checking/ replAcing bAttery
When the battery is too weak for the
operation of the product, beep sounds
indicate it in 2 cases:
- When switching On the collar: a series of
close beep sounds + number of beeps
meant to indicate the operating mode are
emitted
- When switching Off the collar: a series of
close beep sounds is emitted
Prepare to replace the battery.
When the battery is too weak, the product
works in safety mode, which means that it is
out of use.
Due to increased use during your dog's
training, your first battery may not last as
long as replacement batteries.
DOGTEK advises to use the same type and
same brand of batteries as those supplied
in your new purchased product. Other
brands of batteries may not operate, or
may not be completely compatible with
your product.
You can purchase the suitable batteries
from DOGTEK or from your distributor.
Replace the old battery with a new one as
follows:
- Remove the 2 screws from the battery cover
using a screwdriver.
- Remove the battery cover.
- Knock out the battery by using the supplied
magnet (magnetic key) or by tapping
briefly the case in the palm of your hand.-
Insert the new battery paying attention to
the polarity indicated under the battery
holder (See Diagram 2).
- A beep sound is emitted indicating that
the battery was properly inserted. If you
do not hear any beep sound after inserting
the battery, immediately remove it from
the battery holder by using the supplied
magnet (magnetic key) or by tapping
briefly the case in the palm of your hand.
Check the polarity before inserting the
battery once again. If you still do not hear
any beep sound, check the operation by
switching the collar On and Off.
- Put the battery cover back in place
- Retighten moderately the 2 screws.

chAnging the sensor

Two different length sensors are included in
the package. The size should be long enough
to have proper contact with the dog's skin,
enabling the device to operate correctly.
If you have a long haired dog and the short
sensor fitted to the collar in the factory is
inadequate, remove the short sensor and
replace it with the long one supplied with
the kit.
When changing the sensor, do not press
on the threaded rod, it could damage the
components underneath. A moderate
manual screwing is sufficient (do not use
any tools). If you screw the sensor too tight,
bark detection is likely to be inefficient.

fitting the collAr

The strap should be adjusted so that the
sensor comes into contact with the dog's skin
in order to ensure good barking detection.
- If the strap is too loose, the collar will not
operate properly. Also, it might move
around the dog's neck, this repeated
rubbing of the sensor on the skin can cause
irritation.
- If the strap is too tight, the dog will have
difficulties in breathing.
Regularly check your dog's neck as repeated
rubbing of the sensor on the dog's skin may
cause irritation. If this happens, remove the
collar until all signs of skin irritation have
disappeared.
Do not leave the collar more than 8 hours
a day around your dog's neck and take the
time to check that there are no signs of
irritation when your dog is not wearing it.
checking the Device
operAtes correctly
- Switch on the collar (turn the collar on
mode 3, thus you will be able to check the
operation of the ultrasound and vibration).
- Slowly rub the sensor on a slightly rough
surface (change the detection sensitivity if
necessary).
- The collar will emit ultrasound and/
or vibration (according to the chosen
configuration).
IMPORTANT: after being activated 5
times in quick succession, the collar will
automatically go into safety mode for 15
seconds, before restarting itself normally.
