CHANGE STIMULATION RANGES
The SportTrainer® SD-1875E Collar Receiver has 3 stimulation ranges (low, 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 2 or medium.
To change the stimulation range, follow these steps:
1. Make sure the Collar Receiver is off.
2. Turn the unit on by pressing and releasing the On/Off button.
3. Within 5 seconds of the Indicator Light turning off, press and hold the On/Off button for 3 seconds.
4. The Collar Receiver will then beep once and the Indicator Light will flash orange. This indicates Low
stimulation range. If Medium or High are desired, continue to hold the On/Off button until the number of
beeps/orange flashes equals the desired stimulation range 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.

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 stimulation. Always keep the following training tips in mind:
• Eliminate one misbehaviour 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 misbehaviour.
• 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 remote trainer 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 first couple of times), do not
be alarmed. Redirect his attention to a simple and appropriate behaviour (i.e. a known command, such as "Sit").
• Never use the SportTrainer® SD-1875E to correct or eliminate any form of aggressive behaviour. If your dog
exhibits such behaviour, contact a professional trainer. Aggression in dogs is the result of many factors – it may
be a learned behaviour 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.
