2. Once you have chosen an outlet and before plugging anything
in, go to your breaker box and turn the power off to that outlet.
3. Then, back at the outlet, remove the center screw that holds the
outlet cover in place.
4. Plug the surge protector into the lower outlet.
5. Using the large screw provided, secure the surge protector to
the outlet.
6. At the breaker box, turn the power back on to the outlet.
7. Next, you will mount the transmitter somewhere within 5 ft. of the
surge protector. Remove the mounting bracket from the back of
the fence transmitter.
8. Fasten the mounting bracket to the wall using the 2 screws and
anchors provided (
3C
).
9. Slide the transmitter over the mounting bracket (
3D
).
• Do not install, connect or remove your system during a lightning storm. If the storm is close enough for you to hear
thunder, it is close enough to create hazardous surges.
• Risk of electric shock. Use the fence transmitter and surge protector indoors in dry location only.
• Turn off power to the outlet before you install or remove your surge protector.
• Risk of electric shock or fire. Use surge protector only with a duplex outlet with center screw.
• Do not install the surge protector if there is not at least 30 ft. (10 m) or more of wire between the electrical outlet
and electrical service panel.
• If possible, DO NOT use an AC circuit protected with a GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupter). Both the surge
protector and the fence system will function. However, in rare cases, nearby lightning may cause the GFCI to trip.
Without power, your pet may escape. You will have to reset the GFCI to restore power to the system.
• Plug the surge protector into a grounded (3-prong) outlet within 5 ft. of the fence transmitter. ALWAYS use a
grounded (3-prong) outlet to ensure protection.
• Do not remove the ground prong from the surge protector plug. Do not use a 3-prong plug to 2-prong outlet
converter. Doing so will make the surge protector ineffective against surges or spikes.
• For added protection, when unused for long periods of time or prior to thunderstorms, unplug from the wall outlet
and disconnect the loop boundary wires. This will prevent damage to the transmitter due to surges.
