For The Best Results - Dog trace d–control 600 Service Instructions Manual

For the best results

Training orders, you are sending to your dog, are transmitted from the transmitting unit to
the collar equipped with the receiver by radio waves. The propagation of radio waves is
infl uenced by a series of factors and under normal conditions the range of this unit is
approximately 600–1600 metres (depending on geographic conditions and surroundings).
If you want to get the best results with your unit, adhere to the following instructions:
To achieve the best range for your communication, hold your remote controller in your
hand and do not cover its front part (the antenna is located there).
If you hold your remote controller in front of you with your hand reached out, the range
will get longer.
Before using your training set, always check the batteries in the remote controller and
in the collar and replace them if necessary.
The power of batteries slightly falls down at temperatures below 0 °C. If it is possible,
keep your remote controller warm (e.g. in your pocket) and take it out only for use.
SELECTION OF ELECTRODES
Every package contains readily two kinds of electrodes. If your dog is small and its fur is
short, use short electrodes. If your dog is of medium built or big, use long electrodes.
ATTACHMENT OF THE COLLAR
The strap of the collar must be adjusted so that the electrodes can be in contact with the
dog's skin. When the strap is too slack, the collar is likely to move and repeated fi ction may
irritate your dog's skin. Moreover, in this case the contact with the skin surface is not reliable
and the same holds true for proper operation of the collar.
We do not recommend you to leave your dog wearing the collar for several hours in the same
place as it might cause skin irritation. If it is necessary for your dog to wear the collar for
a long time, change its position on your dog's neck.
TIP
If you attach the receiver on your dog's neck laterally,
you will extend the range of transmission.
