This ON/OFF command only works when remote and collar
are in close proximity; it will not work at a distance. Never
turn the unit ON/OFF while your dog is wearing the collar.

About Stimulation
We recommend that you always start training your dog with
the lowest stimulation, and increase to a higher Level if
necessary. You will know you’ve reached the right level
when your dog responds by twitching his head, neck or
shoulders or by perking up his ears. If the dog vocalizes,
you need to go to a lower level.

You control the length of the stimulation by the time you
press the button. For a short stimulation, press and release
the button. For a longer stimulation, hold the button down.
A maximum of 10 seconds may be applied before the
safety feature to prevent over-correction engages. After 10
seconds, stimulation will be locked out for another 10
seconds.

A press of the

B

button sends a signal to the collar to issue

a correction two levels higher than the currently selected
level. For example, if the stimulation level is set at Level 2,
a touch of the

B

control will correct at Level 4. Some

trainers like instant access to a higher setting for
circumstances with high distraction. The system will not
correct higher than level 9.

Tone Option

The

t

button sounds a tone in the collar. No stimulation

is delivered when this button is pressed.The tone continues
for as long as the button is held down. Tones can help
strengthen a dog’s response to training.Tones can be used
as a warning tone prior to pressing the stimulation

button; or can be a reward tone when presented with a
praise, play, or food for good behavior.

The use of training tone is optional. Its use varies between
popular training methods. Whether the tone will mean
reward or warning to your dog is up to the training method
you choose. Remember: the one training tone CANNOT be
both a warning and a reward.

To learn more about tone training, consult a qualified canine
training professional.

Low Battery Indicator
Your remote will tell you when the battery is low.The display will
flash “L” when you press the

t

button or either of the

stimulation buttons. Your remote will continue to function
following the first sign of low battery. Replace with one 12v
alkaline battery (23A or A23) as soon as possible.

NOTE: Cold temperatures may lead to premature low
battery signal.

Understanding the Collar

The lightweight, comfortable electronic collar is integrated
into a sleek, fashionable collar strap your dog wears. The
collar produces a harmless yet effective stimulation and
emits a training tone.The collar is waterproof and is safe for
your dog to wear even while swimming. The collar is
rechargeable; the collar’s light glows red while charging
and it glows green once charging is complete.

The collar uses a light to let you know its status. See table

on page 6.
