How the PetSafe

Deluxe Bark
Control Collar
™
Works
The Deluxe Bark Control Collar ™ has a unique patented sensor technique that provides the most
reliable bark detection available. The Bark Control Collar uses both vibration and sound sensors
to discriminate each bark from other external noises. A Static Correction is administered through
the Contact Points only if both the vibration from the vocal cords and the sound from the bark
match the bark sampling criteria. The Bark Control Collar starts with the lowest level of Static
Correction in each Mode and then increases through 6 levels each time your dog barks within 30
seconds of the previous bark. If your dog does not bark again within 30 seconds, the Bark Control
Collar will reset itself to the lowest level of Static Correction in the current Mode. Along with each
Static Correction, the LED Indicator Light will flash. As a built-in safety feature, if your dog barks
15 times or more within a 50-second period, the Bark Control Collar will automatically shut off for
3 minutes.
