Petsafe PPA11-10709 User Manual

AUTOMATIC MODE – Allows entry and exit for a pet wearing a programmed SmartKey

™

.      

To set: hold the MODE-RESET button until the yellow light illuminates and release when 

selected. Five SmartKeys

™

 can be programmed to one SmartDoor

™

 for selective entry and exit 

during AUTOMATIC MODE.

NOTE: 

If at any time the red light remains illuminated, replace with a set of fresh batteries. If 

that does not reset the red light, please call our Customer Care Center for additional help.

If any part of step C was unsuccessful, please call our Customer Care Center for additional help.

Prior to installation, it is recommended to check that the SmartDoor

™

 will operate properly in the 

intended location or application to guard against possible severe radio-frequency interference. 

Household appliances and common electronic products should be located at least two feet (60 cm) 

away from the SmartDoor

™

’s location. Radio-frequency interference detected from other household 

appliances or common electronic products will negatively affect the ability of the SmartDoor

™

 to 

receive a SmartKey

™

 signal. Typical appliances and products to consider are laptop computers, 

wireless telephones, microwaves, televisions, garage door openers, hand-held electronic devices 

(such as cell phones, game stations and remote controls).
The sticker placed over the sensitivity knob should not be removed until after installation, as the 

factory default sensitivity setting is positioned at the optimal level for most installations.
It is recommended to install SmartDoor

™

 in a location where direct wind is not a factor. Operating 

Temperature Range: -5˚ F to 180˚ F (-20.5˚ C to 82˚ C). Operating Humidity Range: 0 to 99.9%.
•  To check if SmartDoor

™

’s radio-frequency technology will operate properly in desired location 

and application, place SmartDoor

™

 directly in front of and against the door or application in the 

upright position. After performing steps A-C, now set the SmartDoor

™

 in AUTOMATIC mode and 

hold the SmartKey

™

 directly in front of the SmartDoor

™

. The SmartDoor

™

 fl ap should unlock in 

about three seconds. Remember, the SmartKey

™

 included in the kit is already programmed to  

the SmartDoor

™

.

   

NOTE: 

If there are existing SmartKeys

™

 in the household, remove all (RFA-67)                                                                                                    

  batteries while performing step D except the SmartKey

™

 included with the SmartDoor

™

.

If the SmartDoor

™

 does not unlock, move the SmartDoor

™

 to another location and follow steps A-D 

once more. If the SmartDoor

™

’s location test above was unsuccessful, please call our Customer 

Care Center for additional help. 
When steps A-D are completed and all are successful, your SmartDoor

™

 is ready for installation.
