Fit The Receiver Collar - Petsafe Commander PDT17 Manual De Funcionamiento

Turning the Receiver Collar ON and OFF
After installing the battery, use a coin to turn the Battery Cover to the ON (l) position. To extend the
life of the battery, turn the Receiver Collar OFF (O) when not in use.
Note: To verify the batteries are installed properly and the Remote Trainer is working, press Button 1
on the Remote Transmitter. You should hear the Tone from the Receiver Collar. If you do not hear the
Tone, you may have installed the batteries backwards. Check the batteries in the Remote Transmitter
and Receiver Collar to ensure they are oriented properly. If the Tone is still not audible, contact the
Customer Care Centre.
STEP 3

Fit the Receiver Collar

To assure a proper fit, please follow these steps:
1. Make sure that the Receiver Collar is turned OFF (O).
2. Start with your dog standing comfortably (3A).
3. Place the Receiver Collar on your dog's neck close to the ears.
Centre the Receiver Collar underneath your dog's neck. Make
sure the PetSafe logo in the front of the receiver is upright (3B).
®
Note: For long-haired dogs, it may be necessary to trim the neck
hairs along the path of the spray. It is important that
the spray reaches the dog's snout to be effective.
Do not shave the pet's neck as this
may increase the risk of skin irritation.
4. The Receiver Collar should fit snugly, yet loose
enough to allow one finger to fit under the nylon
collar (3C). Allow your dog to wear the Receiver Collar for several
minutes, then recheck the fit. Check the fit again as your dog
becomes more comfortable with the Receiver Collar.
5. Trim the nylon collar as follows:
a. Mark the desired length of the nylon collar with a pen. Allow for
growth if your dog is young or grows a thick winter coat.
b. Remove the Receiver Collar from your dog and cut off excess.
The Receiver Collar should not be worn for more than 12 hours out of every 24-
hour period. Leaving the Receiver Collar on too long could lead to skin irritation.
