WARNING
Any person with individual device for cardiac assistance (pacemaker, defibrillator) must take
precautions when they use CANICOM 400.
These devices emit some static magnetic fields (a magnet is located in the remote control)
(Frequency= 915 MHz, at = 0.75 mW).
The device complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules.
Any technical changes or modifications on the receiver collar or on the remote control not
expressly approved by the manufacturer shall void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment.
Thank you for choosing a DOGTEK product.
Before using your CANICOM 400, please read the instructions in this guide carefully and keep it for future
reference.
Before using CANICOM 400, we advise you to have your dog checked by your vet to ensure it is
fit to wear a collar.
Check your dog’s neck regularly, the repeated rubbing or the contact points against the
animal’s skin may cause irritation. If this happens, remove the collar until all signs of skin
irritation have disappeared.
Start with the lowest level of stimulation and define the level from which your dog reacts by
increasing gradually.
Do not hesitate to contact a professional trainer for any further advice.
