Hints For Using; Maintenance - Dog trace d–control 440 User Manual

Hints for using

Do not place your remote controller close to objects sensitive to magnetic fi elds that might get
damaged and be out of repair.
Do not put your d–control in places exposed to high temperatures.
It is necessary to replace the batteries every two years and also in the case that the set is not used
for a long time. Never leave a fl at battery in your unit; it might leak and damage your unit.

Maintenance

Never use volatile agents such as thinners, petrol, or various cleaners to clean your DOGtrace™
d–control. Use a soft damped cloth and a neutral clearing agent if necessary.
The receiver (collar) DOGtrace™ d–control is water-tight only on condition of a good state of
the seal and after its treatment with silicone vaseline. If this is fulfi lled, your dog can even swim
with that. In order to maintain the water-tightness of your receiver, we recommend to replace the
rubber seal under the receiver's cover and treat it with silicone vaseline.
After every replacement of the battery in the collar, make sure that the seal is properly cleaned and
settled and that the screws are adequately tightened. Check them regularly and tighten them only
adequately!
The remote controller is dustproof and moisture resistant! It is defi nitely not suitable to expose it to
rain or spraying water. Protect it against water and moisture however it is possible. If it is dropped
into water, it will certainly be irrecoverably damaged or destroyed.
If you do not use the unit for a long time, remove the batteries from your remote controller and
receiver.
The collar will remember the preset confi guration (auto encoding). When you turn it on next time,
it will be in the mode you selected last time.
