Status LED Indicator
The center status LED indicators flashes when the device
detects a bark or has a low battery charge.
LED Activity State Status
Flashing white A bark was detected, and no
correction was applied.
Flashing red Correction mode A bark was detected, and a

After a correction The battery is low.
Correction Methods
Stimulation: Applies a brief stimulation. You can manually
adjust the stimulation intensity level using the Garmin Canine
app.
Tone: Activates an audible tone. A tone can provide a patterned
interruption to stop a behavior. The tone can be more
effective when it is already associated with a negative
consequence or alternate behavior.
Vibration: Applies a vibration to the dog for a short period of
time to help break focus on the current cause of a behavior.
The effectiveness of the vibration may vary based on the
dog's temperament and experience.
Automatic Intensity
The device can set the stimulation intensity level automatically
based on the barking behavior of the dog. The device starts at
the lowest intensity level and increases the intensity level
gradually until the dog stops barking. When the dog is quiet, the
intensity decreases over time.
The automatic intensity feature is designed to eliminate
excessive nuisance barking. To stop barks sooner, you should
set the intensity level manually.
The extended panic guard is a safety feature that disables
stimulation after four corrections at the highest level, with 10
seconds between corrections. After the fourth correction, the
device waits until no barks are detected in 2 minutes.
NOTE: When you set a fixed correction level, the device does
not enter extended panic guard, even at the highest level of
correction.
Choosing the Correct Intensity Level
You should choose the lowest intensity level that discourages
the dog from barking. If you have never used a bark correction
collar with the dog, the dog requires time and experience to
learn that the bark is the cause of the correction.
1
From the Garmin Canine app, set the intensity to the lowest
level.
2
For thirty minutes, when the dog barks, observe the dog for a
reaction, such as a head shake, neck movement, a change in
the way the dog barks, or just a change in expression.
3
If there is no reaction, increase the intensity by one level until
the dog has a slight but recognizable reaction to the
stimulation.
4
Allow 24 hours for the dog to learn to respond by not barking.
5
If the dog continues barking while wearing the collar,
increase the intensity level gradually until you find the level
that discourages the dog from barking.
