5. LED INDICATOR
The LED indicator flashes every 4 seconds when the
receiver is on and ready for use. The LED indicator will blink
on the receiver when the transmitter buttons are pressed.
The LED indicator color indicates the battery life level.
Green = Full charge
Amber = Medium charge
Red = Needs charge
If the unit is used while the LED indicator is red, it may shut
down automatically.
Receiver Indicator Light
When the Constant button on the transmitter is pressed,
the receiver indicator light will glow steadily (either green,
amber, or red based on the remaining battery life), as long
as you hold the button down, for up to 12 seconds. When
the Nick button is pressed, the light comes on for a fraction
of a second.

6. CARE FOR LCD TRANSMITTERS IN COLD
TEMPERATURE
In cold temperatures (10°F or below), the Liquid Crystal
Display (LCD) on your transmitter may be dim or slow to
respond.
Wait until the display becomes visible before selecting
any training level. Even though the LCD screen might be
dim or slow to respond when you press the buttons, the
transmitter will still function properly. If you press the +/-
button, the level on the screen may not change but the
actual intensity from the receiver will change in agreement
with the dial.
In this situation, it is ideal to either wait until your transmitter
is back in working order before emitting a correction or
gradually press the +/- button while holding down the
Constant button to see your dog's reaction.
Attention!
When using the unit in cold temperatures, it is
recommended that the transmitter is placed under
your jacket next to your body. The warmth of your
body will greatly improve the battery life and usage.
