Fit the Receiver Collar

9
Important: The proper fit and placement of your Receiver Collar is important for effective training.
The Contact Points must have direct contact with your pet's skin on the underside of his neck.
CAUTION
To prevent an unintended correction, after the Boundary Flags have been placed, be sure to set the static correction on the
Receiver Collar back to level 1 Tone Only.
Please read and follow the instructions in this manual. Proper fit of the collar is important. A collar worn for too long or made too tight
on the pet's neck may cause skin damage. Ranging from redness to pressure ulcers; this condition is commonly known as bed sores.
• Avoid leaving the collar on the dog for more than 12 hours per day.
• When possible reposition the collar on the pet's neck every 1 to 2 hours.
• Check the fit to prevent excessive pressure; follow the instructions in this manual.
• Never connect a lead to the electronic collar; it will cause excessive pressure on the contacts.
• When using a separate collar for a lead, don't put pressure on the electronic collar.
• Wash the dog's neck area and the contacts of the collar weekly with a damp cloth.
• Examine the contact area daily for signs of a rash or a sore.
• If a rash or sore is found, discontinue use of the collar until the skin has healed.
• If the condition persists beyond 48 hours, see your veterinarian.
• For additional information on bed sores and pressure necrosis, please visit our website. These steps will help keep your pet
comfortable and safe. Millions of pets are comfortable while they wear stainless steel contacts. Some pets are sensitive to contact
pressure. You may find after some time that your pet is very tolerant of the collar. If so, you may relax some of these precautions. It is
important to continue daily checks of the contact area. If redness or sores are found, discontinue use until the skin has fully healed.
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.
