Set Up the Transmitter
Important: You may need to move the Transmitter several times before determining the final location.
The Transmitter is located at the exact centre of the desired Pet Area. Place the Transmitter:
• 0.6 to 1.2 m (2 to 4 ft) above the floor.
• In a dry, well ventilated, protected area.
• In an area where temperatures do not fall below freezing (e.g., garage, basement, shed, cupboard).
• On a non-metal table or mount on a wall (1A). A mounting template is included on the back of this guide.
• At least 1 m (3 ft) from large metal objects, as these items may reduce the size and shape of your Pet Area
(1B).
To maximize your Pet Area, make sure
the Boundary Switch is on “High”
and the Boundary Control Dial is set
to “8” (1C). Plug Power Adapter into
Power Jack and standard 120-volt
outlet. Turn the Transmitter on.
Prepare the Receiver Collar
Your Receiver Collar comes with short Contact Points installed. Use the long Contact Points for pets with long or
thick hair. Remove and retighten the Contact Points using pliers. The Contact Points should be tightened one-half
turn beyond finger tight (2A). Check the tightness weekly.
To Insert and Remove the Battery
Note: Do not install the battery while the Receiver Collar is on your pet.
This process should be carried out within 1.5 m (5 ft) of the Transmitter.
The Receiver Collar utilizes a replaceable PetSafe
®
battery (RFA-67). This unique battery is designed to make battery
replacement easier and increase water protection.
To insert the battery, align the symbols on the battery (arrow) and Receiver Collar (triangle) (2B). Use a large coin
to turn the battery clockwise until the arrow lines up with the lock symbol on the housing (2C) .
To remove the battery, turn the battery anti-clockwise using a large coin (2D, 2E). DO NOT attempt to cut into or
pry open the battery. Be sure to discard the used battery properly.
A replacement PetSafe
®
battery (RFA-67) can be found at many retailers. Contact the Customer Care Centre or
visit our web site at www.petsafe.net to locate a retailer near you.
