Rechargeable Batteries; Fit The Receiver Collar - Petsafe HDT11-13910 Manuel D'utilisation Et De Dressage

Rechargeable Batteries

: The rechargeable Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH) batteries are not memory sensitive and do not
require depletion before charging.
: The batteries come partially charged from the factory, but will require a full charge (24 hours)
before the first use.
: When storing the unit for long periods, remember to regularly give batteries a full charge
(12 hours). This should be done once every 4 to 6 weeks.
: Excessive overcharging can shorten battery life. After initial charge, never leave the battery
plugged in for more than 12 hours.
: If your equipment has not been charged for an extended period, you may experience a
decrease in battery life the first few uses. Afterwards, the battery life will return to previous
capacity levels.
: You should expect hundreds of recharge cycles from your batteries. However, all rechargeable
batteries lose capacity over time relative to the number of recharge cycles they experience.
This is normal. If your operating time drops to half of the original life, contact the Customer
Care Center.
Step 3

Fit the Receiver Collar

Important: The proper fit and placement of your Receiver Collar is important for effective
operation. The Contact Points must have direct contact with your dog's skin on the
underside of his neck.
To assure a proper fit, please follow these steps:
1. Make sure that the Receiver Collar is turned off.
2. Start with your dog standing comfortably (3A).
3. Place the Receiver Collar on your dog's neck close to the ears. Center the
Contact Points underneath your dog's neck, touching the skin (3B). Note: It
is sometimes necessary to trim the hair around the Contact Points to make
sure that contact is consistent.
Do not shave the pet's neck as this
may increase the risk of skin irritation.
4. Check the tightness of the Receiver Collar by inserting
one finger between the collar and your dog's neck (3C).
The fit should be snug but not constricting.
5. Allow your dog to wear the Receiver Collar for several
minutes then recheck the fit. Check the fit again as your
dog becomes more comfortable with the Receiver Collar.
The Receiver Collar should not be worn
for more than 12 hours out of every
24-hour period. Leaving the collar on too
long could lead to skin irritation. Please
refer to page 2 for additional information.
