Safety Features; Changing The Contact Points; Fitting And Positioning The Collar - Dogtek EF-4000 Guía De Uso

The mode is changed by pressing and holding the push button: a number of beeps (from 1 to 8) is then
emitted by the collar.
Keep the button pushed in to run through the modes. Release once the desired mode is reached: the collar
memorizes the configuration you have selected.
Checking the selected mode:
If you need to, or as your dog's behavior changes as he becomes used to the collar, you can check the mode
you selected previously.
A short press on the push button under the battery cover enables you to activate the beep and count the
number of beeps corresponding to the mode selected (1 to 8 beeps)

SAFETY FEATURES

The EF-4000 pet fencing system comes complete with 3 safety features:
wire break alarm
•
If the antenna wire breaks or if a connection fails, the transmitter will alert you to this operating default
by emiting continuous beep sounds
warning zone timer
•
After about 20 seconds of continuous presence in the warning zone, your dog will be signalled
to leave the zone by the emission of a few short stimulations (stimulation level depending on the
selected mode).
stimulation zone timer
•
If your dog remains in the stimulation zone for approximately 20 seconds, the collar stops emitting
stimulations. The normal functioning resumes when your dog leaves this zone.

CHANGING THE CONTACT POINTS

Two different sizes of contact points are supplied. The length of the contact points must be sufficient to have
proper contact with the dog's skin, enabling the device to operate correctly.
If you have a long-haired dog 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 by hand (do not use a tool).

FITTING AND POSITIONING THE COLLAR

Fitting and positioning the collar is very important. In fact, the collar position determines the correct
operation of the product (straying detection, transmission of the stimulations).
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 dog.
• If the strap is too loose, the collar is likely to move and repeated friction can irritate the skin of your dog.
• If the collar is too tight, the dog will have breathing difficulties.
