Setting the Doorbell’s Volume

Slide VOL located inside the battery compartment to level 1, 2 or 3.

Testing the Doorbell

Test the doorbell before permanently mounting it. With the indoor intercom plugged into a standard AC outlet, adjust VOLUME on the indoor intercom to its middle position. Press BELL on the doorbell intercom. The doorbell should sound.

Mounting the Doorbell

1.Drill four 3/16 inch diameter holes into the mounting surface. Insert an anchor into each hole.

2.Align the supplied metal mounting bracket with the drilled holes and drive a screw (not supplied) through the bracket into each hole. Do not overtighten the screws.

3.Align the slot on the back of the doorbell with the hook on the mounting bracket. Carefully push the doorbell onto the hook and slide it down to secure it.

4.Once the doorbell is securely on the bracket, insert the pan-head machine screw (supplied) through the hole on the lower edge of the doorbell into the threaded holes in the bracket.

Mounting the Indoor Intercom

Follow these steps to mount the indoor intercom on a wall.

Note: You need two screws (not supplied) with heads that fit into the keyhole slots on the bottom of the intercom.

1.Mark the mounting screw locations 21/2 inches (64 mm) apart, one above the other.

2.Drill a starter hole at each mark.

3.Thread a screw into each hole until the screw’s head extends about 1/8 inch (3.5mm) from the wall.

4.Align the keyhole slots on the bottom of the intercom with the screw heads in the wall, then slide the intercom down to secure it and lift and extend the antenna.

Connecting the Indoor Intercom to AC Power

Locate a standard AC outlet in the area where you want to hear the chime and use the intercom. Plug the indoor intercom’s power cord into the outlet.

Caution: This product is equipped with a three-wire grounding-type plug ( a plug having a third grounding pin). This plug will only fit into a grounding-type power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into your AC outlet, contact your electrician to replace your outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding- type plug.

Important: Be sure you install the stations at least 10 feet away from each other. Placing the stations too close together produces feedback (a squeal or howl from the speakers). The stations can transmit up to 300 feet, including between buildings, as long as they are connected to the same power line transformer.

OPERATION

Turning the Indoor Intercom On and Off and Adjusting the Volume

Rotate VOLUME counterclockwise until it clicks. The POWER indicator lights. Then adjust VOLUME to the desired listening level. To turn off the indoor intercom, rotate VOLUME clockwise until it clicks. The POWER indicator turns off.
