Smart Dog In
This hidden HT-023 fencing system is among the most reliable , cost-efficient pet containment
systems available today. A buried wire transmits a harmless radio signal. When you dog
approaches the boundary, the signal causes the dog's collar receiver to deliver a warning beep
first. If your dog continues closer to the boundary, the system
continues further, the system will issue stronger shocks until your dog returns to within the
boundary your have set up. Your dog

For best results, follow these important rules:
• The electronic dog collar is intended only for use on dogs.
• A low battery may cause intennittent operation. DO NOT USE if you suspect a low
battery .
• Allow your dog to get used to the collar before you begin training. You want your dog to
accept the collar as part of a routine, not to associate the collar with correction.
• DO NOT leave the collar on your dog for more than 12 hours per day .
• . NEVER perform set-up procedures when the collar is on your dog .
• An electronic collar should only be used under close supervision by the dog's owner.
• KEEP OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN.
• Read all instructions before using this product.

Prepare a diagram of the area you want to contain your dog. A diagram
unforeseen obstacles. Include the location of house,driveway, pond, garden, swimming pool, etc.
If your neighbour has a containment system installed, mark the location of the buried wire on
your diagram.
B.
Contact your utility companies to mark any buried utility lines. Be sure to include the buried lines
on your drawing because these utility lines will affect the place ment of you r wire .
C.
The transmitter can be mounted to a wall near any standard 240·volt household outlet with the
included screws. It
best to locate the transmitter in an enclosed area. Install the transmitter at least three feet from
any large metal objects such as breaker boxes , water heaters, metal garage doors, or washer
andlor dryer . When installing the transmitter make sure the wire is not cut off or pinched by a
window , door or garage door . When drilling holes , make sure there are no electrical wires , nails
or screws inside the area you are drilling .
D.
Containment
Since your transmitter must be mounted in an enclosedarea to protect it from the weather, give
careful consi deration on where the wire exits to the exterio r. Existing openings suc h as a window,
door or utility line hole may provide easy access to the outside. You may need to drill a hole
through the exterior wall.
STEP 2
ADD PROPOSED WIRE LOCATION TO YOUR
Mark your diagram with the proposed location of your wire . Th is will provide an easy reference
as you install the wire. For the system to work properly , the wire must make one conti nuous loop.
The signal is transmitted from one terminal of the transmi tter, through the wire and back to the
otherterminal.

2. If you are using more wire than initially supplied with your containment system. the wire
connections must be waterproof to provide a sealed connection between the wires. Do not use
