Collar fit is very important to both the effectiveness of SpotOn and the comfort and safety of your
dog. Follow these steps to ensure a proper fit:
1. Undo the clasp and place the collar
around dog’s neck to gauge the fit.
2. Unfasten the buckle, slide it to a
location that feels appropriate for your
dog’s neck size, and snap the buckle
into the nearest hole.
3. The collar should fit snugly and allow
you to comfortably fit two fingers
between the collar and your dog’s neck
next to the static contact points. Once
you have the proper fit on your dog,
tuck the excess strap underneath.
Ensure that the digital display is facing
the ground and the GPS antenna is on
the back of the dog’s neck facing the sky.
Helpful Hint
If you choose to use static correction with your dog, it is best to test the static correction points
before first use. To perform this simple test, place the contact point tester on the contact points and
firmly press to snap in place. Activate static correction by crossing the boundary of a map you have
created, or by using the App in training mode. If static correction is active you will see an orange
glow within the tester. The tester can also be used to loosen or tighten the contact points.
STEP 8: FITTING THE COLLAR
Remove the SpotON collar from your dog and plug it in. Do not shut it offjust plug it into the char-
ger provided. The Smart Collar will go to sleep, and the next day, when you unplug it and wake it
up, it will be ready to use, having retained the previously used map, and be able to quickly acquire
the GPS satellites.
If you want to turn the SpotOn Collar off, simply press the center POWER/ENTER button for 3 sec-
onds and release. You will see Shutdown? on the display. Press the right arrow to select YES. The
Collar will execute a power-down sequence and shut off. Once powered down, the collar will need
to reacquire GPS and cellular connectivity upon startup.
STEP 9: CHOOSE THE RIGHT TRAINING PROGRAM
Training is critical to the success of your SpotOn system—and to the happiness and safety of your
dog.
1. Visit SpotOnCollar.com and choose a training program that is best-suited for you and your dog.
Taking the time to do this correctly will ensure your dog remains safe and stress-free.
2. Your training program should start at home. Make sure your dog understands how
the SpotOn system works (i.e. tones and optional static corrections) before using it in an unfa-
miliar location.
3. Do not leave your dog unattended inside any SpotOn Virtual Smart Fence until he has been
properly trained.
