Place the Boundary Flags
The Boundary Flags are visual reminders for your pet of where the Warning Zone is located.
1. Place the Test Light contacts on the contact
points and hold the Receiver Collar at your
pet’s neck height.
2. Walk towards the Warning Zone until the
Receiver Collar beeps (8A).
3. Place a Boundary Flag in the ground (8B).
4. Walk back into the Pet Area until the
beeping stops.
5. Repeat this process around the Warning
Zone until it is marked with Boundary Flags
every 10 feet.

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. Make sure that the battery is not installed in the Receiver Collar.
2. Start with your pet standing comfortably (9A).
3. 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.
Note: It is sometimes necessary to trim the hair around the Contact Points to make sure that
contact is consistent.
