4. After 5 seconds the receiver LED indicators will flash 3 times green and red colour
simultaneously. Afterwards the green and red LED indicators will start alternately
flashing.
5. Press down B1 or B2 button (or any other function button on the second
transmitter).
6. Successful pairing is indicated by a long beep tone of the receiver.
Warning: If you program the receiver from the switched OFF status (see
the chapter 7.4 Pairing (programming) function buttons A1/A2 with the first
receiver), the device that was programmed from the switched ON status will be
automatically removed (mostly used to remove the trainer's transmitter from
your receiver after the training is finished).
7.5 Choice of the contact points
The stimulation is transferred on your dog's skin through the steel contact points
of the receiver. Each set contains 2 types of contact points. Sufficient length of the
contact points has to have a contact with the dog's skin, enabling the device to
operate correctly. If you have a short-haired dog use the 12 mm contact points, if you
have a long-haired dog replace them with the longer 17 mm contact points supplied
in the kit. Screw the contact points onto the screws of the receiver - see the picture
5.2 Receiver in the chapter 5 Product description, page 25. Tighten them manually
carefully (do not use a pliers – this could damage the product).
TIP: If your dog has very long hair, you can order 21 mm long contact points.
When your dog has a dry skin in the area where the contact points are, it is good
to lubricate the dog's skin with a vaseline, hand cream, or baby oil - which enables
a correct transfer of stimulation impulses.
7.6 Fitting the training collar
The strap (receiver collar) with the receiver collar must be tightened enough so that
the contact points are in contact with the skin of the dog. We recommend you to fit
the collar on the standing dog. When you can fit two fingers between the collar and
your dog's neck, the collar with the receiver are tightened enough. If a dog has long
or thick hair, it is suitable to trim the hair in the area of the contact points or to switch
to the longer contact points to ensure a consistent contact.
Warning: If the collar is too loose, the receiver is likely to move and repeating
friction can irritate the skin of your dog. Furthermore, in this case it is not ensured
a reliable contact of contact points with the skin and a proper function of the
training collar. We do not recommend to leave the collar positioned at the
same place for more than several hours, because it could irritate the skin. If it is
necessary to wear the collar for long periods, change regularly the position on the
neck of your dog. A collar with a receiver that is overly tight, can cause pressure
sores on the skin in the contact area of the contact points. If this happens, do not
use the training collar until all traces of irritation are gone.
