Safety Information

• Important: This device is not a toy. Keep out of reach of children.
• Do not use this collar on aggressive dogs.
• Avoid leaving the collar on the dog for more than 12 hours per day to prevent skin irritation.
• Regularly check the contact area for signs of irritation or sores. If found, discontinue use until the skin heals.
• Always start with the lowest stimulation level and gradually increase if necessary.
• Ensure proper fit; the collar should be snug but not overly tight.

Setup

1. Charging the Devices

Before first use, fully charge both the remote transmitter and the receiver collar.

1. Connect the USB charging cable to the charging ports on both the remote and receiver.
2. Plug the other end of the USB cable into a standard USB power adapter (not included).
3. The indicator lights will show charging status (refer to device indicators for specific colors/patterns).
4. Charging typically takes 2-3 hours. Disconnect once fully charged.

2. Attaching the Contact Points

Select the appropriate contact points (short for short-haired dogs, long for long-haired dogs) and screw them onto the receiver collar.

3. Fitting the Receiver Collar

1. Place the receiver collar around your dog's neck so that the contact points touch the skin.
2. Adjust the strap to ensure a snug fit. You should be able to fit one finger snugly between the collar and your dog's neck.
3. If the collar is too loose, the stimulation may not be consistent. If too tight, it can cause skin irritation.
4. Trim any excess collar strap if necessary, ensuring the cut end is sealed to prevent fraying.
