Petsafe PDT17-16031 Guide De Démarrage Rapide page 3

• A collar worn for too long or made too tight on the pet's neck may cause skin damage ranging from
redness to pressure ulcers. This condition is commonly known as bed sores.
• Avoid leaving the collar on the dog for more than 12 hours per day.
• When possible reposition the collar on the pet's neck every 1 to 2 hours.
• Regularly recheck the fit to prevent excessive pressure; follow the instructions in this quick start guide.
• You may need to trim the hair in the area of the contact points. However, never shave the dog's neck; this may
lead to a rash or infection.
• Never connect a lead to a collar with contact points. It will cause excessive pressure on the contact points.
• When connecting a lead to a separate collar, do not allow it to put pressure on the training collar.
• Wash the dog's neck area and the contacts of the collar weekly with a damp cloth.
• Examine the contact area daily for signs of a rash or a sore.
• If a rash or sore is found, discontinue use of the collar until the skin has healed.
• If the condition persists beyond 48 hours, see your veterinarian.
