3. Setup and Installation
3.1 Charging the Devices

- Connect the charging cable to the charging port on both the remote and the collar.
- Plug the other end of the cable into a compatible USB power adapter (not included), computer, or power bank.
- Once charging is complete, ensure the charging port cover on the collar is securely sealed to maintain its waterproof rating.

3.2 Installing Contact Points (Optional for Stimulation)
If you plan to use the stimulation feature, install the appropriate contact points. For long-haired dogs, use the longer metal sheets to ensure proper contact with the dog's skin. For short-haired dogs, the shorter contact points or silicone caps may be sufficient.
- Select the appropriate metal sheet or contact points based on your dog's coat length.
- Screw the chosen contact points securely onto the collar receiver.
- If not using stimulation, install the silicone caps over the contact points for comfort.

- Thread the collar strap through the receiver unit.
- Adjust the strap length using the buckle to achieve the appropriate size for your dog.
- Trim any excess strap if necessary, ensuring the cut end is smooth.
