• Do not use this product if your dog is prone to aggressive behavior. Aggressive dogs can cause severe injury or death to their owners and others. If you are
not sure that this product is right for your dog, please talk to your veterinarian or a certified trainer.

• This Premier Pet
™
Wireless Fence is NOT a solid barrier. The system is designed to act as a deterrent to remind pets by static correction to remain in the
boundary established. It is important that you reinforce training with your pet on a regular basis. Since the tolerance level to static correction varies from
pet to pet, Radio Systems Corporation CANNOT guarantee that the system will, in all cases, keep a pet within the established boundary. Not all pets can
be trained to avoid crossing the boundary! Therefore, if you have reason to believe that your pet may pose a danger to others or harm himself if he is not
kept from crossing the boundaries, you should NOT rely solely upon the Premier Pet
™
Wireless Fence to confine your pet. Radio Systems Corporation shall
NOT be liable for any property damage, economic loss or any consequential damages, sustained as a result of any animal crossing the boundary.
• This product is not a toy. Keep it away from the reach of children.
• Proper fit of the collar is important. A collar worn for too long or made too tight on the pet’s neck may cause skin damage ranging from redness to
pressure ulcers. This condition is commonly known as bed sores.
• Avoid leaving the collar on a pet for more than 12 hours per day.
• When possible, reposition the collar on the pet’s neck every 1 to 2 hours.
• Regularly recheck the fit to prevent excessive pressure; follow the instructions in this guide.
• You may need to trim the hair in the area of the contact points. However, never shave the dog’s neck; this may lead to a rash or infection.
• Never connect a leash to a collar with contact points. It will cause excessive pressure on the contact points.
• When connecting a leash to a separate collar, do not allow it to put pressure on the receiver collar.
• Wash the dog’s neck area and the contact points of the collar weekly with a damp cloth.
• Examine the contact area daily for signs of a rash or a sore.
• If a rash or sore is found, discontinue using this product until the skin has healed.
• If the condition persists beyond 48 hours, see your veterinarian.
• For additional information on bed sores and pressure necrosis, please visit our website.
• Proper training of your pet is essential to successfully using the system. During the first 2 weeks of training, do not use the system without direct
supervision of your pet.
• Always remove your pet’s receiver collar before performing any transmitter testing or adjustments. This will prevent unintended corrections.
• The boundary zone must be tested whenever an adjustment is made to the fence transmitter setting to prevent unintended corrections to your pet. Do
not use an outlet protected with a residual current device (RCD) or ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI). The fence system will function properly, but in
rare cases, nearby lightning strikes may cause the RCD or GFCI to trip. Without system power, your pet may escape. You will have to reset the RCD or GFCI
to restore power to the system.
