PROGRAM THE REMOTE TRANSMITTER
The WetlandHunter
®
425 Remote Transmitter has seven operational modes to allow you to select the
best match for your type or style of training. The Remote Transmitter is factory set to mode 1. There is
also one programming mode: Mode V/T (Change ID Codes) on page 14.
TO CHANGE THE MODE:
1. Referring to the following table, adjust the Intensity
Dial to your desired mode.
2. Turn the Remote Transmitter over.
3. Using a pen or the tine on the buckle of your collar
strap, press and release the Mode Button. When
the Mode Button is pressed, the Transmitter Indicator
Light will be solid in color. When it is released, it will
lash the number of times for the mode selected.
For example, if mode 5 is desired, adjust the Intensity Dial
to Level 5. Once the Mode Button has been depressed, the Transmitter Indicator Light will be solid and,
once the mode button is released, the Transmitter Indicator Light will lash 5 times.

CHANGING STIMULATION RANGES
The WetlandHunter
®
425 Collar Receiver comes with 2 stimulation ranges (medium and high). There are 7
stimulation levels within each range, with 1 being the lowest and 7 being the highest. The default range setting
is 3 (high).
To change the range of stimulation, follow these steps:
1. Make sure the Collar Receiver is off.
2. Then turn the unit on by pressing and releasing the On/Off Button.
3. After the Indicator Light turns off and within 5 seconds, press and hold the On/Off Button for 3 seconds.
4. The Collar Receiver will then beep 2 times and the Indicator Light will lash orange. This indicates
Medium
stimulation range. If
High
is desired, continue to hold the On/Off Button until the number of beeps/orange
lashes equals 3 as shown in the chart below.
5. Release the On/Off Button once the desired range is selected; the Collar Receiver will turn off.
6. Turn the unit back on. It will then beep according to the stimulation range selected in Step 4.
GENERAL TRAINING TIPS
BEFORE TRAINING YOUR DOG WITH THIS PRODUCT:
You will have the most success using this remote trainer if you always remember to teach a command
before trying to reinforce the command with a remote trainer. We recommend that you read the
enclosed Training Guide and watch the enclosed DVD before training with this remote trainer. Your
training will be easier and proceed faster if you follow the guidelines in these teaching assistants. In
addition, always keep the following training tips in mind:
• Eliminate one misbehavior or teach one obedience command at a time. If you move too fast with the
training, your dog may become confused.
• Be consistent. Give your dog a tone, vibration, or stimulation with each misbehavior.
• Do not overcorrect your dog. Use as few stimulations as possible to train your dog.
• Restrict your dog from situations in which he has a history of misbehaving unless you can supervise
him and use the WetlandHunter 425 for applying tone, vibration, or stimulation.
• If you notice one situation in which your dog misbehaves repeatedly, set up this situation as a
training session. This will dramatically increase your chances of success.
• If your dog has a timid reaction to the tone, vibration, or stimulation (especially the irst couple of
times), do not be alarmed. Redirect his attention to a simple and appropriate behavior (i.e. a known
command, such as “Sit”).
• Never use the WetlandHunter 425 to correct or eliminate any form of aggressive behavior.
If your dog exhibits such behavior, contact a professional trainer. Aggression in dogs is the
result of many factors – it may be a learned behavior or it may be brought on as a result of fear.
Another factor contributing to aggression in dogs is social dominance. Every dog is different.
At this point, your remote trainer is ready to use. The transmitter is factory set to mode 1, but you may wish to
change the mode to it your situation. See STEP 5, for an explanation of mode options.
