INDICATOR LIGHT: Indicates when the unit has
been turned on or off and serves as a battery
status indicator.
STEP: 01
USING THE BARK CONTROL COLLAR FOR THE FIRST TIME
Before using the SBC-8 for the first time, be sure to check that the unit has plenty of battery life to begin
operation. Your unit should arrive with a fresh battery and be ready to use right out of the box. Simply fit the
collar properly using the steps outlined on page 9. If the unit does not turn on or indicates the battery is low
(red indicator light is flashing) it is time to replace the battery. Average battery life is 200 hours, depending
on how often your dog barks.
Due to greater use during your dog’s initial training, your first battery may not last as long. To conserve
battery life, turn the SBC-8 off when not in use.
BATTERY INDICATION
Once the unit is powered on, and after 4 seconds, the unit will flash indicating the battery status. The
following table summarises the Indicator Light colours and their corresponding meanings:
