The collar batteries are not taking a charge. Either
you need new batteries (page 16) or the battery charger is
not working. See whether the collar light is glowing red while
connected to the charger. The power may not be working.
Try another wall outlet. If using a power strip, make sure
it is switched on and working.
You are using the wrong transmitter. If you own more
than one Sport
® Series transmitter, or train with someone
who has a Sport ® Series unit, check that you have not
accidentally switched transmitters.
PROBLEM #2: The Remote Trainer doesn’t have range,
or the range has been significantly reduced.
The antenna is not installed in the transmitter or is
broken or loose. The antenna must be installed in the
transmitter for proper function. Page 9. Check the antenna
for physical damage and replace if needed.
You are using the short range antenna. The Mighty Micr o
antenna gives 60% of normal range. Use the regular 3-inch
antenna for maximum range.
Either you or the dog is shielded by a metal structure.
Metal fences, chain link dog enclosures, screen doors, buildings,
and other metal structures can affect the radio signal. Operate
the Remote Trainer away from these structures.
The receiver is on backwards. Position the collar so that the
light faces toward the dog’s nose. Page 10.
You’re experiencing temporary radio interference. Radio
signals from nearby CBs and walkie talkies can reduce range.
Wait a short while then try again, or move to another area.
PROBLEM #3: The stimulation seems too high,
not high enough, or the dog does not seem to
feel it at all.
The collar strap is not tight enough. The collar should be
snug. Contact points must press against the dog’s skin to
provide efficient, consistent stimulation. Page 10.
The intensity position is not correct. The ideal intensity
level depends on the dog and the training situation.
