When the battery is too weak, the product switches to safety mode and the system locks up.
You must charge the battery (full charge takes approximately five hours - see § Charge of the battery).

Changing the contact points
Two different series of contact points are supplied. The length of the contact points must be sufficient to have proper contact
with the pet's skin, enabling the device to operate correctly.
If you have a long-haired pet and the short contact points fitted to the collar in the factory are inadequate, remove and replace
them with the long ones supplied with the kit.
Carefully tighten them manually (do not use a key).

How to check that your pet fencing system is functioning properly
You can check that your pet fencing system is operating correctly at any time:
− Before doing so, make sure the receiver collar is turned Off (indicator light Off).
− Fix each wire of the neon test lamp under each contact point (unscrewing them lightly and retightening them so as to pinch
the test lamp wires).
− Turn On the transmitter and the receiver collar.
− Walk up to the antenna wire holding the collar by the strap at the same height and orientation as if on your pet's neck. At
some distance from the wire depending on the settings, the collar should emit beep sounds then, as you get closer to the
wire, the test lamp should light up.
− Before disconnecting the test lamp, make sure the receiver collar is turned Off (indicator light Off).
•
Fitting and positioning the collar
Fitting and positioning are very important. In fact, these settings determine the correct operation of the product (straying
detection, transmission of the stimulations).
The position of the collar around the neck of the animal should be in the following way: the On/Off indicator light on the collar
is visible and is not in contact with the breast of the animal.
To achieve best results from your system, the strap must be adjusted so that the contact points are in contact with the skin
of the animal.
− If the strap is too loose, the collar is likely to move and repeated friction can irritate the skin of your pet. Furthermore, the
collar will not function correctly.
− If the collar is too tight, the animal will have breathing difficulties.
The strap is properly adjusted when you can insert two fingers between the strap and your pet's neck.
If necessary, replace the short contact points with the long ones supplied with the kit (ref. § Changing the contact points).
