These steps will help keep your pet safe and comfortable. Millions of pets are 
comfortable while they wear stainless steel contacts. Some pets are sensitive to 
contact pressure. You may find after some time that your pet is very tolerant of the 
collar. If so, you may relax some of these precautions. It is important to continue 
daily checks of the contact area. If redness or sores are found, discontinue use until 
the skin has fully healed.
•  You may need to trim the hair in the area of the Contact Points. Never shave the 
dog’s neck; this may lead to a rash or infection.
•  Always remove your dog’s Receiver Collar before performing any Transmitter 
testing. 
•  The Receiver Collar should not be on your dog when the system is tested. Your 
pet may receive an unintended correction.
•  The Boundary Width of the system must be tested whenever an adjustment is 
made to the containment field to prevent unintended corrections to your pet.
•  If you use a collar and leash for training, be sure the extra collar does not put 
pressure on the contact points.
•  Never remove power from the system when the collar is on the pet. This may 
activate the Receiver Collar.
•  Radio Systems

 Corporation recommends the use of an Uninterruptible Power 
Supply (UPS) for use with your wireless fence. Should the power go out at your 
home, your pet will be unprotected. Power outages can be unpredictable, and the 
use of a UPS will provide you with some time to properly restrain your pet.
In rare instances, if your pet is near the boundary at the time when the power fails, it 
is possible that your pet will receive a correction. This correction will stop after a 15 
second timeout period has been reached. This is due to the operation of the collar: 
the collar is activated by the absence of the containment signal.
While results will vary depending on the UPS manufacturer’s specifications the 
following are typical examples to guide your choice of UPS:
•  Using a 400 VA UPS a consumer should expect 1 hour of backup time.
•  Using a 900 VA UPS a consumer could expect 4 hours of backup time.
If settings below maximum fence size are used, additional backup time will result. 
At minimum fence size settings backup time may be more than two times the 
backup time estimated at maximum fence size.
•  To prevent an unintended correction, after the Boundary Flags have been placed, 
be sure to set the static correction on the Receiver Collar back to level 1 tone only.
•  Do not charge your Receiver Collar every night. Charging too often can reduce 
battery life. Charge your Receiver Collar when the Receiver Indicator Light blinks 
yellow; or when the light blinks red.
•  Do not place anything on the top of the Transmitter or cover any ventilation holes. 
This may overheat the Transmitter and cause early transmit failure.
•  Do not place Transmitter in a closet or any other confined, unventilated area.
