Package Contents

Upon opening your BXQ Dog Bark Collar package, you should find the following items:

• 1 x BXQ Bark Collar Unit
• 1 x Adjustable Nylon Collar Strap
• 2 x Sets of Metal Contact Points (Short and Long)
• 1 x Set of Silicone Covers for Contact Points
• 1 x Magnetic USB Charging Cable
• 1 x Test Light Tool
• 1 x User Manual

Setup

1. Attach the Collar Strap: Thread the adjustable nylon strap through the slots on the bark collar unit. Ensure it is securely fastened.
2. Choose and Install Contact Points: Select the appropriate length of metal contact points (probes) based on your dog's fur length. For longer-haired dogs, use the longer probes to ensure proper contact with the skin. Screw the chosen probes firmly onto the back of the collar unit. For added comfort and to prevent direct metal contact, place the silicone covers over the metal probes.
3. Adjust Collar Fit: Place the collar around your dog's neck. Adjust the strap so it fits snugly but not too tightly. You should be able to insert two fingers between the collar and your dog's neck. The contact points must touch your dog's skin for the vibration/shock functions to be effective.
4. Charge the Device: Connect the magnetic USB charging cable to the charging port on the collar unit. Plug the USB end into a compatible USB power source (e.g., USB adapter, power bank, car charger, laptop/PC). A full charge typically takes about 2 hours and provides up to 15 days of use.

Operating Instructions

1. Power On/Off: Press and hold the power button on the collar unit for 3 seconds to turn it on or off. The display will light up when powered on.
2. Select Training Mode: The collar offers 4 training modes:
   • Beep Only
   • Beep + Vibration
   • Beep + Shock
   • Beep + Vibration + Shock
   Press the 'M' button to cycle through the modes. You can choose a 'No Shock' mode if preferred.
3. Adjust Sensitivity Levels: The collar has 7 adjustable sensitivity levels. Use the '+' and '-' buttons to increase or decrease the sensitivity. A higher sensitivity level means the collar will react to softer barks.
4. Adjust Vibration/Shock Levels: For modes involving vibration or shock, you can also adjust their intensity across 7 levels using the '+' and '-' buttons.
5. Automatic Anti-Barking & Protection Mode: The collar is 100% automatic. It detects your dog's barking and triggers the selected correction. For safety, if the collar is triggered more than 7 times within 30 seconds, it will temporarily stop working for 2 minutes (the digital display will show "E") to prevent over-correction.
6. Anti-Interference Technique: The upgraded smart chip in the BXQ collar is designed to recognize only your dog's bark, minimizing false triggers from other dogs or loud noises.

Maintenance

• Charging: Recharge the collar using the provided magnetic USB cable when the battery indicator shows low power. Avoid using damaged cables or non-compatible chargers.
• Waterproofing: The collar is IP65 waterproof, meaning it is protected against low-pressure water jets from any direction. Your dog can wear it during swimming, bathing, or in rainy conditions. However, prolonged submersion is not recommended.
• Cleaning: Periodically clean the collar unit and strap with a damp cloth. Ensure the contact points are free of debris to maintain effective operation.

Troubleshooting

• Collar not activating on bark: Ensure the collar is fitted correctly with the contact points touching the skin. Adjust the sensitivity level to a higher setting. Check if the battery is charged.
• False triggers: The collar features an anti-interference technique. If false triggers occur, try lowering the sensitivity level. Ensure the collar is not too loose, as excessive movement can sometimes cause false activations.
• Collar not charging: Verify that the magnetic charging cable is properly connected to the collar and the power source. If the issue persists, try a different USB port or adapter. A top review mentioned issues with charging after about a month, so ensure proper care of the charging port and cable.
• Collar enters protection mode ("E" on display): This is a safety feature. The collar will resume operation after 2 minutes. If this happens frequently, consider adjusting the sensitivity or training mode.
