HOW IT WORKS The Sunbeam® Essential In-Ground Fencing System is a training aid that helps train your dog to stay within a defined boundary. The System uses a wire to create a Boundary Zone where your dog will receive a Warning Tone and a Static Correction. Flags are arranged along the Boundary Zone to give your dog a visual aid. The area encompassed by the Boundary Flags is the Safe Zone.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Battery Installation IMPORTANT: This step is to be completed when the collar is NOT on your dog. • Remove two screws securing the battery compartment using a cross head or Phillips head screwdriver. (fig. 1) • Lift battery compartment from main body of Receiver Collar. (fig. 2) • Insert two CR2032 Lithium coin batteries into battery compartment. Batteries should be placed with the positive side facing down.
TEST THE COLLAR In order to make sure the Receiver Collar is working properly you must test it using your pre-installed Sunbeam® Essential In-Ground Fencing System. Do not test the Receiver Collar while it is on your dog. • Place the Test Light indentation holes directly onto the Receiver Collar stainless steel probes. (fig. 4) • Slowly bring the Receiver Collar near the Boundary Wire at your pet’s neck level with probes facing up (fig. 5).
COLLAR FITTING Proper fit of the Sunbeam® Receiver Collar is essential to establish a good training foundation and optimal performance. Note: Batteries should be installed properly and the Receiver Collar should be in the OFF position before proceeding with fitting the collar to your dog. STEP 1: Ensure dog is in a relaxed position. STEP 2: With the collar clasp open loosen the adjustment buckle such that it can reach completely around your dog’s neck. (fig.
STEP 6: Remove collar from dog and cut the excess collar material, leaving approximately 1 inch. STEP 7: Seal the edge of the collar using a flame. STEP 8: Reattach collar to your dog. Check the fit of the collar severaltimes per day. Wipe the stainless steel probes weekly with a damp cloth while collar is in OFF position. Reminder: If you choose to use a 2nd collar, leash or harness system, make sure it does not interfere with the operation of the Sunbeam® Receiver Collar.
SPECIAL OPERATING It is important to read the Training Manual included in you Sunbeam® Essential In-Ground Fencing System. You can also obtain this Training Manual at www.sunbeampets.com. The System is not a solid fence and will not contain your pets as well as a solid fence. Do not allow your dog to run free until the training process is complete. Keep your dog on a leash, tied down, or confined to a separate area until training is complete. Proper training is necessary to achieve the best results.
