Prepare the Receiver Collar
To Insert and Remove the Battery
Note: Do not install the battery while the Receiver Collar is on your pet.
This Receiver Collar utilizes a replaceable PetSafe
®
battery
(RFA-188). This unique battery is designed to make battery
replacement easier and increase water protection.
To activate the collar, insert the battery module (5A). Using the
edge of the Test Light Tool as shown, turn the battery clockwise
until the vertical line on the battery is pointed to the “ON”
position (5B). If the PetSafe
®
Receiver Collar is not going to be
used on the pet immediately, leave it in the “OFF” position.
To remove the battery, turn the battery counter-clockwise using
the edge of the Test Light Tool as shown (5C, 5D). DO NOT
attempt to cut into or pry open the battery. Be sure to discard the
used battery properly.
A replacement PetSafe
®
battery can be found at many retailers.
Contact the Customer Care Centre or visit our website at
www.petsafe.net to locate a retailer near you.

To Set the Static Correction Level
Read all steps before attempting to set the Static Correction Level.
1. With the battery installed, press the Correction Level Button and release when the
Receiver Indicator Light lights red (5E).
2. The Receiver Indicator Light will emit a number of red fl ashes representing the Static
Correction Level (5F).
3. Increase the Static Correction Level by pressing and releasing the Correction Level
Button within 5 seconds of the previous fl ashes.
The Static Correction Levels increase from 1 to 5. Pushing the Correction Level Button while
the Receiver Collar is on level 5 will cause the Receiver Collar to revert to level 1. Refer to the
Function and Response Table to choose the Static Correction level that best fi ts your pet.
5E
5F
The Receiver Collar is equipped to automatically increase the level of Static Correction the longer your pet remains in
the Static Correction Zone if the collar is set at level 2 or above.
The Receiver Indicator Light acts as a low battery indicator, fl ashing every 60 seconds when battery replacement is required.
Test your Receiver Collar at least once a month to verify that it is functioning properly. Check that it activates at the
Boundary Wire.
Over Correction Protection
In the unlikely event that your pet “freezes” in the Static Correction Zone, this feature limits the static correction duration
to 30 seconds. The system locks out further static correction until the pet leaves the Static Correction Zone.
