5. Getting Started
Inserting the batteries:
• The device is powered by a 9V battery (6LR61).
• Open the cover of the battery compartment [ ] under the microphone [ ] by
pushing it downwards.
• Insert the batteries. Make sure that the polarity is correct and as shown in the batte-
ry compartment.
• Close the battery compartment by sliding the cover back on.
Mounting and Use:
The Bark-Stopper can be mounted to the wall with the wall bracket [ ] and taken out
when needed:
• For the mounting location choose the area where the dog frequently barks.
• Make sure that the device is mounted out of reach of the dog.
• Choose a location where the sound can easily distribute itself.
• Switch the device on by using the I/O switch [ ].
• The sensitivity switch [ ] has two settings with which the sensitivity of the micro-
phone can be set:
Low: effective range approximately 3 m – 4 m
High: effective range approximately 6 m – 7 m
• The device will switch on if the dog barks continuously over 10 to 20 seconds. The dog
will learn to link the uncomfortable sound with his barking and after a time it will
stop barking.
• Praising the dog and giving it treats will accelerate the learning process.
