Important Instructions
Always read the manufacturer’s instructions carefully before installation and use.
- Keep all electronic components away from water unless they are specifically rated as water-resistant. This is particularly important for a pet-operated device, as pets may be wet when they use it.
- If the device uses batteries, make sure to insert them correctly according to the +/- indications. Batteries should be kept away from children and pets, and they should not be recharged unless they are labeled as rechargeable.
- When mounting the device, make sure it is securely attached to the wall or door to prevent it from falling. If using adhesive tape, ensure that it is strong enough to hold the device in place.
- Small parts such as screws or battery covers should be kept out of reach of children and pets to prevent choking.
- If the device plugs into an electrical outlet, ensure that it does not overload the circuit. It should be plugged into a surge protector if possible.
- Regularly test the doorbell to ensure it is working correctly. This will help prevent reliance on a non-functioning device, which could lead to safety issues if, for example, a pet is relying on it to be let outside.
- Check the device periodically for signs of wear and tear, especially if pets are using it. Replace any worn parts immediately.
- Some electronics can be sensitive to extreme temperatures. Do not install the transmitter or receiver in locations where they can be exposed to extreme heat or cold, which could affect their functionality.
- Initially, supervise your pet when they are learning to use the doorbell to ensure they are using it correctly and not chewing on any parts of the device.
- Be aware of any materials used in the doorbell that may cause allergic reactions in humans or pets.

Dog Training Tips
- Step 1
- Begin by introducing the bell to your puppy’s nose. Once the puppy touches the bell, positively reinforce with a “yes!” and a treat. You can entice your puppy to touch the bell by placing a treat behind it or applying peanut butter. Repeat until your puppy consistently touches the bell with their nose, offering praise and treats. Once your puppy confidently touches the bell, introduce a cue word like “touch” or “bell.” Gradually increase the distance between the puppy and the bell to encourage movement.
- Step 2
- Once your puppy is proficient at touching the bell, affix it to the door or wall using 3M double-sided tape. Prompt your puppy to touch the bell, and upon doing so, reward it with praise and treats. Repeat until your puppy responds to the cue consistently. Note that learning speed may vary among dogs, ranging from hours to weeks.
- Step 3
- Teach your puppy to ring the bell at the appropriate times. Approach the door with your puppy, point to the bell, and give the cue. When the puppy touches the bell, affirm with “yes!” and proceed to open the door. With repetition, your puppy will associate the bell ringing with the door opening.
If your puppy begins to ring the bell for non-potty reasons, such as playtime, reinforce the association with potty time. When the bell is rung, leash your puppy and guide them to the designated potty area. If they relieve themselves, reward them with praise and treats. Otherwise, return indoors promptly. Over time, your dog will understand that bell ringing signifies an opportunity to relieve themselves outside.
