How the System Works
A radio signal travels through a buried wire, marking the boundaries you wish to set for your dog. Your dog wears a Receiver
Collar that detects the signal at the boundary. As your dog approaches the boundary, the receiver issues a warning tone
with vibration. If he proceeds further, he receives a safe but startling Static Correction. While harmless, the Correction
will persuade him to stay in the Containment Area you've established. The Stubborn Dog Receiver Collar offers 5 levels of
correction, adjustable to your dog's temperament. This PetSafe
safe, comfortable, and effective for pets over 3.6 kg (8 lbs).
Key Definitions
Fence Transmitter: Transmits the radio signal through the Boundary Wire.
Pet Area: Area within the Warning Zone where your pet can roam freely.
Warning Zone: Outer edge of the Pet Area where your pet's Receiver Collar begins to beep, warning him not to go into the
Static Correction Zone.
Static Correction Zone: Zone beyond the Warning Zone where your pet's Receiver Collar will emit a Static Correction,
signaling him to return to the Pet Area.
Boundary Width: Combination of the Warning Zone and the Static Correction Zone.
Receiver Collar: Receives the radio signal from the Boundary Wire.
Correction Level Button: Adjusts the level of Static Correction your pet receives in the Static Correction Zone.
Receiver Indicator Light: Indicates the level of correction at which the Receiver Collar is set. This light also serves as a
low battery indicator.
Contact Points: Delivers the safe Static Correction when your pet moves into the Static Correction Zone.
Power Jack: Where the Power Adapter plugs into the Fence Transmitter. The Fence Transmitter is powered by a
standard outlet.
Boundary Control Switch: Switch located on the Fence Transmitter to adjust according to the length of Boundary Wire used.
Boundary Wire Terminals: Where the Boundary Wires connect to the Fence Transmitter in order to complete a
continuous loop.
Loop Indicator Light: Indicates that the Boundary Wire makes a complete loop, enabling the signal to be transmitted.
Boundary Width Control: Adjusts the width of the Warning and Static Correction Zones. Note: Adjusting the knob does not
change the level of Static Correction on the Receiver Collar.
