Pawz Away® Indoor Pet Barrier System

Overview
Help your dog avoid problem areas with expert ease! Put a Transmitter Disc near the middle of your desired pet-free zone. When your dog moves towards the outer range of the pet free zone, the collar emits a high-pitched tone, followed by an escalating level of electrical stimulation delivered via the collar probes. Note: The tone is easily heard by dogs, but may be a pitch that is difficult for humans to hear.

Your dog's collar will work with multiple Transmitter Disc units (sold separately), so you can protect more than one problem area in your home.

Training Tips

1. Read the complete manual and follow all directions. This device is intended for use only on dogs. Never attempt to use it for any purpose not described in the enclosed product manual.
2. Move your dog to an area away from the pet-free zone before turning the collar on.
3. Allow your dog to enter the zone on his own.
4. 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.
5. 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 a void the Transmitter Disc by gently guiding him out of the range once he has entered.
6. Be sure to praise your dog for leaving the pet-free zone.

Multiple Dog Households
All Transmitter Discs 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 receiver can operate on one of two different modes - A or B. Collars set to the A mode will activate from Zones set on A only or A/B mode. Collars set to the B mode will activate from Zones set on B only or A/B mode.
• Each Transmitter Disc may also be set to either mode A or B, or to both modes A and B to allow multiple configurations. Transmitter Discs set to A/B mode will engage collars set on both the A only or B only modes.

Operating Tips

• Perform set-up procedures before you place the collar on your dog.
• To keep warranty in effect, an authorized agent must service the computerized circuitry in this unit. Do not attempt to dismantle or repair this system on your own.
• Each dog reacts differently to training. Use a long lead in initial training sessions so as to maintain complete control of your dog at all times.
• If your dog is aggressive, snarls, bites, or gives other indication of harming himself or others, terminate the training session and consult a professional dog trainer or animal behaviorist, someone with knowledge in managing hard-to-control dogs.
• Since some dogs do not respond to a training collar, and even trained dogs occasionally miss commands, Invisible Technologies, its distributors, and dealers cannot guarantee that the system will, in all cases, bring about desired results and complete obedience.

Cautions
Collars that are worn for extended periods of time can cause a condition similar to bedsores, known as pressure necrosis. To reduce the possibility of this occurring, follow these guidelines:

• Collars should be worn for a maximum of 12 hours.
• Examine the dog's neck daily for signs of rash or sores.
• Supervise your dog closely during the first 2 days of training.
• Check for excessive pressure; you should be able to insert one finger between the collar strap and your dog's skin.
• Use a washcloth weekly to clean the dog's neck area and the probes of the collar.
• If a skin condition develops and persists beyond 24 hours, consult your veterinarian.

Warranty
Return of electronic equipment to Drs. Foster & Smith for exchange or refund is limited to 60 days from the date of purchase. Beyond 60 days, electronic equipment is covered by the manufacturer's warranty and you should contact the manufacturer for repair or replacement.
