1. Ensure system is turned off – Turn off the transmitter
and unplug the adapter from the AC outlet.
2. Bury the wire – With a straightedge spade, dig a slot 3-
8cm deep in your turf. Rock the spade back and forth to
create a V-shaped slot. You may choose to use a gas-
powered edger as well.A 30 to 45-degree angle cut will be
the easiest to close and keep the wire in the slot. Make
sure there is a little slack in the wire as you bury it to
compensate for expansion and contraction due to
temperature changes.
When crossing an asphalt driveway, make a 1cm
perpendicular cut across the driveway using the circular
saw and masonry blade. Place the wire in the crack and
seal with asphalt sealant. With concrete driveways, there is
usually an expansion joint that can be cleaned out and used
for the same purpose and covered with clear silicone caulk.
The wire can be placed underwater in creeks and streams
by running the wire through PVC pipe or a length of cut
garden hose to prevent the wire from being damaged.
3. Place training flags – Repeat the TEST YOUR FENCE
steps outlined in the Step 6. As soon as you hear the
warning tone, place one flag. Repeat the process in 3m
intervals around the pet fencing area.The flags will be your
dog's visual clue to the boundary during training, and will
be gradually removed during the training process. You are
now ready to begin training your dog. See the Training and
Troubleshooting guide.
Working With INNOTEK
This collar is also compatible with INNOTEK
battery-powered portable indoor avoidance system. Place
a ZONES ™ transmitter near anything you want your pet to
avoid: plants, trash cans, fine furniture. When your dog
wearing the collar enters the avoidance ZONE, he will
receive a mild correction, designed to create just enough
discomfort to get him to leave the area.
ZONES ™ are commonly available where you bought your
fencing system or through other resources. Contact an
authorized INNOTEK ® Service Center for information.
Setting your ZONE
Install three AA alkaline batteries (not included) in the Zone.
Determine the desired location and size for your pet-free
zone. Hold the Zone so that the name is right side up. Press
the arrow-shaped UP button. A segmented line will appear
in the window. Each segment represents approximately
two feet of range from the unit. The arrow-shaped DOWN
button reduces the diameter of the pet-free zone. Once
range is set, place Zone in desired area. Zones has a
maximum range of 1.5-2m.

Testing the Zone
You may wish to verify the range of the pet-free zone.
Holding the collar, start outside the range and walk slowly
toward the Zone.The collar will emit a high-pitched tone as
it approaches the outer range of the pet-free zone,
followed by an escalating level of correction. If you cannot
hear the tone, hold the supplied test light on the collar
probes and repeat this test. The light will illuminate,
demonstrating stimulation.
Your First Indoor ZONES Session
Move your dog to an area away from the pet-free zone. Be
sure he's wearing his INNOTEK
enter the zone on his own. Monitor your dog during his first
session. Dogs learn at different speeds. It may take several
times for your dog to honor the pet-free zone. You may also
need to adjust the range so that your dog receives the
warning sooner. If you find that your dog is confused or
unsure how to avoid the correction, it may be useful to put a
long leash on your dog and show him how to avoid the Zone
by gently guiding him out of the range once he has entered.
Be sure to praise your dog for leaving the pet-free zone.
Important Information About Range
Your Zones ™ transmitter communicates with your pet's
collar via a radio frequency signal. Due to the inherent
properties of radio signals, some locations may affect the
maximum range that can be achieved. This may be
particularly noticeable around metal objects. Should you
find that you are not getting the desired range at the
maximum setting, altering the Zone location by a few feet
or changing how the Zone is positioned (ie: standing on end
instead of laying flat) may help cover your pet free area.
Turning the Units OFF
To turn the Zone OFF, continue to press and release the
DOWN arrow button until no bars are present in the
window. The Zone is now OFF.
Multiple Dog Households
All zones and collars come preset in mode A. In multiple
dog households, it may be desired to allow one dog access
to an area while denying access to another. Each collar can
operate on one of two different modes - A or B.
