Petsafe IN-GROUND FENCE PIG00-10773 - Manual (Page 7)

How the System Works
A radio signal travels from the Fence Transmitter through a buried wire, marking the
boundaries you wish to set for your dog. Your dog wears a Receiver Collar that detects the
signal at the boundary. As your dog approaches the boundary, the receiver issues a warning
tone. If he proceeds further, he receives a safe but startling Static Correction. While harmless,
the correction will persuade him to stay in the containment area you’ve established.
Boundary flags are a temporary visual aid for your pet; remove them after training. This
PetSafe ® Elite Little Dog In-Ground Fence ™ has been proven safe, comfortable, and effective
for pets over 5 pounds, neck sizes 6 to 16 inches.
Key Definitions
Fence Transmitter: Transmits the radio signal through the Boundary Wire.
Pet Area: Area within the Warning Zone where your pet can roam freely.
Warning Zone: Outer edge of the Pet Area where your pet’s Receiver Collar begins to beep, warning him
not to go into the Static Correction Zone.
Static Correction Zone: Zone beyond the Warning Zone where your pet’s Receiver Collar will emit a
Static Correction, signaling him to return to the Pet Area.
Boundary Width: Combination of the Warning Zone and the Static Correction Zone.

surges. (USA and Canada only)
Receiver Collar: Receives the radio signal from the Boundary Wire.

also serves as a low battery indicator.

Power Jack: Where the Power Adapter plugs into the Fence Transmitter.
Boundary Control Switch: Switch located on the Fence Transmitter to adjust according to the length of
Boundary Wire used.
