order, with an active battery and ensu-
re the reservoir is full.
It may take a few days for your dog to
quieten down. During the first few
days of use, he may completely empty
the device with his barking. It is
important never to let the device run
dry while it is on your dog, otherwise
he will learn that he can empty it by
barking! We strongly advise to keep
an eye on your dog during the first
few days of use, so that you will be
able to refill the reservoir as soon as
necessary. Try the device at the
weekend, for example, so that you
have time to observe your dog and join
in the training.
3 - To get the best results
We advise you to be present for the
initial tests. When the dog barks, the
spray is triggered and stops the
barking through the surprise effect of
the spray emission.
As soon as your dog has calmed down,
praise and start play with him. This
way, your dog will understand that
there are other ways to work off
tension, and wearing the Aboistop is
not unpleasant.
4 - Normal use
Your dog must not wear his Aboistop
constantly, use it only when you want
to stop him from barking. As soon as
you remove the Aboistop, your dog will
revert to normal behaviour.

5 - Troubleshooting
- First check that the device is in wor-
king order (battery working and
reservoir filled, see. 1 Preparing the
collar).
- If the collar still does not work,
the battery may be flat. In this case,
you can purchase an identical one
from your supplier or large electrical
stores.
- If the device still does not work, you
can contact our after-sales service
department (address on guarantee
card).
If the dog continues barking:
- The Aboistop unit may be faulty.
Please contact our after sales service
department.
- Stop using the collar and seek pro-
fessionnal advice from your veteri-
nary surgeon or animal behaviourist.
VERY IMPORTANT
- If your dog usually wears a chain
collar or metallic address tags, you
will have to take them off while
using the Aboistop.
- The unit is splash proof, but must not
be immersed in water.
- Never refill the Aboistop when it is
on your dog's neck. You could dama-
ge the filling valve and frighten the
dog.
- Remove the battery when not in use.
- Do not leave the device or the refill
at a temperature above 45°C.
- Do not attempt to take the unit apart
as you will damage the mechanism
and invalidate the guarantee.
- The use of a mobile telephone less
than 1 metre away from an
Aboistop® may sometimes trigger
release of spray due to electroma-
gnetic interference.
- Only use refills and batteries identi-
cal to those supplied in the original
pack, available from your supplier.
- Do not fill the reservoir through the
microphone.
- Keep the refill canister and unit out
of reach of children.
