Tips for Pairing Wireless Sensors, Replacing the Collar Strap

Page 45 highlights

Tips for Pairing Wireless Sensors • Verify that the sensor is compatible with your Garmin device. • Before you pair the sensor with your Garmin device, move 10 m (33 ft.) away from other sensors with ANT+ technology. • Bring the Garmin device within range 3 m (10 ft.) of the sensor. • After you pair the first time, your Garmin device automatically recognizes the sensor each time it is activated. This process occurs automatically when you turn on the Garmin device and only takes a few seconds when the sensors are activated and functioning correctly. • When paired, your Garmin device receives data from only your sensor, and you can go near other sensors. Replacing the Collar Strap Before you replace the collar strap, you must remove all dirt, water, and debris from the device (Cleaning the Device, page 33). 1 Pull the collar strap out of the GPS antenna, antenna guide, and the dog device. You may need to push and pull the collar strap to properly remove it. You may need to loosen the screw on the GPS antenna case, but do not remove them. 2 Thread the new collar strap through the dog device, antenna guide, and GPS antenna. 3 If necessary, tighten the screws that secure the GPS antenna case. Changing the Fuse in the Vehicle Power Cable NOTICE When replacing the fuse, do not lose any of the small pieces and make sure they are put back in the proper position. The vehicle power cable does not work unless it is assembled correctly. If your device does not charge in your vehicle, you may need to replace the fuse located at the tip of the vehicle adapter. 1 Rotate the end piece counter clockwise to unlock it. TIP: You may need to use a coin to remove the end piece. 2 Remove the end piece, the silver tip , and the fuse . 3 Insert a new fast-blow fuse that has the same current, such as 1 A or 2 A. 4 Place the silver tip in the end piece. 5 Push in the end piece and rotate it clockwise to lock it back into the vehicle power cable .
