   Note: If you align the bottom first, the cover will not close correctly and it may come loose.

Installation

The doorbell push button contains a transmitter, that sends a code to the receiver located in the chime unit. Before installing the pushbuttons, you have to make sure that the chime unit recognizes the code of the push button. Proceed as follows:

1. Make sure that batteries are installed in the chime unit and doorbell push button.

2. Press the push button. The chime unit automatically recognizes the code and produces a chime.

3. Press the chime selection button [2] repeatedly to select the desired melody.

4. Press the volume button [3] repeatedly to select the desired volume level.

5. Place the chime unit and push the button in their desired locations.
   Note: Do not fix the units in place yet. You can hang the chime unit from a wall, or you can extend the foot [4] and stand the unit upright on any surface.

6. With the chime unit and push button in position, test the connection by pressing the push button. If the connection is OK, the chime unit produces a chime. (If there is no chime, see §9 for troubleshooting information.)

7. Fix the doorbell push button in the desired location using double-sided tape at the back [ 10].

Adding or Replacing Push Buttons

You can use up to 4 pushbuttons with the same chime unit. If you want to use a new push button, you need to make sure that the chime unit recognizes the code of the new push button. Proceed as follows:

1. Install the battery in the push button.
2. Press the coding button [1] on the chime unit.
3. Press the push button. If the code is set correctly, the chime unit will produce a chime.
4. You can now install the push button in its desired location.

Troubleshooting

• When the sound becomes weak, replace the batteries of the chime unit (see §6).
• If pushing the push button does not produce a chime:
  o, Check if the chime unit is located within the specified range (max. 60 m in open field). If not, bring it closer to the push button.
