Note: It is recommended to keep the small magnetic portion 3/4” away from the sensor. Do not place the small magnetic portion directly on the sensor.
Installing the Sensor
Location tips:
- Install the sensor in an indoor environment.
- If you are using a door, place the sensor at the top of your door to keep safe from being bumped and out of reach rom children or pets.
- The sensor and magnet must be in line with each other and no more than 3/4” apart.
IMPORTANT : Install the magnet to the right of the sensor.
- Choose an area for the sensor to be placed such as a window or door.
- Ensure that the bluetooth connection is steady to the hub before mounting.
- Peel the mounting adhesive, stick it to the frame and attach the sensor. Repeat this step for the magnet and attach it to the door or window.
- Open and close the door or window to ensure the sensor stays in place.

one year before it needs to be replaced.

- Slide the old battery out of the sensor and replace it with a new battery.
