This section guides you through the process of pairing the remote control with the receiver collar and setting up the device for optimal performance. Press and hold the pairing buttons on both devices simultaneously until the indicator lights confirm the connection. Adjust settings as needed to ensure proper functionality and start training your dog effectively. To pair the remote and receiver, press and hold the pairing buttons on both devices simultaneously. The receiver will vibrate or flash when connected. Ensure both devices are turned on and in close proximity. Once paired, the remote will control the collar effectively. This step is crucial for proper functionality and seamless communication between the devices. Adjust sensitivity levels to ensure the collar responds accurately to your commands. Press the sensitivity button on the remote to cycle through levels. Test the vibration or shock function to confirm the collar reacts properly. Ensure the sensitivity is high enough for your dog to notice but not so high that it causes discomfort. This step ensures effective communication between the remote and receiver. Press the vibration button to test the receiver collar’s response. You should feel or see a clear reaction. Next, test the shock function at a low level to ensure it works without causing harm. Adjust the intensity as needed and repeat the test to confirm proper functionality. Always follow safety guidelines during testing. The Patpet Shock Collar features Tone, Vibration, and Shock modes for versatile training. Each mode offers adjustable intensity levels to suit different training needs and dog temperaments effectively. The Tone Mode emits a distinct, non-adjustable auditory signal to capture your dog’s attention. It is ideal for initial training stages or sensitive dogs, providing a gentle yet effective way to communicate commands without causing stress or discomfort. This mode helps in reinforcing good behavior through clear, consistent auditory cues. The Vibration Mode provides a gentle yet noticeable stimulus through adjustable intensity levels (1-8). It is suitable for dogs that respond to non-electronic cues, offering a humane alternative to shock. This mode is effective for training in various environments and helps reinforce commands without causing discomfort. Use it according to the manual’s guidelines for optimal results. The Shock Mode delivers adjustable static stimulation (1-16 levels) to help correct stubborn behaviors. Used correctly, it ensures your dog’s attention without causing harm. Always start with lower settings and follow the manual’s safety guidelines. This mode is designed for dogs unresponsive to tone or vibration, ensuring effective training while prioritizing their well-being. Use responsibly and as a last resort.
