Fit the Receiver Collar
Refer to Wireless Option Step 4 on page 8 in this guide for instructions on how to
properly fit the Receiver Collar on your dog’s neck.
Additional Feature
Time Out Feature
For your pet’s safety, the Receiver Collar has a built in Time Out feature. If your pet
stays in the Barrier Area for longer than 15 seconds the Receiver Collar will stop
delivering the progressive Static Correction. The Receiver Collar will then administer a
random single Static Correction every 5 to 10 seconds at the maximum level until the
pet leaves the Barrier Area. Once your pet leaves the Barrier Area, the Receiver Collar
resets itself and will deliver a progressive Static Correction the next time your pet
enters the Barrier Area.
Training Guide
The PetSafe
®
Pawz Away
®
Outdoor Pet Barrier operates on the principle of positive and
negative reinforcement. Your pet will learn to avoid the Barrier Areas you have set after
receiving a progressive Static Correction (negative reinforcement) and your pet will learn
that he is more comfortable when he avoids the Barrier Areas (positive reinforcement).
In some cases, it may not be necessary to train your pet. You can let your pet wander freely
to determine the new boundaries. Monitor your pet during his first session. Pets learn at
different rates and it may take several times for your pet to successfully understand and honor
the Barrier Areas.
Begin Your Pet’s First Session
1. Move your pet away from the Barrier Area.
2. Activate the Receiver Collar by turning the battery door to the ON position. Place
the Receiver Collar around your pet’s neck. Be sure that the Receiver is directly under
your pet’s neck.
3. Allow your pet to wander freely to learn the new boundaries.
Further Training
If your pet is confused or unsure how to avoid the Barrier Areas then you may need to teach
your pet how to do so by following these easy training steps:
1. Place a second non metallic collar on your pet ABOVE the Receiver Collar and
attach a long leash.
