Safety information
•
Please use the LEUCHTIE only for its designated purpose.
•
Do not attach a lead to the LEUCHTIE and avoid holding your dog by the LEUCHTIE. Too much
force on the LEUCHTIE could cause the battery and other parts to fall out and get lost.
•
LEUCHTIE is not a dog toy!
The LEUCHTIE can be damaged and might open if it is used too heavily (e.g. throwing or
vigorous biting). In this case, small parts such as batteries, contact springs, etc. can fall out and
be lost or even swallowed by the dog, which may lead to serious injuries. If this happens
nevertheless, please immediately contact a veterinarian, who can take the appropriate measures
if necessary.
•
If you notice any defects, do not use the LEUCHTIE. If you notice a sudden wave of heat after ac-
tivation from the battery pack, detach the battery pack immediately. Do not place on dog.
•
Make sure that no moisture gets inside the LEUCHTIE when it is open – especially when cleaning
it or changing the batteries. When fully closed, the LEUCHTIE is protected against water and
moisture completely. Should you nevertheless notice moisture inside the LEUCHTIE, separate
the tubing and the battery pack with a slight angular movement (see figures page 1) and let both
parts dry overnight.
•
Do not expose the LEUCHTIE to temperatures of more than 60 °C.
•
Do not dry or heat the LEUCHTIE in the microwave under any circumstances - the microwave
radiation would destroy the electronics immediately.
•
In order to achieve the best results please recharge at room temperature (5 – 25 °C).
•
Do not disassemble, heat or short-circuit the built-in batteries.
•
Swallowing the batteries can be fatal! For this reason, please keep both the batteries and the
product out of reach of small children (and your dog). In case a battery is swallowed, please seek
medical assistance immediately.
•
The LEUCHTIE is 100% waterproof, however if you have a dog that is super active and powerful,
and is likely to crash into the water or waves, then we recommend securing the silicone sleeves
with some additional clear DUCT tape. This will prevent the grip of the silicone sleeves from re-
leasing. Same goes for dogs prone to rush through densely wooden areas where branches may
knock the product open.
Cleaning
Clean the LEUCHTIE in warm water and soap or mild detergent if required. You can also use some
rubbing alcohol on a microfiber cloth. Do not use aggressive or solvent-based cleaners! When
cleaning the LEUCHTIE, please pay attention that the silicone sleeves are closed properly to prevent
humidity from entering.
