How the System Works
The PetSafe In-Ground Fence™ has been proven safe, comfortable, and
effective for all pets over 8 pounds. The system works by producing a
radio signal from the Fence Transmitter through the Boundary Wire.
The Boundary Wire is buried or attached to a fi xed object to enclose
the Pet Area. You temporarily defi ne this Pet Area with Boundary Flags
for a visual aid in training your pet. Your pet wears a Receiver Collar
with Contact Points that touch his neck, and, once trained, is allowed to
roam freely in the Pet Area. When your pet reaches the Warning Zone,
the Receiver Collar gives a warning beep. If your pet continues into
the Static Correction Zone, a safe Static Correction will be delivered
through the Contact Points to get his attention until he returns to the
Pet Area.

To Insert and Remove the Battery
Note: Do not install the battery while the Receiver Collar is on your pet.
This Receiver Collar
utilizes a replaceable

replacement easier and
increase water protection.
To insert the battery, align

clockwise until the arrow
lines up with the lock
symbol on the housing

To remove the battery,
turn the battery counterclockwise using the edge
of the Test Light Tool as
shown (C, D). DO NOT attempt to cut into or pry open the battery. Be sure
to discard the used battery properly.
A replacement PetSafe® battery (RFA-67) can be found at many retailers.
