Fit the Receiver Collar
Important: The proper fit and placement of your Receiver Collar
is important for effective training. The Contact Points must have
direct contact with your pet’s skin on the underside of his neck.
To assure a proper fit, please follow these steps:
1. Remove and discard the Guardian
®
security tag ( G ).
2. Make sure that the battery is not installed in the
Receiver Collar.
3. Start with your pet standing comfortably ( H ).
4. Place the Receiver Collar on your pet so that the
“Guardian
®
by 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, use the enclosed long Contact
Points to reach through the hair.
Note: It is sometimes
necessary to trim the hair around the Contact Points to
make sure that contact is consistent.

5. Check the tightness
of the Receiver Collar
by inserting one fi nger
between the end of a
Contact Point and
your pet’s neck. The fi t
should be snug but not
constricting (
I ).
6. Allow your pet to wear the
collar for several minutes

then recheck the fi t. Check the fi t again as your pet becomes more
comfortable with the Receiver Collar.
