4. HOW TO FIND THE RIGHT STIMULATION

The 4500 EDGE unit comes installed with the rheostat dial on the
transmitter. The rheostat intensity dial controls the stimulation level, with
level 1 being the lowest level and level 127 being the highest. Switch
to the included selector style intensity dial with 8 levels of stimulation,
with 1 being the lowest level and level 8 being the highest. The level of
stimulation best suited for your dog depends on your dog's temperament
and threshold for stimulation. Always start at the lowest level and work
your way up. The appropriate level can be found when the dog responds
to the stimulation with a mild reaction, such as a tensing of the neck
muscles. The stimulation level may vary depending on the training
situation. When highly distracted, dogs will require a higher level of
stimulation.

5. TO MAXIMIZE THE DISTANCE

The Dogtra 4500 EDGE has a 1-mile range. The range may vary
depending on the way the transmitter is held. Hold the transmitter away
from your body to receive the greatest range. For maximum signal
strength, keep the Dogtra 4500 EDGE properly charged.

6. THE LED INDICATOR

The LED indicator flashes every 4 seconds when the receiver is on and
ready for use. The LED indicator will blink on both the transmitter and
the receiver when the transmitter buttons are pressed.
The LED indicator color indicates the battery life level.
Green = Fully charged, Amber = Medium, Red = Needs charging
If the unit is used while the LED indicator is red, it will shut down
automatically.

7. CHARGING THE BATTERY

1. Lift the rubber-charging cap and plug in the charger.
2. Plug the adapter's power plug in to a standard AC wall outlet. The
LED indicator on the transmitter and receiver/collar will turn red.
3. When the unit is fully charged, the LED indicator will turn green on
both the transmitter and receiver/collar. Unplug the adapter's power
plug from the AC wall outlet and disconnect the charger from the
unit.
