Adjust the Pet Area to Desired Size

Make sure the entire Pet Area lies within your property boundaries (3A).

Always start determining the Boundary Zone at the shortest distance from

Transmitter. Place the Boundary Switch on “Low” if the Boundary Zone will

be less than 45 feet from the Transmitter.
Make sure the Receiver Collar battery is properly installed, the Static

Correction level is set at 2 or greater, and the Test Light Contacts are

touching the Contact Points (3B).
Note: If your next-door neighbor has an In-Ground containment system, see

Troubleshooting section page 19.

Test Light Instructions

1. Set the Correction Level to 2 or above.

2. Hold the Test Light Contacts to the Contact Points.

3. Walk toward the Boundary Zone holding the Receiver collar at your pet’s

neck level until the Test Light flashes.

Save Test Light for future testing.
Note: If the Test Light does not flash, install a new battery and re-test.

If Test Light still does not flash, contact the Customer Care Center at

1-800-732-2677.
To maximize your Pet Area, make sure the Boundary Switch is on “High” and

the Boundary Control Dial is set to “8”. Plug Power Adapter into Power Jack

and standard 120-volt outlet.

Two-Person Method

Hold the Receiver Collar at your pet’s neck height (3C) with logo side facing

away from the Transmitter and Contact Points facing upwards. Walk to the edge

of the desired Pet Area. Facing away from the Transmitter, hold the Receiver

Collar at the edge of the desired Pet Area (3D).
Starting with the Boundary Control Dial set to “8”, have a second person

turn the dial down SLOWLY. When the Receiver Collar starts to beep, tell the

person to stop turning the Boundary Control Dial. Record your settings below

for future reference.

One-Person Method

Measure the shortest distance from the desired Boundary

Zone to the Transmitter. Find the distance on the Transmitter

Range Chart on page 10 and set the Boundary Switch and

Boundary Control Dial. Hold the Test Light Contacts to the

Contact Points (3B). Take the Receiver Collar to the Boundary

Zone with the logo side facing away from the Transmitter and

Contact Points facing upwards (3C). Hold the Receiver Collar at

your pet’s neck level (3D) until the Receiver Collar beeps and

the Test Light flashes. If the Receiver Collar beeps before or

after the desired Boundary Zone, return to the Transmitter and

adjust the Boundary Control Dial. Repeat this process until

the Receiver Collar is beeping at the desired location. Record

your settings on page 10 for future reference.
