Understanding the Transmitter
This handheld device signals the collar receiver to pro- duce stimulation and/or tone. The transmitter is water- resistant and should not be immersed in water or placed in a dishwasher.
Transmitter Buttons:

C (CONTINUOUS) you control the length of stimulation by the time you press the button. For
a short stimulation, press and release the button. For a longer stimulation, hold the button down. A maximum of 10 seconds may be applied before the safety feature to prevent
M (MOMENTARY) delivers a brief, pre-meas- ured tap.
BOOST sends continuous stimulation 2 levels higher than the currently selected level. For example, if the stimulation level is set at Level 2,
a touch of the Boost control will stimulate at Level 4. Some trainers like instant access to a higher setting for circum- stances where the dog may not respond to lower levels, such as around high distractions.
TONE produces a tone from the collar. No stimu- lation is delivered.
+(LEVEL UP) increases stimulation level
–(LEVEL DOWN) decreases stimulation level INNOTEK®’s Rapid Ramp™ feature means when
you hold down the Level Up/Down button for more than a fraction of a second, the digits will advance/decrease rap- idly; great in getting to higher stimulation levels quickly.

The ADV transmitters use two
Understanding the Receiver
The ADV units use a LED light to let you know the status of the collar.
•Blinking green light – collar is on and ready to use
•Pulsating red light – stimulation is being delivered
•Pulsating green – tone only being delivered
•Blinking red light – low battery; charge as soon as possible
•Solid green light –
•Blinking yellow light – collar should be matched to transmitter
Testing the Receiver
•Hold the test light across the receiver probes
•Press the transmitter button for stimulation
•Test light will illuminate for the length of time stimula- tion is being delivered
•The intensity of the light will increase as the level increases
Charging the Receiver
The receiver has a
Collar should be fully charged once every
The receiver will need to be matched with the transmit- ter after charging. Follow Step 2 of the Quick Start Guide.
Matching the Transmitter and Receiver
Locate the red dot on transmitter and on receiver. Hold the transmitter dot to the receiver dot until the receiver LED glows green, then amber. Separate the dots and immediately press and hold the transmitter “C” stimula- tion button. The collar LED will pulsate red to indicate stimulation is being delivered. The components now work together.
Training Tips
•Watch the included video to get the basics for training your dog properly with a remote trainer.
•Always praise your dog for good behavior!
•Teach him what the commands mean before introduc- ing the collar as a reinforcement tool.
•Keep training sessions brief, about ten minutes of
•Dogs learn through repetition. You may have better success if you can elicit an undesired behavior when you can anticipate it. For example, if the dog misbe- haves and jumps on visitors, have someone come in and out of the front door several times over a
•Always end a training session on a positive note. Let the dog have success. This way he’ll look forward to the next session.
•Training should be fun for both you and your dog. Never train when you are angry. If you get frustrated during training, stop and come back to it later. Your dog will learn better when you are both relaxed.
•We recommend your dog be at least six months old before starting a remote training program. You will be asking your dog to concentrate for periods of time and to remember what you have taught. Young puppies do not necessarily have the required mental development or attention span for these activities.
•The goal of training is to condition your dog to respond to your verbal commands under all situations. You should plan on using the collar for at least four months. A good rule is, once started with a remote trainer, to always have the collar on when you take the dog out. This will ensure that he will always be imprinted with the correct response to your com- mands and that you are always in control.

Troubleshooting
If the collar appears not to be working, try the following:
•Adjust the collar strap to fit.
•Test the receiver, if no light, recharge the battery in the receiver.
•If the transmitter LED is out, replace the transmitter batteries.
•Turn ON the components as shown in the Quick Start Guide.
•Rematch the components as shown in Step 2 of the Quick Start Guide.
•Check that the probes are tightened.
•Ensure that the probes are touching the dog’s skin.
•Trim the dog’s hair or use the longer probes to ensure proper skin contact. Never shave the dog’s neck.
•Use a stronger stimulation level.

| your dog. |
5. | Any collar worn for extended periods can cause a con- |
| dition similar to bedsores, known as Pressure |
| Necrosis. To reduce the possibility, you must do the |
| following: |
•Never leave the collar on the dog for more than 12 consecutive hours.
•Examine the dog’s neck daily for any signs of a rash or a sore.
•Supervise your dog during the first 2 days of training.
•Check the fit to prevent excessive pressure; you should be able to insert one finger between the collar strap and your dog’s skin.
•Wash the dog’s neck area and the probes of the collar weekly with a wash cloth and mild hand soap; rinse thoroughly.
•If the condition persists beyond 24 hours, see your veterinarian.
6.Always use the rubber insulators between the collar strap and probes to provide insulation in damp condi- tions.
7.Other collars and metal tags should be removed when using the remote training collar as they may interfere with proper operation.
8.Do not attempt to dismantle or repair any components of this system; doing so will void the warranty in full. The computerized circuitry should be serviced only by an authorized expert.
9.Realize that because dogs have unique teperaments, there is no way of knowing how your dog will react to the introduction of a remote training collar system. For the safety of your dog, a long lead should be used dur- ing initial training so you have control of the situation.
10.If you have reason to believe that your dog many pose a danger to others, harm itself, or react adversely to the collar, do not rely solely on this product to train your dog. If your dog shows signs of growling, snarling or biting while using the collar, stop immediately. Aggression in dogs has many causes. We recommend that you consult a knowledgeable professional dog trainer or animal behaviorist with experience with aggressive dogs if your dog has shown any of these characteristics.
11.Occasionally, a dog cannot be trained to respond to a remote training collar. Sometimes even a properly trained dog may disobey a command. Therefore, INNOTEK, its distributors, and dealers cannot guaran- tee that the system will in all cases keep the cus- tomer’s animal from disobeying commands.
