Key Definitions Fence Transmitter: Transmits the radio signal through the boundary wire Pet Area: The area within the warning zone where your pet can roam freely Warning Zone: The outer edge of the pet area where your pet’s receiver collar begins to beep, warning him not to go into the static correction zone Static Correction Zone: The zone beyond the warning zone where your pet’s receiver collar will emit a static correction, signaling him to return to the pet area...
Locate the Fence Transmitter • Place the fence transmitter: • In a dry, well ventilated, protected area (1A, 1B). • In an area where temperatures do not fall below -10°F (-23°C) (e.g., garage, basement, shed, closet). • Secured to a stationary surface using appropriate mounting hardware (not included). A mounting template is included in the back of this guide.
Sample Layouts Sample 1: Perimeter Loop (Single Loop) The perimeter loop is the most common layout. This will allow your pet to freely and safely roam your entire property (2C). It can also protect gardens, pools and landscaping (2D). Sample 2 (2E): Perimeter Loop Using Existing Fence (Single Loop) This layout allows you to include your existing fence as part of your layout and keep your pet from jumping out or digging under your existing fence.
Double Loop A double loop must be used when you are not establishing the boundary zone on all sides of your property. When using a double loop, the boundary wire must be separated by a minimum of 5 ft. to avoid canceling the signal.
To Twist the Boundary Wire Twisting the boundary wire cancels the signal and allows your pet to cross over that area safely (3B). The signal cannot be canceled by running the wire through plastic or metal piping. Using shielded cable in place of the boundary wire will also not cancel the signal.

Anti-Linger Prevention The anti-linger prevention feature keeps your dog from staying in the warning zone for long periods of time and draining the receiver collar battery.

If your dog does not return to the pet area after 2 seconds, he will receive a continuous static correction until he returns to the pet area.

Center the contact points underneath your pet’s neck, touching the skin. If your pet has a long or thick coat, use the enclosed long contact points to reach through the hair. Note: It is sometimes necessary to trim the hair around the contact points to make sure that contact is consistent. The receiver collar should fit snugly, yet loose enough to allow one finger to fit between a contact point and your pet’s neck (9A).
• Proper training of your pet is essential to the success of the system. • Remove the collar after each training session. • Be sure to place the collar on your dog’s neck with the Premier Pet logo facing up.
