions for use


- The receiver collar is totally waterproof. Your dog can swim in water.
- The remote control is shower proof only: it is only designed to remain a short time in the rain. Put it
in a dry place as soon as possible. If your remote control falls into the water, it could be damaged in an
irreversible way.
- The dog should not wear a medal, metallic collar, or any other kind of collar together with the training
collar.
- Avoid placing the remote control close to objects sensitive to magnetic fields, which could be irreversibly
damaged.
- Do not place or keep the unit in places exposed to high temperatures.
- NUM'AXES advises to use the same type and same brand of batteries as those supplied in you new
