Fit the Training Collar
Important: The proper fit and placement of your training collar is important for effective operation. The
contact points must have direct contact with your dog’s skin on the underside of his neck.
1. Start with the collar turned off and your dog standing comfortably, not sitting (
A
).
2. Place the collar on your pet so that the PetSafe
®
logo is right side up and the collar is directly
under your dog’s chin. Center the contact points underneath your dog’s neck, touching the
skin (
B
).
NOTE:
It is sometimes necessary to trim the hair around the contact points to make
sure that contact is consistent.
3. Check the tightness of the collar by inserting one finger between
the end of a contact point and your dog’s neck (
C
). The fit should
be snug but not constricting.
4. 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 collar.
Do not shave the pet’s neck as this may increase the risk of skin irritation.
The collar should not be worn for more than 12 hours out of every 24-hour
period. Leaving the collar on too long could lead to skin irritation.
Find the Best Stimulation Level for Your Pet
Important: Always start at the lowest level and work your way up.
The Remote Trainer has 1 tone, 1 vibration, and 15 static stimulation levels. This allows you to choose the stimulation
level that is best for your pet. We recommend training with tone and vibration, or the lower levels of static correction
when needed. In most cases static levels 1–7 will be adequate for your training needs.
Once you have placed the training collar on your pet, it is time to find the “recognition level”. The “recognition level” is
the stimulation level that your dog begins to notice. It should not make your pet uncomfortable. YOUR PET SHOULD
NOT VOCALIZE OR PANIC WHEN RECEIVING STIMULATION. IF THIS HAPPENS, THE STIMULATION IS
TOO HIGH AND YOU NEED TO GO BACK TO THE PREVIOUS LEVEL.
Follow the steps below to find your pet’s recognition level:
1. Choose level 0, and press the upper right button continuously for 1 to 2 seconds.
2. If your pet shows no reaction, repeat this several times before moving to static stimulation.
3. Choose level 1 and press the upper right button continuously for 1 to 2 seconds.
4. If your pet shows no reaction, repeat this stimulation level several times before moving up to the next level.
5. Move up through the static stimulation levels until your pet reliably responds to the stimulation.
.
6. If your pet continues to show no response at Level 15, check the fit of the training collar. See “Fit the Training
Collar”. You might also want to test it on your hand at a lower level to ensure the collar is working.
If all of these steps have been done and your pet continues to show no reaction to the stimulation, please contact our
Customer Care Center.
