General Tips

Important: The following training instructions were written to be used with the Remote
Transmitter programmed to Mode 1.
• Eliminate one misbehaviour or teach one obedience command at a time. If you move too fast
with the training, your pet may become confused.
• Be consistent. Give your pet a tone or Stimulation with each misbehaviour.
• Do not over-correct your pet. Use as few Stimulations as possible to train your pet.
• Unless you can supervise him, it is recommended that you restrict your pet from situations in
which he has a history of misbehaving. However, setting up a situation as a training session can
dramatically improve your chances of success.
• If your pet reacts to the training by hiding or acting fearful, redirect his attention to a simple and
appropriate behaviour such as the "Sit" command.
• The Lower Button can be used to deliver a slightly higher level of Stimulation on occasions when
your pet ignores his Recognition Level. Using this button is a quicker alternative to adjusting the
Intensity Dial. Note: This function only applies if the Remote Transmitter is programmed in Mode 1.
• Never use the Remote Trainer to correct or eliminate any form of aggressive behaviour. If you
are unsure if your dog is aggressive, please consult your veterinarian or a certifi ed trainer.
• The objective is to train your pet to respond to your spoken command and the Audible Tone
from the receiver in normal circumstances. After proper training, the use of Stimulation should
only be necessary if your pet repeats unwanted behaviour.
