How the System Works
The PetSafe ® Wireless Pet Containment System ® has been proven safe, comfortable, and effective for pets over
8 pounds. The system works by transmitting a radio signal up to 90 feet in all directions. You temporarily define
the Pet Area with Boundary Flags for a visual aid in training your pet. Your pet wears a Receiver Collar with
Contact Points that touch his neck, and, once trained, is allowed to roam freely in the Pet Area. When your pet
reaches the Boundary Zone, the Receiver Collar gives a warning beep before delivering a safe Static Correction
through the Contact Points to get his attention until he returns to the Pet Area.
Key Definitions
Transmitter: Transmits the radio signal and is the center
of the Pet Area.
Pet Area: Distance from the Transmitter where your pet
can roam freely.
Boundary Zone: 2 to 3 foot wide area outside
the Pet Area where your pet’s Receiver Collar will
begin to beep and then begin to deliver a Static
Correction. The correction will start in the Boundary
Zone and continue anywhere beyond the Pet Area.
Note: The Receiver Collar is equipped with a safety
time-out feature that will stop correcting after 30
seconds if your pet remains outside the Pet Area.
Receiver Collar: Receives the radio signal from
the Transmitter.
Correction Level Button: Adjusts the level of Static
Correction your pet receives outside the Pet Area.
Receiver Indicator Light: Indicates the level of
correction at which the Receiver Collar is set. This light
also serves as a low battery indicator.
Contact Points: Deliver the safe Static Correction when
your pet moves into the Boundary Zone.
Power Jack: Where the Power Adapter plugs into the
Transmitter. The Transmitter is powered by a standard
120-volt outlet.
Boundary Switch: Adjust according to the size of the Pet Area desired. Note: Adjusting the
switch does not change the level of Static Correction on the Receiver Collar.
Power Light: Indicates when the Transmitter is on.
Boundary Control Dial: Adjusts the distance from the Transmitter to the Boundary Zone.
Note: Adjusting the dial does not change the level of Static Correction on the Receiver Collar.
