Congratulations and thank you for purchasing our
RedHead RH360 Remote Dog Trainer. The
RH360 Dog Training Collar is durable, safe and
very humane when used correctly. This training
system offers Maxx-Range™ technology, the
industry’s only internally woven antenna in the
collar. With a 360 yard range, the RH360 is
perfect for general obedience training around the
home. The RH360 features fifteen levels of
stimulation intensity, with an easy ‘no-look’
clicking intensity selection dial. This model
includes both the Continuous Stimulation and the
Beep function. The collar unit is rechargeable
and features our Quick-charge and SmartLED
light that lets you know when charging is
complete. There is also a Battery Saving Mode to
extend the life of the collar battery. The Collar
Receiver is 100% waterproof and can be worn
even when the dog is submerged. The automatic
safety shut-off feature stops the stimulus from
both the Transmitter and the Collar Receiver to
prevent accidental or prolonged stimulation. We
hope you and your dog both enjoy using your
RH360. Happy training!

PARTS & FUNCTIONS
Intensity Selection Dial
The intensity selection dial allows you to choose between
15 different levels of stimulation for very precise control.
On the ‘M’ setting, you can choose between regular and
Battery Saving Mode* (see page 12).
Transmitter Antenna
Be sure to check that the antenna is securely fastened to
the transmitter before each use. Hand-tighten only: over-
tightening can cause damage to the antenna or the
antenna mount.
Magnet Indicator (Red Mark)
The Magnet Indicator marks the location of the magnet in
the Transmitter. The magnet is used to turn the Collar
Receiver ON/OFF and for ID reprogramming.

When any of the buttons on the transmitter is pushed,
the LED light will turn on to indicate that the transmitter is
being operated. When the battery is low, the LED light
will flash rapidly.

Stimulation from the Collar Receiver to your dog.
Pressing the “Beep” button emits an audible beep from
the Collar Receiver.
*IMPORTANT NOTE:

The Magnetic Switch Indicator is an “M” showing where
the Magnetic Activation Switch is located. You can use
the Magnetic Indicator on the Transmitter or the
Activation Magnet on the Buckle to activate and
deactivate your Collar Receiver (see page 11).

The LED light on the Collar Receiver will turn on when
Magnet Indicator is held against the Magnetic Switch
Indicator. When the Collar Receiver is ON, the LED light
will flash once every 2 seconds in normal mode and
double-flash every 2 seconds in Battery Saving Mode.
You will also see flashes when applying Continuous
Stimulation or Beep. When the collar battery is low and
needs to be replaced, the LED will flash rapidly (about 3
times every 2 seconds) while the Collar Receiver is ON.
Speaker
Emits an audible beep when “Beep” button is pushed.
Collar Belt with Embedded Receiver Antenna
The Collar Belt is adjustable to fit a wide range of neck
sizes (see page 15). The embedded collar antenna is
woven into the Collar Belt, and it is about 4 inches long.
You should be able to feel the embedded antenna on the
nylon belt.
