2. Persediaan dan Pemasangan
2.1 Charging the Collar
Before initial use, fully charge the NanoBark Collar. Connect the provided USB charging cable to the collar's charging port and a compatible USB power source. The collar's indicator light will show charging status. A full charge can take approximately 2-3 hours.
2.2 Memasang Kolar
Proper fit is crucial for the NanoBark Collar to function effectively and safely. The collar should be snug enough for the contact points to touch your dog's skin, but not so tight as to cause discomfort or restrict breathing. Ensure the collar fits dogs with neck measurements between 6 and 13 inches.
- Measure Neck Girth: Measure your dog's neck at the base, where the collar will sit. If you don't have a tape measure, you can use a string or leash and then measure it against a ruler.
- Position the Collar: Place the collar on your dog's neck so that the PetSafe logo is centered under their chin and the contact points are positioned on either side of their windpipe.
- Adjust Snugly: Adjust the strap so that you can comfortably fit one finger between the contact point and your dog's neck. The collar should not be loose, as this can lead to inconsistent correction or rubbing.
- Trim Excess Strap: If the strap is too long, you may trim it after ensuring the correct fit. Use a lighter to singe the end of the nylon strap to prevent fraying.

3. Operating the NanoBark Collar
3.1 Cara Ia Berfungsi
The NanoBark Collar uses PetSafe's proprietary Perfect Bark™ technology. This technology employs a unique sensor that detects both vibration from your dog's vocal cords and the sound of their bark. This dual-detection system ensures that only your dog's bark activates the correction, minimizing false corrections from other noises or other dogs.

3.2 Static Stimulation Levels
The collar features 10 levels of static stimulation. The system automatically adjusts the correction level based on your dog's barking habits. It starts at the lowest level and increases if barking continues, then resets to the lowest level after a period of quiet. This adaptive approach helps your dog learn to associate their barking with the correction.
For more information on PetSafe's correction types, you can refer to the general guide below:

3.3 Initial Training Period
It is recommended to introduce the collar gradually. Allow your dog to wear the collar for short periods without activation to get accustomed to it. Observe your dog's reaction to the collar's corrections. Most dogs show noticeable results in just 2 weeks.
