How to Express Train Your Dog to Commands Place the collar on the dog and make sure the fit is snug enough that the prongs are touching the dog’s skin, but not so snug as to irritate the dog’s neck. NOTE: U nlike most training collars manufactured by other pet companies, that use negative reinforcement to train your dog, the High Tech Pet Express Train uses positive reinforcement, in addition to corrective s timulus, for the most comprehensive dog training.
Charging the Transmitter When the battery is low, the LOW BATT light will illuminate. When this happens: 1. Plug the charger into a standard AC wall outlet. 2. Remove the rubber protector over the DC Charging Receptacle and insert one of the charger’s plugs into the Receptacle. The CHRG LED will illuminate. 3. When charging is completed the CHRG LED will automatically extinguish. Disconnect the charging plug from the transmitter. 4.
Troubleshooting 1. My dog is not reacting to the collar: • Make sure the receiver is turned ON and that you have programmed your collar to the receiver properly. • Make sure the collar strap is tight enough so both contact points are touching the dog’s skin. • If your dog’s coat is unusually long or thick, you may need to trim down the hair on the dog’s neck, so both contact points are touching the skin. • The battery may be low. Check for Low Battery LED and recharge if necessary. 2.
