Change Static Stimulation Ranges; General Training Tips - SportDOG SPORTTRAINER SD-825E Manual De Funcionamiento

4. Once you find your dog's Recognition Level, this is the level you should use when you begin a
training exercise.
5. If you have progressed to Level 7 while searching for your dog's Recognition Level and your dog
continues to show no response, check to see if the Collar Receiver is snug against your dog's neck. Then
go back to Intensity Level 1 and repeat the process. If your dog still does not indicate he is feeling the
static stimulation, you have three options: trim the hair beneath the Contact Points, switch to the longer
Contact Points included in your system, or change the static stimulation range.
If after completing all of these steps your dog still does not indicate he is feeling the static stimulation, please
contact the Customer Care Centre.

CHANGE STATIC STIMULATION RANGES

The SportTrainer® SD-825E Collar Receiver has 2 static stimulation ranges (low and medium). There are
7 static stimulation levels within each range, with 1 being the lowest and 7 being the highest. The default
range setting is 2 (medium).
To change the range of static stimulation, 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 static
stimulation range. If Medium is desired, continue to hold the On/Off Button until the Collar Receiver
beeps twice and the Indicator Light flashes orange twice, as 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 static stimulation range selected in Step 4.

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 a remote trainer. 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 static, tone, or vibration 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 SportTrainer® SD-825E Remote Trainer for applying static, tone, or vibration 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 static, tone, or vibration 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-825E Remote Trainer 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.
