Where to install

The Outdoor Siren should be mounted on the outside of your home. Choose a place that meets these criteria:

Visibility
Your Outdoor Siren’s LED lights and siren should be visible to anyone.

Safe access
You should install the Outdoor Siren in a spot where you can access the batteries safely. If you need to use a ladder, make sure there is solid ground below.

Close to your power source
If using the Plug-in adapter or hardwiring the Outdoor Siren, it should be close to an outlet or electrical wiring. If you’re using the Solar Panel, make sure the spot gets good sunlight.

Before you begin
Note: Make sure your alarm system is set up and working in the Ring app before you install.
You’ll need these tools:

• Ladder or sturdy platform
• Power drill with 7/32″ (6mm) drill bit compatible with your exterior wall material

• 2 Phillips head screwdriver

• Mounting hardware included with the Outdoor Siren, including screws, anchors, and mounting bracket

CAUTION : When standing on a ladder, please use extra caution when performing these tasks to minimize the risk of fal ling.

Setting up your Outdoor Siren

1. In-app setup
   Start by opening the Ring app and tap to open the menu.

2. Tap Set up a Device.

3. Tap Security.

4. Tap Sirens.

5. Tap Outdoor Siren.

6. Follow the directions in the app.

To scan the QR code, you’ll need to loosen the security screw on the bottom of the mounting bracket, then slide the bracket off of the Outdoor Siren. (The screw stays in the bracket.)

Complete a communications test

Before you begin installation, let’s make sure the spot you’ve chosen will be able to communicate with your alarm system.

Press the Test button inside the battery compartment on the back of the Outdoor Siren. The LED lights on the front will flash-this may take up to 30 seconds.

• Green means the test is successful.
• Red means it failed. Try moving a Range Extender between the Outdoor Siren and the alarm system, or find a new wall or area to mount the Outdoor Siren, then test again.

Mount the Outdoor Siren bracket

1. Hold the mounting bracket at the intended installation location and level it using the bubble level. 
2. Mark your holes using the mounting bracket as a guide.
3. Drill holes using a 7/32″ (6mm) drill bit, if using the included optional wall anchors.
4. If mounting on a softer exterior surface such as wood, you can drill the mounting screws directly into the wall surface.
5. Adjust the tamper arm screw to ensure that it makes contact with the mounting surface.

Connect your power sources

You can use one or multiple power sources to power your Outdoor Siren, and can set them up in any order. If you plan to use the Dusk to Dawn light setting, you must have more than one power source. Before you begin, make sure the battery cover is off, and after you finish connecting your power sources, put the battery cover back on. Use these directions for each power source.

Batteries (included)

• Pull the battery tab when prompted by the app.
• If you need to replace the batteries, match the+ and – icons to install them correctly.

Quick Release Battery Pack

Solar Panel

• Refer to the Solar Panel guide to learn how to install the Solar Panel.
• Remove the rubber stopper from the DC Jack on the back of the Outdoor Siren, then connect the Solar Panel to the Outdoor Siren.
• Add your Quick Release Battery Pack.

Hardwired

SAFETY NOTE
We recommend that you consult a licensed professional electrician if you are not experienced with hardwiring projects. Please use extra caution when using a ladder to minimize the risk of fall.

Plug-in Adapter 2nd Gen
The Outdoor Siren’s hardwire terminal block supports the Ring Plug-in Adapter 2nd Gen.

5. Testing your Outdoor Siren
   When the app prompts you, test your new Outdoor Siren.
