AC lrequency.
. If you want to use a station to communicate with only one of the other stations. set only those stations to
the same AC frequencyl.

Installing the Doorbell’s Batteries
Your doorbell unit uses four AA batteries (not supplied) for power. For the best performance and longest life,
we recommend RadioShack alkaline batteries.
Cautions:
- Use only fresh batteries of the required size and recommended type.
0 Do not mix old and new batteries, different types of batteries (standard, alkaline. or rechargeable), or
rechargeable batteries or different capacities.
1. Use a Philip screwdriver to loosen the screw in the doorbell unit’s battery compartment cover, then lift
the cover off.
2. Insert four AA batteries into the compartment as indicated by the polarity symbols (+ and -) marked
inside.
3. Replace the cover and tighten the screw.
When the battery level is low the unit will send alert tone to Indoor unit automatically. The POWER Indicator
on the indoor unit flashes. If no button is pressed before replacing new batteries the indoor unit will beep
sounds every 1 minute. All other functions will be disabled until the batteries are replaced and reset the
device. Replace the batteries at this time.
The indoor unit can distinguish between two doorbell units by its tone switch setting. If both door bell units
are battery low. the POWER indicator flashes as usual and reminder beep will be generated it no key is
pressed. However, the POWER Indicator will return to normal only when both doorbelis' batteries are
replaced.
Warning: Dispose of old batteries promptly and properly. Do not burn or bury them.
Caution: If you do not plan to use the door chime for a two-week period, remove the batteries. Batteries can
leak chemicals that can destroy electronic parts.
