the actual distance to the

Collar is not

beeping when setting up
the Trigger Zone.

The Havahart

See Page 12 -- Activating a Collar.

Make sure that the battery is properly installed and awake -- green light is flashing.

Gently shake the Collar to keep it awake when the Controller searches for it.

If you are adding an additional Collar to the system, use a permanent marker

to identify which Collar is which and make sure that you are not trying to

add the old Collar to the system as it is has already been added.

If the Collar has already been added to the system, remove the Collar from

the system (see Page 13) and then add the Collar again.

Even though you can set your Trigger Zone distance to any number between

40-400 feet, the displayed Distance to the Dog on the Controller increases

and decreases to the nearest 10 foot increment. The system keeps an

internal distance that is more accurate so that the alarm will sound and the

Collar will deliver a correction when your dog crosses into the Trigger Zone.

This increases battery life.

This is normal. The Trigger Zone can be up to 6-13 feet wide as a result of

interference from other objects (see Page 32).

Where the Havahart

Collar delivers a correction is influenced by the speed

and orientation of the Havahart

Collar as your dog crosses the Trigger Zone.

Check that the Controller is plugged into a working 120-volt outlet, turned

on, the LCD screen is displaying text, and the correction level and Trigger

Zone distance are set to your desired levels.

Make sure that the Collar has a new, properly installed battery. The positive

side faces outward. If the batter needs to be replaced, do so within 6 feet of

the

Controller.

Make sure that the Collar has been properly added to the Controller (see

Page

12).

If you cannot hear the beep because you are in a noisy area, use the Heart-

Shaped Collar Tester (see Page 14) to determine the location of the Trigger Zone.

Check that the Controller is plugged into a working 120-volt outlet, turned

on, the LCD screen is displaying text, and the correction level and Trigger

Zone distance are set to your desired levels.

Make sure that the Collar has a new, properly installed battery. The positive

side faces outward. If the battery needs to be replaced, do so within 6 feet of

the

Controller.

Make sure that the Collar has been properly added to the Controller (see

Page

12).
