as shown.

3.  Plug the charger into a standard 120/240-volt AC wall outlet.
4.  Charge the GPS Collar for 4 hours for the first charge and every

Press the On/Off Button and release when the Receiver Indicator Light 

comes on green and beeps.

TO TURN THE GPS COLLAR/E-COLLAR MODULE OFF

Press and hold the On/Off Button until the Receiver Indicator Light comes on solid red and the GPS Collar beeps 

for 2 seconds. To extend the battery life between charging cycles, turn off the GPS Collar when it is not in use.

2.  Hold the Test Light Tool Contacts to the Contact Points.
3.  Press a Static Stimulation Button on the Handheld Device.
4.  The Test Light will flash.
NOTE: At higher static stimulation levels, the Test Light will flash brighter.

Light still does not flash, contact the Customer Care Center.
