Water-resistant
The Pawz Away ™ Mat is water resistant not waterproof. Water being on the Mat does not decrease
its effectiveness. The controls are also water resistant. If the controls become wet, they will stop
working until they become dry. Do not submerse the Mat or controls in water.
Climate
If you are using the Pawz Away ™ Mat in a cold climate (60 degrees F or less) the Mat may become
creased. Move to an area that is above 60 degrees F to remove the creasing.
To Test the Pawz Away ™ Mat
There are two options for testing the Mat. After inserting the 9V battery (not included), press
the pushbutton one time. The first setting on the controls is Tone+Stimulation, use this setting
for testing. Ensure you are touching across two embedded wires of the Pawz Away
™ Mat for each
option listed below. This activates the Mat.
Option 1 (0-20 Seconds)
To test the Mat without feeling the
stimulation, briefly touch the Pawz Away
™
Mat within the first 20 second after turning
the controls on and you will hear a distinct
“chirp”. The chirp indicates the Mat is
working properly.
Option 2 (20+ Seconds)
To test the Mat and feel the stimulation, briefly
touch the surface of the Mat 20 seconds after
turning the controls on. The Red LED light

the Mat the stronger the energy (stimulation) will be.
Note: If your Pawz Away ™ Mat does not respond during this test, see the “Troubleshooting” section.
