Power Up the Barrier Transmitter
Locate the battery door on the bottom of the Barrier Transmitter. Loosen the 4 Phillips
head screws. The screws will stay in the battery lid. Install 4 alkaline D-batteries and
replace the battery door.
Under normal conditions, the batteries will operate the transmitter for up to one year.
Test the system every month to ensure it is working properly.
Set Up the Barrier Transmitter
To prevent an unintended correction, never perform set-up
procedures while your pet is wearing the Receiver Collar.
1. Turn the Barrier Transmitter upright and open the lid
exposing the LCD display and range buttons.
2. Press the up (+) button once to turn ON the Barrier
Transmitter. A black segment in the bottom of the LCD
display indicates the unit is set to the lowest range (2A).
3. Each segment represents approximately two feet of
diameter. You can create a Barrier Area up to 16 feet in
diameter. Using the up (+) and down (-) buttons, adjust the
range to fit the desired pet Barrier Area.

Test the Barrier Area
1. Keeping your hands away from the Contact Points, use the
edge of the Test Light Tool to turn the receiver battery door
to the ON position.
2. Hold the Receiver Collar with the Contact Points facing up. Place
the Test Light Tool on the Contact Points so that the wire in the
Test Light Tool touches the Contact Points (3A). The PetSafe
®
logo on the Receiver Collar should face the Transmitter.
3. Hold the Receiver Collar at the approximate height of your
dog’s neck (3B). Start outside of the range and walk slowly
toward the Barrier Transmitter. As you reach the Barrier Area, the
Receiver Collar emits a series of high-pitched tones. For each
tone you hear, you should notice the Test Light flashing which
indicates that a progressive Static Correction is being delivered.
The Receiver Collar’s tone is easily heard by dogs but may be at
a volume level difficult for some humans to hear.
4. Check the range of the Barrier Area from multiple angles to
ensure you are getting the desired coverage.
If you place the Barrier Transmitter close to your house, the
signal may transmit through a wall. Be sure to test the Receiver
Collar inside your home.
