How to View Barking Records

• “W” shows the number of barking times per week, and each bar lights up to indicate that the dog barked 20 times. The digital record is based on the actual number of barking times, and the number stops calculating after 99 times.

Note:

1. Press the “M” button/”power button” at the same time for 3 seconds to restore the factory settings, and the record of barking times will be cleared.
2. After being turned on for more than 24 hours, the barking data of “D” will be automatically cleared for the day.
3. After being turned on, it will record the number of barking times from 1 to 7 days. When it reaches the 8th day, the data of the first day will be subtracted. The number of barks from days 2-6 is retained and added to the number of barks from day 8, and so on.

How to Find the Optimal Level for Your Dog
Follow the steps below to find the best level:

1. Start from sensitivity level 1 to see the reaction of the dog when it barks.
2. Gradually increase the sensitivity until your dog responds reliably.
3. If your dog still does not respond at sensitivity level 5, check “Wearing the Anti-Bark Collar” (p. 13). If your dog has long or bushy hair, a long contact point needs to be installed, or the hair around the contact point needs to be trimmed. If the “contact point” is not in contact with the dog’s skin, no static irritation will occur.

Note: For dog with shorter coats use the 2 contact points and install the conductive silicone caps onto the contact points to make it softer, which may be better for your dog’s skin. For dog with thicker coats, please install contact spring sheet.
If you have taken all of these steps and the dog is still unresponsive, see “How to Use the Test Light Tool” on page 12.

How to Install Contact Points

How to Use the Test Light Tool

1. Turn on the electric shock mode, select “5” level to enter the test.
2. Put the test light vertically on the 2 contact points, make sure the metal wire directly touches the top of the 2 points.
3. Say “WO WO” to the microphone, and the device responds to the buzzer beep and vibration functions when the first sound is detected. The test light will lighten after the 2nd sound is detected.

NOTE: For dogs with shorter coats, use 5 contact points and install the conductive silicone caps on the contact points to make them softer, which may be better for your dog’s skin.

Wearing a Bark Collar
The point of contact must be in direct contact with the dog’s neck skin. Check the tightness of the collar by inserting 2 fingers firmly between the collar and the neck.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Q: Why does the product not work when the dog barks?
  A: Please firstly make sure the contact points are in direct contact with the dog’s neck skin, but be able to put one finger can be placed between the strap and the pet’s neck. Some dogs bark very weakly, in this case, you need to increase the sensitivity level. There may also be a small chance that a thick coat around the neck will reduce the barking sensation. Trim the coat close to the area where the product will be placed.

• Q: Why is it sometimes triggered when the dog does not bark in a noisy environment?
  A: Although we have optimized the bark detection to the best, some very noisy environments may have a frequency similar to the bark and there may be a small chance of activating the product. Please decrease the sensitivity level in these very noisy environments.

  A: Dogs bark and get excited when they are playing. For your pet’s comfort and safety, we do not recommend using this product in such environments.
