Battery Life; Fit The Bark Control Collar; Choose Between Three Bark Control Settings - Petsafe HBC11-14014 Manual De Funcionamiento

Battery Life

Average battery life is 3 to 6 months, depending on how often your dog barks. However, due
to greater use during your dog's training, your first battery charge may not last as long. To
conserve battery life, turn the Bark Control collar off when not in use.

Fit the Bark Control Collar

Important: The proper fit and placement of your Bark Control collar is
important for effective operation. The Contact Points must have direct
contact with your dog's skin on the underside of his neck.
To assure a proper fit, please follow these steps:
1. Make sure the Bark Control unit is off.
2. Have your dog standing comfortably (A).
3. Place the Bark Control collar on your dog's neck close to
the ears. Center the Contact Points underneath your dog's
neck, touching the skin (B).
Note: It is sometimes necessary to trim the hair around the
Contact Points to make sure that contact is consistent.
Do not shave the pet's neck as this may
increase the risk of skin irritation.
4. Check the tightness of the Bark Control collar by inserting
one finger between a Contact Point and the dog's neck
(C). The fit should be snug but not constricting.
5. Allow your dog to wear the collar for several minutes, then
recheck the fit. Check the fit again as your dog becomes
more comfortable with the Bark Control collar.

Choose Between Three Bark Control Settings

The Stubborn Dog Bark Control collar has three bark control settings that allow you to choose
how corrections are delivered. The modes are indicated on the digital display by light color(s)
and the numeric indicator.
1. The patent pending Temperament Learning mode tracks the number of corrections needed to
substantially reduce (and in most cases eliminate) the number of nuisance barks. The system
provides 10 levels of static correction. It begins with a low-level correction (Level 0). However,
if excessive barking continues, the correction intensity will increase with each successive bark
(to a maximum of Level 9) until the barking stops. This correction level becomes the starting
level the next time the dog barks. Once your dog has learned to reduce his barking, the initial
warning corrections are automatically reduced.
2. The Progressive Correction mode starts at the lowest level (Level 0) and progresses to the next level
(to a maximum of Level 9) each time your dog barks within 30 seconds of the previous bark. If your
dog does not bark again within 30 seconds, the correction level will automatically reset to Level 0.
