Openthecoverbypressingthecliponthesideandpullingthecoverupwards.
Insertafresh1*1/2AAbattery,butpayattentiontothepolarity
InstallyourDoor/WindowSensor7.
Thesensorcanbemountedeitheronthemovingpartoronthefixedpartofadoororawindow.Mountingcanbe
accomplishedeitherusingthetapebypeelingofftheprotectionfoilorusingtwoscrewswiththeholesinsidethebattery
compartment.Ifthetiltdetectiononawindow(onlynormalwindows,noroofwindows)shallbeusedthesensordevice
mustbeplacedonthemovingpartofthewindowandthemagnetonthewindowframe.Thesensorcomeswithtwotypes
ofmagnets:
Thestandardmagnetcoveredbyplasticpart,mountablebesidethesensor.Makesurethetwoindicatinglineson
