Find the Best Vibration Level for Your Pet
Important: Always start at the lowest level and work your way up.
The Remote Trainer has 8 Low and 8 High Vibration Levels. This allows you to choose the Vibration Level
that is best for your pet.
Once you have placed the Receiver Collar on your pet, it is time to find the Vibration Level that is best for
him. This is called the Recognition Level.
A slight change in your pet's behaviour, such as looking around in curiosity, scratching at his collar, or
flicking his ears, indicates the Recognition Level that is best for him.
Follow the steps below to find your pet's Recognition Level:
1. Starting at Level 1 Low on the Digital Display, press the Vibration Button (blue) continuously for 1 to 2
seconds. Note: A safety time-out will be triggered if the button is held for more than 10 consecutive
seconds. The safety time-out will end when the button is released.
2. If your pet shows no reaction, repeat the same Vibration Level several times before moving up to
the next level.
3. YOUR PET SHOULD NOT VOCALISE OR PANIC WHEN RECEIVING VIBRATION STIMULATION.
IF THIS HAPPENS, THE LEVEL IS TOO HIGH AND YOU NEED TO GO BACK TO THE PREVIOUS
LEVEL AND REPEAT THE PROCESS.
4. Move up through the Vibration Levels until your pet reliably responds to that level.
5. If your pet continues to show no response at Level 8 High, check the fit of the Receiver Collar. If your
pet has long or thick hair, your pet's hair will need to be trimmed around the Vibration Points.
Do not shave the pet's neck as this may increase the risk of skin irritation.
If, after completing all of these steps, your dog still does not indicate he is feeling the Vibration
Stimulation, please contact Customer Care Centre or visit our website at www.petsafe.net.
+2 Boost
Pressing the +2 Boost Button (Red) sends a signal to the Receiver Collar to issue a Vibration Stimulation
that is 2 levels higher than the currently selected level. For example, if the Vibration Level is set at Level
2 Low, pressing the +2 Boost Button will stimulate at Level 4 Low. Note: The system can not exceed the
8 High Vibration Level.
