• You should expect hundreds of recharge cycles from your batteries. However, all
rechargeable batteries lose capacity over time relative to the number of recharge cycles
they experience. This is normal. If your operating time drops to half of the original life,
contact the Customer Care Centre.

Fit the Receiver Collar
Important: The proper fi t and placement of your Receiver Collar is important for
effective operation. The Contact Points must have direct contact with your dog’s skin on
the underside of his neck.
To assure a proper fi t, please follow these steps:
1. Make sure that the Receiver Collar is turned off.
2. Start with your dog standing comfortably (
3A ).
3. Place the Receiver Collar high on your dog’s neck close to the
ears. Centre the Contact Points underneath your dog’s neck,
touching the skin (
3B ).
CAUTION
Risk of skin damage.
You may need to trim the hair in the area of the Contact Points.
Never shave the dog's neck; this may lead to a rash or infection.

4. Check the tightness of the Receiver Collar
by inserting one fi nger between the collar
and your dog’s neck (
3C ). The fi t should be
snug but not constricting.
CAUTION
Risk of skin damage.
You should not make the collar any more tight
than is required for good contact. A collar that
is too tight will increase the risk of pressure
necrosis in the contact area.
5. Allow your dog to wear the Receiver Collar
for several minutes then recheck the fi t.
Check the fi t again as your dog becomes
more comfortable with the Receiver Collar.
Care and Cleaning
To ensure the effectiveness of this product and
the comfort and safety of your dog, check
3C
the fi t of his collar frequently. This Guide describes proper collar fi tting. If you notice
that your dog is experiencing skin irritation, discontinue use of the collar for a few days.
If the condition persists beyond 48 hours, see your veterinarian.
To prevent skin irritation from occurring:
• The Receiver Collar should not be worn for more than 12 hours out of every
24-hour period.
• Your dog’s neck and the Contact Points must be washed weekly with a damp cloth.
• Be sure that your pet’s neck is thoroughly dry before placing the Receiver Collar back
on his neck.
