TESTING
3. Turn the transmitter on by pressing the blue button
on the right side of the transmitter until the LCD
screen illuminates. The LCD screen shows the
amount of battery life remaining and the LED blinks
once every 4 seconds.
4. Watch the test light as you push the “Nick” button
on the transmitter. It should light for just a moment.
5. Watch the test light as you push the “Constant”
button on the transmitter. It should light for as long
as the button is pressed. However, as a safety
feature, the receiver/collar will automatically shut
off stimulation if the constant button is depressed
for 12 seconds or longer.
6. Turn the Rheostat Intensity Dial on the transmitter
clockwise and then counterclockwise. The test light
should glow brighter with higher levels of
stimulation and dimmer with lower levels. When
you change the intensity dial, the number on the
LCD screen will change as well.
7. Pressing the “Pager” button on the front of the
transmitter causes the collar to vibrate for up to 12
seconds. The collar will reactivate when you push
the button again.
NOTE :
The test light may not come on if the ntensity
level is set below level ten.

FITTING THE COLLAR ON THE DOG
FITTING THE COLLAR ON THE DOG
The collar should be fitted so that the Surgical
Stainless Steel contact points press firmly against
the dog’s skin. You should be able to fit a finger in
between the contact point and your dog’s skin.
A loose fit can allow the collar to move around on
the dog’s neck. When this happens, the contact
points may rub the skin and cause irritation. If the
collar is too loose, electrical contact will be
inconsistent and your corrections will be
inconsistent also.
