Important Precautions
• Invisible Fence® Brand pet containment systems have contained over two million pets. However, there are some
precautions you should take.
• Read and retain manuals: Read the entire Owner’s Manual before using your new Invisible Fence Brand pet containment
system.
• Adhere to all warnings and cautions contained in any Invisible Fence Brand manual.

                     WARNING indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious
    WARNING          injury.

CAUTION              CAUTION used without the safety alert symbol, indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
                     could result in harm to your pet.

NOTICE              NOTICE is used to address safe use practices not related to personal injury.



    WARNING
• Replacing the battery backup with a battery not specifically approved by Invisible Fence Brand may cause fire or explosion.
Refer all service to your Invisible Fence Brand Dealer only.
• Not every pet can be trained to avoid the established boundary. Sometimes even a properly trained pet may cross the
boundary. Therefore, Invisible Fence®, Inc., as well as Invisible Fence® Distributors and Dealers, cannot guarantee the
system will, in all cases, keep a customer’s pet within the established boundary. Accordingly, if a customer has reason to
believe that their pet may pose a danger to others, or harm itself, the customer should not rely solely upon the Invisible
Fence Brand pet containment system to keep the pet from crossing the boundary.
• Do not install, connect, or remove your system during a lightning storm. If the storm is close enough for you to hear
thunder, it is close enough to create hazardous surges.



CAUTION
• Read and follow the important instructions on how to avoid pressure necrosis in your Invisible Fence Brand Computer
Collar® manual.
• Train your pet according to the instructions in the Invisible Fence Brand training manuals. Complete all steps before
allowing your pet to run free. Do not become overly confident if your pet has become conditioned to the Invisible Fence
Brand pet containment system sooner than expected.
• Your Invisible Fence Brand Dealer has professionally installed your pet containment system and ensured it is working
properly. You will want to perform periodic maintenance checks to make sure the system is properly functioning for your
pet’s safe containment.
• Check the Invisible Fence Brand transmitter periodically to make sure it is operating properly. To do this, simply bring the
Computer Collar to the edge of the containment field to verify function.
• The transmitter has visual and audible signals to warn of a system malfunction. The transmitter should be installed where
such signals may be easily seen and heard. If the transmitter is installed by the customer in an enclosed box, or in a place
not readily accessible to the customer, the customer will not benefit from the system’s warning functions, for which Invisible
Fence, Inc., as well as Invisible Fence Distributors and Dealers, assume no responsibility.
• Do not attempt to service any Invisible Fence Brand equipment. Refer all service to your authorized Invisible Fence Brand
Dealer. Only your authorized Invisible Fence Brand Dealer should make adjustments to your pet containment system.
• All Invisible Fence Brand pet containment systems are designed for domesticated animal use only. Never attempt to use
this product for any purpose not specifically described in this manual.



NOTICE
• Use care when mowing, aerating, or trimming your lawn so as not to cut the loop wire.
• If you have any questions about any aspect of your Invisible Fence Brand pet containment system, call your Invisible Fence
Brand Dealer immediately.

How the System Works
The 800 Series Transmitters are designed to work with an Invisible Fence® Brand Computer Collar® to contain your pet
within areas you choose, or teach your pet to avoid specific areas such as flower beds, gardens, or pools. The transmitter
produces a signal that travels along the signal field wire and back to the transmitter to produce an Invisible Boundary®
barrier.
When your pet approaches the established boundary, the Computer Collar generates a tone and correction to remind your
pet of the boundary. With training and praise, your pet will quickly learn to stay within or avoid the established boundary.
Definition: A correction is a training term used to describe an action taken to discourage unwanted pet behavior. The Computer
Collar applies a correction when your pet crosses the boundary of an Invisible Fence Brand electronic pet containment system.
Corrections are used in combination with rewards to alter unwanted pet behavior.

Your Invisible Fence Brand pet containment system will only work when:
  a. The transformer is connected to the transmitter and to a functional standard electric outlet, via an approved Lightning
     Protection Device. All Invisible Fence Brand pet containment systems must be grounded per the National Electric
     Code to be protected against lightning (for North American customers only).
  b. The transmitter is on, connected to the signal field wire, and producing a signal along the entire length of the wire.
  c. The signal field wire is intact, continuous, and the transmitter’s Status Indicator Light is blinking green.
  d. The Computer Collar is correctly fitted and worn by your pet. The Computer Collar must be adjusted so that both of
     the correction posts touch your pet’s skin.
  e. The Power Cap® in the Computer Collar is good and correctly installed.

About Thunder and Electrical Storms: Even though your Invisible Fence Brand pet containment system is equipped
with a Lightning Protection Device (for North American customers only), it is still possible that it may be damaged during
a thunderstorm, or when an electrical storm is in the area. After a storm has ended, check the signal field width. See page 6
for periodic maintenance checks.

Audible Alarm: There is an audible alarm for certain alert conditions (see chart below). Pressing either the S1 or S2
button on the transmitter circuit board will silence the alarm. The alarm will re-activate on power-up if a failure condition
still exists. Access S1 or S2 by gently pulling the tab at the bottom of the cover towards you. Once released at the bottom,
the top will come off the base.

properly. You will want to perform periodic maintenance checks to make sure the system is properly functioning for your pet’s
safe containment.

Monthly Signal Field Width Test                                                    Signal Field Width: ___________________
You should always be aware of your system’s signal field width.
Check the width of the signal field from only one place on the signal field
loop wire. Always check the signal field width from the same place. Take the          Invisible Fence® Brand
Computer Collar off your pet to measure the signal field width.                       Computer Collar® Unit
1. Hold the Invisible Fence Brand Computer Collar so it is parallel to the
   signal field wire.
2. Hold the collar so it is about the same height and at the same angle as it
   will be when the pet is wearing it.
3. Walk slowly toward the signal field wire. The receiver will activate when                                        h

     Battery Disposal
Separate collection of spent batteries is required in many regions; check the regulations in your area before discarding spent
batteries. The Computer Collar® operates on one (1) Lithium (Li-MnO2) battery with a 3 Volt, 160 mAh capacity. Replace
only with equivalent Power Cap® battery that can be obtained from your Invisible Fence® Brand Dealer. The Transmitter
operates on one (1) Valve Regulated Lead Acid Battery with a 12 Volt, 5Ah capacity.
Computer Collar: Please see your manual for instructions on how to remove the Power Cap battery for separate disposal.
Transmitter: At the end of product life of the Transmitter, please contact your Invisible Fence Brand Dealer to receive
instructions on proper disposal of the backup battery (if installed). Please do not dispose of the backup battery in household
or municipal waste receptacle.


   WARNING
Replacing the battery backup with a battery not specifically approved by Invisible Fence Brand, may cause fire or explosion. Refer
all service to your Invisible Fence Brand Dealer only.
