2. Pairing the Collar and Remote

The collar and remote are usually pre-paired from the factory. If re-pairing is needed or if you are adding a second collar:

1. Ensure both devices are turned off.
2. Turn on the remote control.
3. Press and hold the power button on the collar receiver until the indicator light flashes rapidly.
4. Within 10 seconds, press any mode button (Beep, Vibration, or Boost Vibration) on the remote.
5. The collar's indicator light will stop flashing and remain solid, indicating successful pairing.

3. Fitting the Collar

Proper fit is essential for the collar's effectiveness and your dog's comfort. The PAWPRO collar is adjustable and suitable for dogs weighing from 3kg to 60kg.

• Choose the appropriate contact points (short for short-haired dogs, long for long-haired dogs) and screw them onto the receiver.
• Place the collar around your dog's neck, ensuring the receiver is positioned centrally on the underside of the neck.
• Adjust the strap so that it is snug but not too tight. You should be able to fit one or two fingers comfortably between the collar and your dog's neck.
• Trim any excess strap length if necessary.

Operating Instructions

The PAWPRO training collar offers three distinct modes to assist in your dog's training:

1. Beep Mode (8 Levels)

This mode emits an audible tone from the collar. It is ideal for initial training, recall, or as a warning before applying a vibration. The intensity of the beep can be adjusted.

• Press the Beep button on the remote to activate.
• Adjust the beep intensity using the level adjustment buttons on the remote.

2. Vibration Mode (16 Levels)

The collar vibrates, providing a tactile cue to your dog. This mode is effective for gaining attention, correcting unwanted behaviors, or reinforcing commands. There are 16 adjustable intensity levels.

• Press the Vibration button on the remote to activate.
• Adjust the vibration intensity using the level adjustment buttons on the remote.

3. Boost Vibration Mode (16 Levels)

This is an enhanced vibration mode, providing a stronger tactile stimulus. It is designed for urgent situations or for dogs that require a more pronounced cue. Like the standard vibration, it has 16 adjustable intensity levels.

• Press the Boost Vibration button on the remote to activate.
• Adjust the boost vibration intensity using the level adjustment buttons on the remote.

Training Tips

• Start with Low Levels: Always begin with the lowest effective intensity level for each mode and gradually increase if necessary.
• Consistency is Key: Use the collar consistently for specific commands or behaviors.
• Positive Reinforcement: Pair collar cues with verbal commands and reward desired behaviors with praise or treats.
• Short Training Sessions: Keep training sessions brief and positive to maintain your dog's engagement.
• Exceptional Range: The 3000m range allows for training in open spaces, ensuring control even at considerable distances.

Training Multiple Dogs

The PAWPRO remote control features a dual-channel system, allowing you to train two dogs simultaneously with a single remote. Switch between channels using the designated button on the remote.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: Regularly clean the collar strap and receiver with a damp cloth. Ensure the contact points are free of dirt or debris.
• Battery Care: To prolong battery life, avoid fully discharging the devices frequently. Recharge regularly, especially if storing for extended periods.
• Water Resistance: The collar receiver is IPX7 waterproof, meaning it can withstand submersion in water up to 1 meter for 30 minutes. However, always ensure the charging port cover is securely closed before exposing it to water. The remote control is not waterproof and should be kept dry.
• Storage: Store the collar and remote in a dry, cool place when not in use.
