Troubleshooting Guide
Warning:
If the unit has been engaged with a temperature reading above 94o F, the backup sensor must be cooled below 91o F before it will
reset. Failure to do so will result in the unit deploying continuously until it can be reset.

Testing the Premier Canine System
TM
Plus: If you set the High alarm temperature to around 85
o F,
you should be able to
activate the system with body heat generated in the palm of your hand. Hold the primary probe in your hand and observe the
temperature increase on the front panel LCD. When the temperature reaches your high programmed temperature, your alerting
system will be triggered, displaying MAX on the LCD screen accompanied by a blinking green LED. You can manually deactivate
the system
by toggling the upper right-hand switch to the center (OFF) position.

Solutions
Display is jumpy, reads erratically
Programming set point changes.
Alarm does not sound
Digital display is locked up. Stuck on one
temperature or will not program to desired setting.
Alarm remains on
Display reading is LLL
Display reading is HHH

Temperature
Improper grounding of the unit. Check your ground wire. Make
sure system is grounded to the car battery!
Control Unit and/or probe are too close to radio transmitter.
Battery has lost power or has been disconnected. Loose battery
connection.
Set point is programmed improperly. Go through programming
instructions again. If "MAX" is flashing and your horn, lights or
siren are not activated, improper connections could be the culprit.
The unit has received a power surge. Turn the unit off and remove the
fuse (at vehicle battery). Let the system discharge for about 30 minutes or
more. Replace the fuse and reset the system. Set point is programmed
improperly. Make sure setting is 75
o
F or higher (must be higher than
ambient room temperature in your current location). Back up probe may
have been activated, If the temperature has exceeded 94
o
, cool physical
body of back up sensor below 91
o
F for it to reset. You may use a freeze
spray to accomplish this quickly.
If your display reads LLL and will not return to any numbered
reading, the primary probe wire may be broken or disconnected.
You may want to consider ordering a spare probe to avoid this
situation.
The temperature has exceeded 200o F. This can be observed
when you are both out of the vehicle and the system is not
enabled. Cool the vehicle off and the reading will return. Check
for proper installation of the probe.
Internal rechargeable NiMh battery is discharged; Turn on the
premier for approximately 8 hours to recharge the battery.
