This document describes the Patpet p-collar 301 dog training collar, designed to help dogs live safely, happily, and harmoniously with people.
Function Description
The Patpet p-collar 301 is an electronic dog training collar system that includes a remote transmitter and a receiver collar. It offers three types of stimulation: tone, vibration, and static shock, to aid in dog training. The system allows for adjustment of vibration and shock levels to suit the dog's temperament and training needs. It also supports training multiple dogs with a single remote by switching channels.
- Aggressive Dogs: Do not use this product with aggressive dogs, as it may cause severe injury or death to the owner or others. Consult a veterinarian or certified trainer if unsure about suitability.
- On-Leash Training: Ensure the dog is on a strong leash, long enough for movement but short enough to prevent reaching unsafe areas. The user must be physically strong enough to restrain the dog.
- Skin Damage Risk: Proper collar fit is crucial. Avoid leaving the collar on for more than 12 hours per day. Reposition the collar every 1-2 hours. Never connect a lead to the electronic collar, as this causes excessive pressure on contact points. Discontinue use if a rash or sore is found until the skin heals. If the condition persists beyond 48 hours, consult a veterinarian.
- General Safety: This product is not a toy and should be kept away from children. It is only for use with healthy dogs. Do not shave the pet's neck, as this can increase skin irritation. The collar should not be worn for more than 12 hours per day.

Usage Features
Setting Up the Product:
- Prepare the Remote: Install batteries (negative first, then positive) and turn it on. The LCD will light up, showing channel, battery power, and levels. To turn off, press and hold the ON/OFF button until the LCD goes off (2-3 seconds).
- Prepare the Receiver Collar:
- Remove existing conductive screws if present.
- Install batteries according to the engraved mark.
- Install Contact Points: Select appropriate length (longer for thicker coats, shorter for thinner coats). Insert and tighten clockwise using the Test Lamp.
- Install Conductive Silicone Covers onto the Contact Points for comfort.
- Assemble Collar Strap: Unhitch the nylon belt, take off the slide buckle, thread the strap through the receiver collar, then through the slide buckle, then through the side release buckle, and finally thread excess strap through the slide buckle to ensure a tight fit.
- Turn on the Receiver Collar: Press the On/Off Button; the green LED will light up and flash every 4 seconds in normal mode, indicating it's ready to receive signals.
- Turn off the Receiver Collar: Press and hold the On/Off Button until the red LED shuts off (approx. 3 seconds). Release the button.
- Function Test:
- Experience stimulation levels on yourself first, starting at the lowest.
- Place a finger over both contact points.
- Hold the remote 2 ft from the receiver. Press the Vibration Button for 1-2 seconds to feel continuous vibration.
- Press and hold the Channel Conversion Button (1/2) for about 5 seconds until the Shock icon flashes, then use +/- to adjust shock levels. Increase until uncomfortable.
- Use the Test Lamp to verify shock function: Turn on the receiver, hold the Test Lamp contacts against the Contact Points (or silicone covers), press the Shock Button. The lamp will light up, brighter with increased shock level. The Test Lamp can also be used as a screwdriver to tighten/loosen contact points.
- Pairing the Remote and Receiver Collar:
- Use the Channel Conversion Button (1/2) on the remote to select the desired dog channel (e.g., Dog 1).
- With the remote on and receiver off, press and hold the receiver's ON/OFF button for 4-5 seconds. The red and green LEDs will blink for about 10 seconds, indicating pairing readiness.
- Press and hold the Tone Button and Vibration Button simultaneously on the remote for 2-3 seconds. The receiver's LED will flash green 5 times, indicating successful pairing.
- To pair a second collar, select Dog 2 on the remote and repeat steps 2-4.
Dog Training:
- Fitting: Ensure the collar is snug, allowing one finger between the collar and the dog's neck. Too loose, and contact points may rub; too tight, and breathing may be restricted.
- Shock Level Selection: Start at Level 1 and gradually increase. The appropriate level is when the dog shows a mild reaction (e.g., ear flick, lip lick, neck muscle tensing). Higher levels may be needed when the dog is highly distracted.
- Stimulation Duration: Continuous stimulation lasts no more than 10 seconds, followed by a 5-second time-out before it can be reactivated.
- Channel Conversion: Short press the Channel Conversion Button to switch between dog channels. Press and hold to adjust vibration/shock levels.
- Level Adjustment: Use the '+' button to increase and '-' button to decrease shock/vibration levels.
Maintenance Features
Battery Replacement:
Batteries need replacement when:
- The receiver collar's indicator light emits a red color every 4 seconds or flashes rapidly.
- The remote's LCD battery icon shows only 1 bar (shock function may be affected).
- The indicator light on either the remote or receiver collar does not come on.
- The indicator light on either device only comes on momentarily when a button is pressed.
To extend battery life, turn off the receiver collar when not in use. Remove the battery if not using for a long time.
