If you have a long-haired dog and the short contact points fitted to the collar in the factory are inadequate,
remove and replace them with the long ones supplied with the kit. Carefully tighten them manually (do
not use a key).
How to check that your CANICOM 200 FIRST is functioning properly
You can check that your CANICOM 200 FIRST is operating correctly at any time.
- Before doing so, make sure that the receiver collar is turned « off ».
- Place the neon test lamp in contact with each of the contact points (by unscrewing them then by
screwing them up in order to grip wires of the lamp under the contact points).
- Turn « on » the remote control and receiver collar.
- Press the "1" button then modify the level of intensity of the stimulations by pressing the buttons 2 to 5:
the test lamp will come on with more or less intensity.
Getting the best results
The training instructions you send to your dog are sent from the remote control to the receiver collar by
radio waves. These radio waves are sensitive and the range reaches approximately 200 meters /
220 yards (depending on geography and environment).
The performances of your CANICOM 200 FIRST will be optimal if you respect the following
recommendations:
- To obtain a good radio range, do not cover the part located above the buttons when you hold the remote
control in your hand.
- The position of the receiver collar around the neck of the dog should be in the following way: the
"On/Off" indicator is visible and is not in contact with the breast of the dog.
- Check the batteries (remote control and receiver collar) before using the unit and replace them as soon
as the level of load is weak.
- The performances of the batteries decrease slightly under temperatures lower than 0°C. If possible
keep the remote control warm (e.g. Inside a pocket) before using it.
Fitting the collar
The strap must be adjusted so that the contact points are in contact with the skin of the dog.
- If the strap is too loose, the collar is likely to move and repeated friction can irritate the skin of
your dog. Furthermore, it will not function correctly.
