SWING MICROCHIP & SWING MICROCHIP LARGE:
MORE FREEDOM FOR YOUR PET, MORE SAFETY FOR YOURSELF
The SWING flap is as useful for your pet as it is for you. You can use it to set him free to come in and out of
your house, giving him freedom that would otherwise be denied. At the same time, thanks to the
microchip working, you will be sure you won't have any unwanted guests in your home. Besides, with all
its functions the SWING MICROCHIP flap can be made to fit all your requirements: you can allow your pet
to re-enter but not to go back out. You can arrange it so that the flap opens just for him. You can even see,
with just one glance, if he is indoors or outdoors. Let's see how.
The microchip system: a key especially for him.
The flaps are equipped with an innovative electronic system, which allows identifying only your pet,
having an implanted microchip or wearing the provided collar with microchip. When your pet approaches
the door, the sophisticated device will detect the previously recorded microchip and will unlock the door.
If the microchip will not be identified, the door will not open thus preventing unknown pets from entering
in your house.
ALL THE ADVATAGES OF SWING MICROCHIP FLAPS
• Recording capacity
SWING MICROCHIP can record up to 32 different microchips, being ISO 11784 with 15 digits (Fig.7A).
SWING MICROCHIP LARGE can record up to 30 different microchips, being ISO 11784 with 15 digits
(Fig.7B).
• The 4-way locking system: you'll decide! (Fig.1)
The SWING pet flaps has been designed to meet all your requirements and those of your pet. For this
reason you can rely on the original 4-way locking system that enables you to control the usage by your
pet. You can choose between the following: ACCESS ONLY / EXIT ONLY / ACCESS AND EXIT / CLOSED.
• Windstopper system (Fig.8)
It's the innovative system preventing draughts.
• The last in or out direction indicator: you always know where they are (Fig.2)
SWING MICROCHIP uses the last IN or OUT direction indicator. It is a system that will help you know
whether your pet is indoors or outdoors. This feature is useful if you have to go out and you can't find your
pet. A quick glance is sufficient: the "flag" (see picture) on the bottom part of the flap will point in the last
direction in which he went through the flap after it closed. (This devide is not available on SWING
MICROCHIP LARGE model).
Warning! In severe weather conditions (wind, etc.) the total reliability of this system cannot be
guaranteed. If your pet should open the flap without actually going through the tunnel, the indicator
would not be reliable.
HOW TO TEACH YOUR PET TO USE THE SWING FLAP
To teach your pet how to use the SWING MICROCHIP flap is much easier than you think. It is important not
to expect too much from him but to let him learn in his own time. The easiest way for your pet to discover
it is to leave the flap completely open. Animals are curious by nature and will be quickly tempted to go
through the open flap towards freedom. If this is not the case – and your pet isn't that adventurous – you
can always fall back on a foolproof method: of blackmail, metaphorically speaking. Simply prepare his
favourite food and put it in front of its nose, firstly on one side of the flap and then the other side. Your pet
will just not be able to resist the temptation. Once your pet has got used to going through the flap, it's time
to face the next step. Leave the pet flap closed, but not locked: your pet, who now considers the flap to be
its own, will not think twice about pushing it to get to the other side. And if this doesn't happen straight
away, go back to the old food 'blackmail' method. One sniff and your dog or cat will naturally attempt to
reach its target. It's a proven method. Often a move of house may provide another reason to install the flap.
If you have just moved, remember that your pet also needs time to become familiar with their new
surroundings too. Therefore don't rush: Only when your pet feels perfectly at home, will it feel the need to
discover all the secrets and new adventures, amongst which, its own private door. As for the lock, you
need a little patience: only start to lock the flap once your pet is used to coming in and going out of it.
HOW TO INSTALL WITHOUT MISTAKES
Read these instructions carefully and you will find that the pet flap is easier to install than you think. The
tools required are the following: Template (supplied in the pack), Pencil, Drill, Jig saw, Screwdriver.
• Wooden doors (Fig.3)
1 Measure the belly height of your pet from the floor and position the template (side A) on the door with the
bottom at the same height. Mark around the perimeter of the TEMPLATE on the door using the marker
(Fig. 3A).
2 Drill 4 holes in the corners of the marked area (Fig. 3B).
3 Cut along the perimeter using the jig saw to join the 4 holes (Fig. 3C).
4 Smooth the edges using a file or sandpaper (Fig. 3D).
The biggest job is done. Go to paragraph "Fit the flap".
• Glass doors (Fig.4)
Warning! Cutting glass can be dangerous. You must consult a glass merchant before starting the job. It
is impossible to drill holes in toughened safety glass or double-glazing unless they have already been
drilled when the panes are manufactured.
1 Measure the belly height of your pet from the floor and position the template (side A) on the door with the
bottom at the same height (Fig. 4A). Then follow the below instructions according to the model you have
purchased:
2 SWING MICROCHIP - Mark the bottom side using a marker, you will use it as the base to center the
compasses on the points marked on the template. Drill a circular 108 mm diameter hole (the centre of the
hole is marked on the template). (Fig. 4B)
3 SWING MICROCHIP LARGE - Mark the bottom side using a marker, you will use it as the base to center the
compasses on the points marked on the template. Drill 4 circular holes on the 4 coners of the flap, then cut
the tangents of the 4 holes in order to get only one opening on the glass (the centres of the holes are
marked on the templete). (Fig. 4C)
The biggest job is done. Go to paragraph "Fit the flap".
• Metal doors (Fig.5B)
Follow the same instructions as those for wooden doors. The only difference lies in the fact that the
electronic system does not work near metallic objects. It is to be isolated using a non-metal material
