4. Check the tightness of the Receiver Collar by inserting one finger between
the end of a Contact Point and you pet’s neck. The fit should be snug but not
constricting.
5. Allow your dog to wear the collar for several minutes, then recheck the fit.
Check the fit again as your dog becomes more comfortable with the Receiver
Collar.
6. Once you are satisfied with the fit of the Receiver Collar then you may trim any
excess collar strap as follows (11C).
a. Mark the desired length of the Receiver Collar with a pen. Allow for growth if
your pet is young or grows a thick winter coat.
b. Remove the Receiver Collar from your pet and cut off the excess.
c. Before placing the Receiver Collar back onto your pet, seal the edge of the
cut collar by applying a flame along the frayed edge.
Replacement collar straps are available through the Customer Care Center.

To Re-Thread the Collar
Slide Buckle
Ridges
The slide buckle prevents the collar from becoming
loose around your pet’s neck.
The ridges must be facing up; the collar will slip if it is
not properly threaded.
Check the Fit using PerfectFit ™ Test
Do not turn the Receiver Collar ON while it is placed on your pet. This will cause the Receiver Collar to fail the
ReadyTest ® .
If the Receiver Collar fails the ReadyTest ® , the Receiver Collar is automatically turned off. Your pet will not be
contained.
1. To check the fit of the Receiver Collar using the PerfectFit ™ test, Remove the Receiver Collar from your pet.
2. Turn ON the Receiver Collar. Wait for it to cycle through ReadyTest ® . Do not touch the Contact Points during the
ReadyTest ® .
3. Place the collar on your pet and adjust the tightness. The Receiver Collar will emit a tone as the Contact
Points touch your dog’s skin. You will know you have the proper fit when the collar chimes and flashes green 5
consecutive times.
4. After 90 seconds, the Receiver Collar moves into normal operation mode. If you do not hear the 5 consecutive
chimes, tighten the collar and repeat the PerfectFit ™ Test.
