• Connect the USB cable to the charging port on the remote and collar.
• Plug the other end into a standard USB power adapter (not included).
• The indicator light will show charging status and turn solid when fully charged.

4.2 Pairing the Collar and Remote

The collar and remote are typically pre-paired from the factory. If re-pairing is needed:

1. Ensure both devices are charged and powered on.
2. Refer to the specific pairing instructions in the detailed user manual for your model, as steps may vary.

4.3 Attaching Contact Points

Select the appropriate length of contact points (short for short-haired dogs, long for long-haired dogs) to ensure proper contact with your dog's skin. Screw them firmly onto the collar unit.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Powering On/Off

• Remote: Press and hold the power button until the screen illuminates. Press and hold again to power off.
• Collar: Press and hold the power button until the indicator light turns on. Press and hold again to power off.

5.2 Switching Modes

The remote allows you to switch between wireless fence mode and remote training mode. Use the dedicated mode button on the remote to toggle between these functions.

6. Training Modes

The system offers three distinct training modes to help guide your dog's behavior:

• Beep (Sound): Emits an audible tone as a warning. This is typically the first level of correction.
• Vibration: Provides a gentle vibration. Levels 0-10 allow for intensity adjustment.
• Safe Static: Delivers a safe static pulse. Levels 0-99 allow for precise intensity adjustment based on your dog's temperament and sensitivity.

Always start with the lowest effective setting and gradually increase if necessary. The goal is to get your dog's attention, not to cause distress.

7. Boundary Setup

The wireless fence creates a circular safe zone around the remote control unit. The range is adjustable from 30 to 1300 feet (9 to 396 meters).

1. Place the remote control unit in a central location within the desired containment area.
2. Adjust the range setting on the remote to define the perimeter.
3. Walk the perimeter with your dog (on a leash initially) to identify the boundary. The collar will emit a warning beep and vibration as your dog approaches the set boundary.
4. Use flags (not included) to mark the boundary visually during initial training.

For remote obedience training, the system's range extends up to 3800 feet (1158 meters).

Both the remote and collar feature rapid charging, reaching full power in approximately 2 hours.

• Collar Battery Life: Up to 24 hours of continuous use in boundary mode, or up to 185 days on remote standby.
• Memory Function: Boundary settings are retained after power-off, eliminating the need to reset each time.

Tip: Exit wireless dog fence mode when not in use to conserve power.

9. Waterproof Collar & Security

The perimeter dog collar is rated IPX7 waterproof, making it suitable for various outdoor conditions including rain, lakes, and snow. The remote control is not waterproof and should be protected from moisture.

10. Collar Fitting

Proper collar fit is crucial for effectiveness and your dog's comfort. The collar is adjustable and suitable for dogs weighing 10-130 lbs, with neck sizes up to 23.6 inches.

1. Place the collar around your dog's neck so that the contact points touch the skin.
2. Ensure the collar is snug enough that two fingers can barely fit between the strap and your dog's neck.
3. Trim any excess strap length if necessary, ensuring a comfortable fit without being too tight or too loose.

• Inspect for Wear: Regularly check the collar strap and unit for any signs of wear, damage, or loose components.
• Charge Regularly: Keep both the remote and collar charged, especially if storing for extended periods, to maintain battery health.
