1. Introduction
This manual provides essential instructions for the safe and effective use of your DOGOITM GPS Wireless Dog Fence System. Please read this manual thoroughly before operating the device to ensure proper setup, training, and maintenance. This system is designed to create a safe boundary for your pet using GPS technology, offering flexibility and convenience without the need for physical wires.
2. Safety Information
- Not for Aggressive Dogs: Do not use this product on aggressive, sick, or injured dogs. Consult a veterinarian or certified trainer if you are unsure if this product is suitable for your pet.
- Collar Fit: Ensure the collar fits snugly but comfortably. It should not be too tight to cause skin irritation or too loose to move around the dog's neck. Regularly check for pressure sores.
- Supervision: Always supervise your dog during initial training and until you are confident they understand the system's boundaries.
- GPS Signal: The system relies on a clear GPS signal. Performance may be affected by dense tree cover, tall buildings, or indoor use. Avoid setting boundaries near roads or hazardous areas without additional physical barriers.
- Charging: Use only the provided charging cable. Do not charge the device near flammable materials.
- Children: Keep the device out of reach of children.
3. Product Components
The DOGOITM GPS Wireless Dog Fence System typically includes:
- GPS Receiver Collar
- Adjustable Nylon Collar Strap
- USB Charging Cable
- Test Light Tool
- Contact Points (short and long)
- User Manual
4. Setup
4.1 Charging the Collar
- Connect the USB charging cable to the collar's charging port.
- Plug the other end into a standard USB power adapter (not included).
- Allow the collar to charge fully before first use. The indicator light will change to confirm full charge.
4.2 Fitting the Collar
Proper collar fit is crucial for effectiveness and your dog's comfort.
- Select the appropriate length of contact points for your dog's coat type (shorter for short coats, longer for thick coats).
- Attach the contact points to the receiver.
- Place the collar on your dog's neck, ensuring the contact points touch the skin.
- Adjust the strap so that two fingers can comfortably fit between the collar and your dog's neck.
4.3 Setting the GPS Boundary
The DOGOITM system offers easy setup without an app or traditional fence installation.
- Take the collar to the desired center point of your pet's containment area. Ensure you are in an open outdoor space with a clear view of the sky for optimal GPS signal reception.
- Turn on the collar. Wait for the GPS signal to stabilize (indicator light will confirm).
- Follow the on-screen instructions or button presses on the collar to set this location as the 'home' or 'center' point.
- Adjust the desired radius for the safe zone. The system typically allows a control distance radius from 65ft to 3290ft.
5. Operating the System
5.1 Warning Modes
The DOGOITM system utilizes three effective training modes to keep your pet within the set boundary:
- Beep (0-1 level): An audible warning tone.
- Vibration (0-5 levels): A tactile warning.
- Shock (0-10 levels): A static correction.
5.2 Adjusting Intensity Levels
Refer to the collar's display and buttons to adjust the intensity levels for vibration and shock modes. Start with the lowest effective level and increase only if necessary. Always use the beep mode as the primary warning.
5.3 GPS Signal Considerations
For optimal performance, ensure the collar has a clear line of sight to the sky. Performance may be reduced in areas with heavy foliage, dense urban environments, or indoors. If the GPS signal is lost, the collar may enter a safe mode or issue warnings based on its last known boundary. It is recommended to remove the collar when indoors to prevent unintended corrections due to signal distortion.
6. Maintenance
6.1 Cleaning
Regularly clean the collar and contact points with a damp cloth. Ensure the contact points are free of dirt or debris to maintain proper function. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
6.2 Battery Care
The collar is rechargeable. To prolong battery life, avoid fully discharging the battery frequently. Charge the collar when the battery indicator is low. Store the collar in a cool, dry place when not in use.
6.3 Waterproof Feature
The DOGOITM GPS Wireless Dog Fence Collar is IPX6 waterproof, meaning it can withstand powerful jets of water. This makes it suitable for use in various outdoor conditions, including rain, and allows your dog to swim or bathe while wearing it.
7. Troubleshooting
- Collar not turning on: Ensure the battery is charged. If fully charged and still not turning on, contact customer support.
- No GPS signal: Move to an open area with a clear view of the sky. Avoid dense tree cover or tall buildings. Allow a few minutes for the collar to acquire a signal.
- Inconsistent corrections: Check collar fit; contact points must make proper contact with the dog's skin. Ensure the GPS signal is strong and stable.
- Collar zaps dog indoors: This is expected due to GPS signal distortion indoors. Remove the collar when your dog is inside the house.
- Short battery life: Ensure the collar is fully charged. Battery life can vary based on usage and environmental factors.
- Collar not responding to boundary: Re-establish the center point and boundary radius. Ensure the collar has a stable GPS signal.
