To assure a proper fit, please follow these steps:
1. Using the Test Light Tool, turn the battery door to the OFF position.
Start with your pet standing comfortably (
4A
).
2. Place the Receiver collar on your pet so that the PetSafe
®
logo
is facing your pet’s chin. Center the Contact Points underneath
your pet’s neck, touching the skin. If your pet has a long or thick
coat then it may be necessary to trim the hair around the Contact
Points to make sure that contact is consistent.
Note: The Receiver Collar comes with short Contact Points. Long
Contact Points are available and can be purchased through the
4A
Customer Care Center. Please see the Accessories section of this Operating and
Training Guide for more information.
Adjust the tightness of the Receiver Collar to
fit your pet’s neck. Check the tightness of the
Receiver Collar by inserting one finger between
the end of a Contact Point and your pet’s neck.
The fit should be snug but not constricting (
4B
).
3. Allow your pet to wear the Receiver Collar
for several minutes then recheck the fit.
Check the fit again as your pet becomes
more comfortable with the Receiver Collar.
Once you are satisfied with the fit of the Receiver
Collar then you may trim any excess collar strap
as follows (
4C
):
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.
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.
