2. Attaching Contact Points and Rubber Covers
Select the appropriate contact points and rubber covers based on your dog's coat length.
- Use short contact points and covers for dogs with short coats.
- Use long contact points and covers for dogs with long coats.
- Screw the chosen contact points onto the receiver.
- Place the conductive rubber covers over the contact points to protect your dog's skin from direct metal contact and prevent irritation.
3. Fitting the Receiver Collar
Proper fit of the receiver collar is crucial for effective and safe operation.
- Place the receiver collar around your dog's neck so that the contact points are underneath, making direct contact with the skin.
- The collar should be snug, but not too tight. You should be able to fit one finger comfortably between the collar strap and your dog's neck.
- Adjust the nylon strap to ensure the contact points maintain consistent contact.
- Avoid leaving the collar on your dog for more than 12 hours per day to prevent skin irritation.
Operating Instructions
1. Turning On/Off
- Receiver Collar: Press and hold the power button on the receiver until the LED indicator lights up (usually green). To turn off, press and hold the power button until the LED indicator turns off.
- Remote Transmitter: Press any button to activate the remote. The LCD screen will light up. The remote will automatically enter sleep mode after a period of inactivity.
2. Training Modes
The iDOO Dog Training Collar offers three training modes: Beep, Vibration, and Static Shock.
Image: Visual representation of the three training modes: Beep Mode (suitable for initial training), Vibrate Mode (for correcting behaviors like digging, barking, jumping, biting, chewing), and Shock Mode (recommended as a last resort).
- Beep Mode: Press the Beep Button (speaker icon) on the remote. The receiver will emit an audible tone. This mode is ideal for initial training and gaining your dog's attention.
- Vibration Mode: Press the Vibration Button (vibration icon) on the remote. The receiver will vibrate. The vibration intensity can be adjusted from level 1 to 8 using the intensity level adjustment buttons on the side of the remote.
- Static Shock Mode: Press the Shock Button (lightning bolt icon) on the remote. The receiver will deliver a static shock. The shock intensity can be adjusted from level 1 to 16. This mode should be used as a last resort and with caution.
Important: Always start with the lowest intensity level for vibration and shock modes and gradually increase only if necessary, observing your dog's reaction. The goal is to get their attention, not to cause pain.
3. Remote Range
The remote transmitter has a wireless range of up to 330 yards (approximately 1000 feet), allowing for flexible training indoors, in your backyard, or during outdoor activities.

4. Channel Selection
The remote transmitter allows for training multiple dogs (if additional receiver collars are purchased). Use the Selecting Channels button to switch between different receiver collars.
Maintenance
1. Cleaning
- Regularly clean the receiver collar and contact points with a damp cloth.
- Ensure the charging port is free of debris.
- The nylon collar strap is washable.
2. Waterproofing
The receiver collar has an IPX7 waterproof rating, meaning it can withstand immersion in water up to 1 meter for 30 minutes. This allows your dog to swim, bathe, or be trained in the rain without damaging the receiver.
