How the System Works
The PetSafe
®
Wireless Pet Containment System™ has been proven safe, comfortable, and effective for
all pets over 3.6 kg (8 lb). The system works by transmitting a radio signal up to 27.5 m (90 ft) in all
directions. You temporarily defi ne 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 within the Pet Area. When your pet reaches the Boundary Zone, the Receiver
Collar gives a warning beep before delivering a safe Static Stimulation through the Contact Points to
get his attention until he returns to the Pet Area.
Key Defi nitions
Transmitter: Transmits the radio signal and
is the centre of the Pet Area.
Pet Area: The area around the Transmitter
where your pet can roam freely.
Boundary Zone: A 0.6 m to 1 m (2 ft to 3 ft)
wide ring outside the Pet Area where your
pet’s Receiver Collar will begin to beep and
then begin to deliver a Static Stimulation.
The stimulation 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.
Stimulation Level Button: Adjusts the
level of Static Stimulation your pet receives
outside the Pet Area.
Receiver Indicator Light: Indicates the
level of stimulation at which the Receiver
Collar is set. This light also serves as a low
battery indicator.
Contact Points: Deliver the safe Static
Stimulation 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 outlet.
Boundary Switch: Adjusts the size according to the size of the Pet Area desired.
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 Stimulation on the Receiver Collar.
Note: In many
neighbourhoods, nearby
property lines may limit
how large the Pet Area
can be.
