4. Setup

4.1 Iċċarġjar tal-Kullar

Before initial use, fully charge the YS600 collar. The 2-hour rapid charge battery ensures quick readiness. A red light will indicate when the battery is low, signaling it's time to recharge.

4.2 Twaħħil tal-Għonq

Proper fit is crucial for the collar's effectiveness and your dog's comfort. The collar strap is adjustable and can be cut to fit your dog's neck size. Ensure the contact points are touching your dog's skin. The 5/8" surgical steel contact points are suitable for dogs with short to medium fur.

The collar should be snug enough that the contact points make reliable contact with the skin, but not so tight as to cause discomfort or restrict breathing. You should be able to fit one or two fingers snugly between the collar strap and your dog's neck.

4.3 Initial Intensity Setting

When first using the YS600 anti bark collar, always start at the lowest stimulation level (Level 1). Observe your dog's reaction. If your dog continues to bark without responding, gradually increase the stimulation level one step at a time. Closely monitor your dog’s reaction to find the right stimulation level for your dog. The goal is to find the lowest effective level that deters barking.

5. Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi

5.1 Turning On/Off and Adjusting Intensity

The YS600 collar features an On/Off and Intensity Dial on the top of the receiver unit. To turn the collar on, rotate the dial from the "OFF" position to your desired intensity level (1-10) or the "P" (Pager) setting. A green flashing light indicates the collar is on and ready for use.

The "P" setting provides a high-performance pager vibration warning without static stimulation. This can be used as an initial deterrent or for sensitive dogs. Levels 1-10 provide increasing levels of static stimulation, preceded by the pager vibration.

5.2 Bark Detection and Correction

The accelerometer bark sensor ensures that the collar only reacts to your dog's barking and is not triggered by ambient noise. When your dog barks, the collar will first emit a vibration warning. If barking continues, it will then deliver the static stimulation at the selected intensity level.

5.3 Persistent Bark Indicator

The persistent bark indicator will illuminate if your dog has barked excessively while wearing the collar, suggesting that you may need to increase the correction level to a more effective setting.

5.4 Using the PetsTEK Clicker for Training

The included PetsTEK Clicker can be used for positive reinforcement training. When your dog exhibits desired quiet behavior, use the clicker and immediately reward them with a treat or praise. This helps associate quietness with positive outcomes.
