The HPM Wireless Door Chime is an example of superior design and craftsmanship. The following
suggestions will help you care for the Door Chime so you can enjoy it for years:
1. Keep the Door Chime dry. If the Door Chime gets wet, wipe it dry immediately. Liquids might contain
minerals that can corrode the electronic circuits.
2. Use and store the Door Chime only in normal temperature environments. Temperature extremes
can shorten the life of electronic devices, damage batteries, and distort or melt plastic parts.
3. Handle the Door Chime gently and carefully. Dropping it can damage the circuit boards and can
cause the door chime to work improperly.
4. Keep the Door Chime away from dust and dirt, which can cause premature wear of parts.
5. Wipe the Door Chime with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new. Do not use harsh
chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean the chime.
6. Use only fresh batteries of the recommended size and type. Always remove old or weak batteries.
They can leak chemicals that can destroy electronic circuits.
7. Modifying or tampering with the Door Chime’s internal components can cause a malfunction and
might invalidate its warranty.
8. Care should be taken when replacing Receiver batteries. Open casing carefully so as not to damage
the internal wiring.

Door Chime Receiver
Step 1: Depress tab on Door Chime Receiver to remove back cover plate.
Step 2: Insert 3 x ‘C’ size alkaline batteries ensuring that the coil springs contact the negative (-) end of
each battery.
The Door Chime Receiver is fully portable and free-standing and can be placed anywhere in the house
(e.g., table, bookshelf, cupboard, mantelpiece, window sill, etc). It can also be fixed temporarily or
permanently to a wall as required.
BEFORE PERMANENTLY FIXING BELL PRESS AND DOOR CHIME RECEIVER IN PLACE, TEST LOCATION
OF BOTH UNITS TO ENSURE SATISFACTORY OPERATION.
The Door Chime Receiver has one slotted hang hole on the back. This hole will enable the Door Chime
Receiver to be hooked onto a screw and easily removed or relocated.
Bell Press Unit
Step 1: Remove front plate cover by lifting bottom edge and sliding out.
Step 2: Insert 12V battery (included in pack) ensuring the
positive (+) end of the battery is at the (+) in the battery
compartment. (see Fig 1.).
Step 3: Replace front plate cover.
Step 4: Press the Push Button to ensure that the red LED indicator
lamp lights, indicating that the battery is correctly installed.
Step 5: Fix the unit either directly to your front door or a position
close by using the self-adhesive foam mounting pads
supplied. The chosen mounting position should not be
exposed to direct sunlight or rain. The device can also be
used as a remote control and doesn’t require any installation.
IMPORTANT: Do not mount the Bell Press Transmitter on metal or near a metal door frame, security door,
or in close proximity to any metal outdoor furniture as the range of the unit will be substantially reduced.
The Bell Press Transmitter has one 12 volt battery (type 3LR50) included which should last about 850
days (in excess of 2 years) under normal operating conditions.
The Door Chime Receiver is powered by 3 x ‘C’ size batteries (not included). Alkaline batteries are
recommended for longer operating life, up to 180 days.
IMPORTANT: Do not use rechargeable batteries, do not mix old and new batteries or different types.

12 Troubleshooting
PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SUGGESTED SOLUTION
The Door Chime is
intermittent when it
is activated or sounds
when not activated.
A similar door chime with the same
frequency is operated nearby.
Change the channel of your Door
Chime and Bell Press (refer to
Changing Operating Channels).
9Changing Operating Channels
Should your Door
Chime Receiver activate
intermittently for no
reason, it is possible
that the uncontrolled
activation may be
caused by another unit
operating nearby on the
same frequency coding.
The encoded frequency
of the transmitter (Bell
Press Transmitter)
and receiver (Door
Chime Receiver) can be
changed to avoid this
problem.
First, turn the two devices so their backs are facing you. Using long nose pliers, place a jumper (small
black device included in pack with the adhesive ‘ foam pads’ or double-sided tape) on the same row of
pins on both devices. To change the preset channel place the jumpers on same row #. (See Fig 2.)
It is essential that the jumper positions are the same for both units. Test to ensure correct operation.
NB: Use of long nose pliers to install jumper may be required.
