Operation

Reinforce Learning Behaviours

Use the training collar to reinforce commands when your dog responds slowly or inconsistently.

1. Set the receiver collar to the initial stimulation level and test it.
2. Fit the receiver collar on your dog's neck with their regular collar.
3. Allow your dog to move around the training area. Give a command and simultaneously press one of the training buttons.
4. When your dog moves towards you, release the button and reward with praise.
5. If your dog stops or turns away, repeat the command and continue the vibration/beep. Reward when they respond. Repeat 3-4 times.

Tips:

• If your dog doesn't respond initially, continue training sessions without increasing stimulation.
• Ensure commands are always enforceable with the collar during training.
• Allow time for your dog to associate the vibration/beep with their behavior (can take a week or more).
• Train up to 3 dogs with one transmitter (additional receivers sold separately).

Note: This collar is for training, not punishment. Used correctly, it's a safe tool to build communication and strengthen your bond.

Charging

Charging the Remote Transmitter

1. Connect the charging cable to the charging port.
2. Connect the charger to a USB power adapter (not supplied).
3. The battery indicator flashes during charging and becomes solid when complete.

Charge the Receiver

1. Open the charging port cover and connect the charging cable.
2. Connect the charger to a USB power adapter (not supplied).
3. The indicator flashes red during charging and turns solid red when fully charged.

Note: Both devices require a 2-hour charge before first use.

Transmitter and Receiver Management

Turn the Transmitter On/Off

• On: Press the power button. The backlight turns on. It will turn off after 30 seconds of inactivity.
• Off: Press the power button.

Turn the Receiver Collar On

Press the power button once. The receiver emits a short “beep”. The indicator flashes red every 8 seconds.

Check Receiver Battery Level

With the receiver on, double-press the power button. The number of beeps indicates the battery level:

Turn the Receiver Collar Off

Press the power button once. The receiver emits a short “beep” and the indicator stops flashing.

Tips:

• The collar cannot receive signals while charging.
• Low battery triggers a 10-second beep and automatic shut-off. Recharge as needed.
• If stored for extended periods, charge at least once a month.

Pairing the Transmitter and Receiver

1. Turn on the transmitter and select a channel using the CH button.
2. Adjust intensity levels using the “+” and “-” buttons (ensure level is above 1).
3. Turn on the receiver. It will emit a short “beep”, and the indicator will flash red every 8 seconds.
4. Press and hold the receiver's power button for 2 seconds. The indicator will flash rapidly for 10 seconds. During this time, press a training button (tone & vibration/vibration/tone) on the transmitter within 10 seconds.
5. Press a training button again. The receiver will emit a corresponding sound/vibration, confirming successful pairing.
6. To pair additional receivers, select a different channel and repeat steps 2-5.

Test the Training Collar Functions

After pairing, test each function before attaching the collar to your dog.

• Vibration function: Press the vibration button (intensity above 01). The receiver should vibrate.
• Tone function: Press the tone button. The receiver should emit a beeping sound.
• Light function: Press the light button. The white LED on the transmitter will turn on.

Tips:

• Ensure the correct channel is selected for signal transmission.
• Pair the transmitter and receiver before use.
• The transmitter enters sleep mode after 30 seconds of inactivity; press any button to reactivate.
• When the transmitter is off, only the LED light button remains functional.

Training & Automatic Anti Bark Modes

This product includes an Anti Bark mode, which is active by default in training mode.

• To enable Anti Bark mode: With the transmitter on, press and hold the remote power button for 3 seconds. The receiver will beep once.
• To disable Anti Bark mode: With the transmitter on, press and hold the remote power button for 3 seconds. The receiver will beep twice.

Anti Bark Mode Operation:

• When the dog barks, the receiver emits a 2-second warning sound.
• A second bark within 30 seconds results in a 3-second warning sound.
• A third bark within 30 seconds triggers a 5-second warning sound and a weak vibration. This helps train the dog to stop barking upon hearing the warning.
• This cycle repeats up to 7 times. The first two instances are sound-only. Subsequent triggers activate sound and vibration, with increasing vibration intensity.

Automatic Protection:

• The device resets to standby after 30 seconds of no barking.
• If the device is activated 7 times consecutively, the indicator flashes rapidly, and the device pauses for 1 minute to ensure the dog's well-being.

Fitting the Collar

1. Position the receiver on the bottom of your dog's neck for effective and safe training.
2. Ensure a one-finger gap between the collar and your dog's neck. Avoid a loose fit, which can reduce effectiveness.
3. Trim the receiver collar for a comfortable and secure fit.

Setting the Initial Training Level Intensity

Understanding intensity levels helps control stimulation. Determine the lowest effective level by following these steps:

1. Set intensity to zero using the “-” button.
2. Fit the collar properly on your dog's neck and begin training.
3. If your dog is not focused, gradually increase stimulation until they respond to the beep/vibration.

Note: Dogs vary in sensitivity. Test each level on your individual dog.

WARNING: If your dog yelps or jumps, the intensity level is too high.

Stopping Unwanted Behaviour

Set the collar to a predetermined stimulation level as described in “Setting the Initial Training Level Intensity”.

1. Allow your dog to roam in an area where misbehavior might occur (e.g., near rubbish).
2. Position yourself out of sight or at a discreet distance.
3. When misbehavior occurs, press a training button. This associates the signal with the misbehavior. Increase the level if no response.

Note: Timing is crucial. Signaling at the moment of misbehavior shortens training time.

Training Advice

• Collar Wise: Ensure your dog is unaware the correction comes from the collar. Otherwise, they may only behave when wearing it.
• Note: Have your dog wear the collar for 5-7 days (max 8 hours/day) to acclimate to its weight.
• Positive Reinforcement: Praise your dog immediately after they respond to the collar. Reward with petting, verbal praise, or a treat.
• Note: Do not let your dog associate the stimulation with you. They should associate it with the bad behavior.
