Safety
Before proceeding with the installation, please note the following safety
warnings:
• Always follow the manufacturer’s advice when using power tools and wear
suitable protective equipment (e.g. safety goggles) when drilling holes, etc.
• Before drilling holes in walls, check for hidden electricity cables and water
pipes. The use of a cable/pipe locator is advisable if in doubt.
Install Doorbell
If you are not mounting the doorbell to the wall, place it where you want it.
1. Screw the doorbell wall mounting bracket
to the wall using the screws and anchors
included (if necessary).
Drill 1/4 inch holes for the anchors.
2. Hang the doorbell on the mounting bracket.
Installation
Choose a location that is not near a heat source or on something that moves
(like a door). For non-mounting locations, choose a place where the doorbell
