To assure a proper fit, please follow these steps:
1. Turn the Power OFF at the Fence Transmitter.
2. Start with your pet standing comfortably (
11A
).
3. Place the Receiver Collar on your pet so that the “PetSafe
®
” logo is right side up and
the receiver is directly under your pet’s chin. Center the Contact Points underneath
your pet’s neck, touching the skin (
11B
).
You may need to trim the hair in the area of the Contact Points. Never shave the
dog’s neck; this may lead to a rash or infection.

4. The PetSafe
®
QuickFit
™
Collar is designed so you can quickly
attach and remove the Receiver Collar from your pet while
maintaining the desired fit.
a. With the Snap Buckle fastened (
11C
), thread the collar through
the Metal Buckle (
11D
).
b. Slide the excess collar through the “C” Loop on top of the Snap
Buckle (
11E
). This will hold the excess collar in place.
11B
c. Once the collar fit is determined, use the Snap Buckle to remove
and replace the collar.
5. The Receiver Collar should fit snugly, yet loose enough to allow
one finger to fit between a Contact Point and your pet’s neck
(
11F
). Allow your pet to wear the collar for several minutes, then
recheck the fit. Check the fit again as your pet becomes more
comfortable with the Receiver Collar.
6. Trim the collar as follows:
a. Mark the desired length of the collar with a pen. Allow for growth
if your pet is young or grows a thick winter coat.

5 seconds. Remove the Receiver Collar and wait approximately 8 seconds for the collar to go through the

tightness until you hear the 5 consecutive chimes, indicating a good fit. If you do not hear the 5 consecutive
