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. In addition, 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 and/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 SportTrainer
• 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, stimulation or vibration (especially the fi rst 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
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.
At this point, your remote trainer is ready to use. The transmitter is factory set to mode 1, but you may
wish to change the mode to fi t your situation. See Step 5, for an explanation of mode options.

PROGRAM THE REMOTE TRANSMITTER
NOTE: The Remote Transmitter is factory set to mode 1. The mode of the Remote Transmitter can be
changed to fi t your type or style of training.
TO CHANGE THE MODE:
1. Referring to the following tables, adjust the Intensity
Dial and Toggle Switch to the mode you want to use.
2. Turn the Remote Transmitter over and remove the belt
clip (if attached).
3. Using a straight pen or the tine on the buckle of your
collar strap, depress and release the mode button.
When the mode button is pressed, the Transmitter
Indicator Light will be solid in colour. When it is
released, it will fl ash the mode selected.
For example, if mode 5 is desired, adjust the Intensity Dial to Level 5. Once the mode button has
been depressed, the Transmitter Indicator Light will be solid, and once the mode button is released,
the Transmitter Indicator Light will fl ash 5 times. However, if you select mode 8 (ID Code) in the UP
