Quick Start
Step 1
Adjust the Collar Strap
Place receiver collar on your
dog with the receiver hanging
directly beneath your dog’s neck.
Adjust the collar securely so
that the contact points touch the
skin of your dog’s neck. Make
sure the collar is not so tight as
to cause discomfort. When the
collar is properly adjusted, you
should be able to place one fi n-
ger between a contact point and
the dog’s skin. If your dog has a
small neck size, you may wish to
trim the excess strap length.
Charge the collar for 14-16
hours. Be sure to cover the
charge jack with the gray plug
when done.
The collar is activated when the
unit is charged. Simply put the
collar on your dog and enjoy the
peace and quiet. Innotek
®
Auto-Set feature will do all
the work.
Step 2
Power Up
Step 3
Using the Collar
BC-200-22
No-Bark Collar
Your Dog’s First Session
Monitor your dog during his fi rst session. This is when he
will learn what the collar means. Dogs learn at different
speeds. It may take several barks or even several sessions
for your dog to reduce his barking. Don’t worry – the
Auto-Set feature starts at the lowest level and will adjust
to the right level to motivate your dog to stop barking. The
collar will remember the correct level between uses.
Resetting the Collar
The BC-200-22 resets to the lowest level each time it is
charged. You may also reset the collar by recharging for as
little as one minute.
Testing the Collar
You may wish to test the collar from time to time. To test
the collar, gently rub the contact points on a hard non-glass
surface like a tabletop. A solid red LED indicates that the
unit is functioning properly. Only when certain the collar is
working properly should you place the collar on your dog.
Troubleshooting
If the collar appears not to be working, try the following:
• Adjust the collar strap to fi t
• Recharge the battery
• Check that the contact points are tightly screwed into
the receiver
• Ensure that the contact points are touching the dog’s skin.
If your dog has a long or thick coat, you have two options
to ensure contact: either trim the hair around the contact
points or switch to the longer contact points included with
your system.
CAUTION
You may need to trim the hair in the area
of the contact points. Never shave the dog’s neck; this
may lead to a rash or infection.
Components
The BC-200-22 has a waterproof collar that can be
submerged in water during a dog’s normal activities; do not
place in a dishwasher.
Two sets of contact points are included so you can choose
what’s right for your dog’s coat.
The BC-200-22 is powered by a rechargeable NiMH battery.
When the battery is low and needs to be charged, a red light
will fl ash once every fi ve seconds. The red light will glow
steadily while being charged.
IMPORTANT ADVICE
1. Read the complete manual and follow all directions. If you have any questions, please call the
Customer Care Centre.
2. This device is intended for use only on dogs. Never attempt to use it for any purpose not
described in this manual.
3 An electronic collar should only be used under close supervision by the dog’s owner.
KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
4. Never perform set-up procedures while the collar is on your dog.
5. The proper fi t and placement of your receiver collar is important for effective training. The contact
points must have direct contact with your pet’s skin on the underside of his neck.
CAUTION
Please read and follow the instructions in this manual. Proper fi t of the collar
is important. A collar worn for too long or made too tight on the pet’s neck may cause skin
damage. This is called bed sores; it is also called decubitus ulcers or pressure necrosis.
• 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.
• Check the fi t to prevent excessive pressure; follow the instructions in this manual.
• Never connect a lead to the electronic collar; it will cause excessive pressure on the contacts.
• When using a separate collar for a lead, don’t put pressure on the electronic 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.
For additional information on bed sores and pressure necrosis, please visit our website.
These steps will help keep your pet safe and comfortable. Millions of pets are comfortable
while they wear stainless steel contacts. Some pets are sensitive to contact pressure. You
may fi nd after some time that your pet is very tolerant of the collar. If so, you may relax some
of these precautions. It is important to continue daily checks of the contact area. If redness
or sores are found, discontinue use until the skin has fully healed.
6. Always use the rubber insulators between the collar strap and contact points to provide
insulation in damp conditions.
7. Do not attach a lead or tags to the No-Bark Collar. You may put a separate non-metallic collar
on your dog’s neck and attach a lead or tags. Be sure the extra collar does not interfere with the
contact points.
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 temperaments, there is no way of knowing how your dog
will react to the introduction of a No-Bark Collar system. For the safety of your dog, a long lead
should be used during initial training so you have control of the situation.
