Operation Guide
Thank you for purchasing the Smart Dog In-ground Pet
Fencing System.
This electronic dog containment system is among the
safest, most humane and effective training products you
can buy. Once your dog is properly trained, he will enjoy
hours of freedom within his new boundaries, and you will
enjoy the comfort of knowing that he has learned to stay
safely in your yard.
Please take a few minutes to read the instruction manual
prior to your first use and retain the manual for future refer-
ence. This instruction manual contains important program-
ming and set-up information to help your training proceed
as successfully as possible. For best results, follow these
important rules:
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
1. Obey all warnings contained in this manual.
2. The electronic dog collar is intended only for use on dogs.
Never attempt to use this product for any purpose not specifi-
cally described in this manual.
3. If you have any reason to believe that your dog may pose a
danger to others, or that it may harm itself if it is not kept from
crossing the boundary wire, you should not rely solely on this
product to contain your dog.
4. Do not leave the collar on your dog for more than 12 hours
per day.
5. Never perform set-up procedures when the collar is on your
dog.
6. Never call or pull your dog into the containment field.
7. Keep all system components out of the reach of children.
8. The containment system will not contain your dog unless:
A. You train your pet as prescribed in the training plan
(Section 7, pg. 15).
B. The transmitter is on, connected to the boundary loop wire,
and producing a signal along the boundary wire.
C. The collar receiver is worn properly by your dog.
D. The collar receiver is adjusted so that the probes are
touching your dog's skin.
E. There is an adequate charge on the collar receiver battery.
Do not use if you suspect the charge is low.
F. The 24-volt adapter is plugged into the transmitter and is
connected to a 110-volt household outlet.
9. The following precautions should always be taken:
A. Never service or install a system or any equipment during
a thunder or electrical storm.
B. Never install the transmitter where it could be exposed to
the elements, doing so will void the manufacturer's warranty.
C. Monitor the transmitter periodically to ensure that the unit
is operating properly and is producing a signal along the
boundary wire.
D. Always remove your dog's collar receiver before making
any adjustments to your containment system.
E. Use the lowest stimulation necessary to get the desired
behavior.
F. Allow your dog to get used to the collar before you begin
training. You want your dog to accept the collar as part of a
routine, not to associate the collar with the stimulation.
10. To prevent the elimination of an adequate safe zone in your
yard, any adjustments to the field width must be tested prior to
using the system with your dog. Once the field width has been
set and tested, turning the knob in a clockwise direction will
increase the stimulation zone and may eliminate the safe zone,
thus causing stimulation to be present throughout your entire
yard.
11. Read all instructions before using this product. If you have
any questions or concerns after reading this information, contact
Innotek.
IMPORTANT
Realize that because individual dogs have unique tempera-
ments, there is no way of knowing how your dog will react to its
introduction to this product. For the safety of your dog, initial
training should take place using a six foot or retractable leash to
keep you in control of the situation. Also realize that an aggres-
sive animal could turn against the handler upon receiving the
stimulation. Therefore, if you feel your dog has an aggressive
temperament and/or he has a history of aggressive behavior,
you should consult a certified animal behaviorist before using
this product.
