Prepare the Receiver Collar
Your Receiver Collar comes with short Contact Points installed. Use the Long Contact Points for
pets with long or thick hair. Tighten the Contact Points using Test Light Tool (5A) one-half turn
beyond finger tight. Check the tightness weekly.
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-67). This unique battery is
designed to make battery replacement easier and increase water protection.
To insert the battery, align the symbols on the battery (arrow) and Receiver Collar (triangle)
(5B). Use the edge of the Test Light Tool to turn the battery clockwise until the arrow lines up
with the lock symbol on the housing.
To remove the battery, turn the battery counter-clockwise using the edge of the Test Light
Tool (5C). DO NOT attempt to cut into or pry open the battery. Be sure to discard the used
battery properly. Battery life will vary depending on how often your pet tests the system and
receives a Static Correction. Check the Receiver Collar every month to ensure the battery is
working properly.

If the Receiver LED Indicator Light is flashing every 4 to 5 seconds, battery replacement is required. Remove the old
battery from the Receiver Collar. Discharge all power by holding the correction level button down until the LED is
no longer illuminated. Replace with a new battery.
A replacement PetSafe
® battery (RFA-67) can be found at many retailers. Contact the Customer Care Center or visit
our web site 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.

to expose the Correction Level Button (5D).
2. With the battery installed, press the Correction Level
Button and release when the Receiver Indicator Light
lights up (5E).
3. The Receiver Indicator Light will emit a series of flashes
representing the Static Correction Level.

The Static Correction levels increase in strength 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 fits your pet.
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 LED Indicator Light acts as a low battery indicator, flashing every 4 to 5 seconds when replacement is
required.
