Proper Fit: The collar strap fit
should be snug, yet loose
enough to allow one finger to
fit between the strap and
dog's neck.
Caution: Check your dog's skin
Reduce your dog's risk of developing Pressure Necrosis, a potentially serious condition caused by excessive
pressure of the collar receiver probes against your dog's skin. Be sure to take the following precautions:
• Do not leave the collar receiver on your dog for more than 12 hours a day, or when you are away from home.
• Read and follow ALL instructions for use as described in this operation guide.
• Do not put the collar strap too tightly on your dog. You should be able to slide a finger between the strap and
your dog's skin. If you cannot slide a finger between the strap and your dog's skin, loosen the strap until you
can.
• Examine your dog's neck daily for signs of irritation or discomfort. If you observe any unusual conditions such
as redness, tenderness, or raw skin, discontinue use of the product for 48 hours. If the condition persists, con-
sult your veterinarian.
• Wipe the collar receiver probes and your dog's neck daily with a damp cloth and mild hand soap. Wipe thor-
oughly and dry completely. Note the BC-50B is not waterproof; never submerge in water.
STEP 2 Power Up
BC-200E: The No-Bark Collar will have a partial charge when you receive it; however, the collar must be fully
charged prior to use.
Remove the gray receptacle plug. Connect the receiver to the 12-v DC adapter that has been supplied. The
collar's light will glow solid red during charging. Allow 14-16 hours for a full charge. Remember to replace the
gray receptacle plug when charging is complete.
• Always charge the collar at or near room temperature. Charging at low or high temperatures can reduce bat-
tery life.
• The low battery indicator is a blinking red light, once every 5 seconds. Always charge the collar when the low
battery indicator first appears.
• The long-life battery will self-discharge at the rate of 1 percent per day. Therefore, when not using the sys-
3. The probes should be one inch above or below the dog's vocal cords, where vibra-
tion from the vocal cords can best be detected.
4. Fit the collar strap as snugly as possible, without restricting breathing. You should
be able to fit just one finger between the strap and your dog's skin. Make sure both
probes contact the dog's skin.
5. If your dog has a small neck size, you may wish to trim the excess strap length.
Remove the collar from your dog, and trim the excess, leaving 4-6 inches/10-15 cm
(if desired). To prevent fraying of the nylon strap, carefully singe the end with a lit
match.
6. NOTE: An improper loose fit is the #1 troubleshooting issue among owners of No-
Bark Collars. The collar strap must be very snug on your dog's neck. Make collar
adjustments until you are satisfied with the fit, before powering the unit.
