MAINTENANCE
Basic maintenance
Be sure the rubber plugs are always
secured when the collar is in use. After
each session, carefully inspect your unit
for any missing parts or casing damage.
Broken casing on the receiver may affect
the waterproof guarantee of the unit. Rinse
the receiver after each session and clean off
any dirt or debris.
Storage maintenance
Your unit should be fully charged before
extended storage. During storage, the unit

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
1. My dog is not reacting to the collar.
- Make sure the receiver is turned on. Place
the two red dots together to activate the
receiver.
- Be sure the collar strap is tight enough so
both contact points are touching the dog's
skin.
- The contact points may be too short for
your dog's thick or long coat. To place
an order for longer contact points, please
call 00 33 (0)1 30 62 65 65. If you are
already using longer contact points, you
might need to trim down the hair on the
dog's neck, so both contact points are
touching the skin.
- The intensity level may be too low
for your dog. Keep increasing the
stimulation until the dog responds
usually by neck movement, head
shaking, looking over his shoulder, etc.
(response may be very subtle so pay
attention.)
2. The LED indicator light comes on, but
I do not feel any stimulation.
- Your tolerance may be higher than your
dog's. You may need to try the unit on
your fingertips where sensitivity is higher
