on the way down. This feature can be defeated in the unusual case that
binding or other restriction slows the door closure to the point that it un-
necessarily retracts. See the AUTOMATIC SAFETY RETRACT Section for
more information.
AUTO DEAD BOLT LOCKING FEATURE
The POWER PET door uses a spring loaded locking pin which automati-
cally snaps into its retaining hole when the movable panel comes to rest in
the closed position. The pin can only be released when the motor applies
tension to the cable. This makes it impossible for even the most clever
animals (and people) to raise the panel mechanically.
THREE DIFFERENT POWER CHOICES: Your new POWER PET
TM
Door may
be operated in three different power modes.
1. 110 volt AC Wall Outlet: Your standard POWER PET
TM
Door comes stan-
dard with a U.L. approved AC adapter. Plug the adapter into a nearby
wall outlet for continuous operation.
2. AC with Battery Back-up: You may purchase an optional recharge-
able battery for use along with your AC adapter. If your household
electricity should ever fail, your POWER PET
TM
Door will automatically
switch over to battery operation. When power is restored, the AC
adapter will automatically recharge your battery.
3. Full Battery Operation: You may also operate your POWER PET
TM
Door
with the battery only. This eliminates the need for the AC adapter or
any electrical power connection. However, you will need to recharge
the battery periodically. (Recharge interval varies depending upon
use.) In this case, we recommend that you purchase the optional
battery and a battery charger kit. With the charger kit you get a bat-
tery charger and an extra battery. Use one battery in your POWER
PET
TM
Door and keep the other in the charger. When your door battery
runs low, just swap.
DUAL RANGE CONTROLS: Individual range control to allow you to adjust
different activation distances for inside and outside of your home. (Usu-
ally, it’s a good idea to use a short distance of a foot or two inside, and a
longer 4 to 5 foot distance outside.) Your new POWER PET PX gives you
full control. Note: range markings on the door are not in units of distance,
but rather in signal strength. A marking of 10 produces the maximum
distance.
