Preparation

5

Step 1

Step 2

To prepare for installation:

Before beginning setup, there are some essential preparations to make.

TURN OFF THE POWER RUNNING TO

YOUR EXISTING DOORBELL AND CHIME

BOX AT THE BREAKER (See Figure 1).

Test that power has been disconnected for

both the doorbell and chime box power by

pressing the doorbell. There should be no

chime sound.

Always be careful when handling electrical

wiring. If you’re not comfortable doing it

yourself, then consult a licensed electrician.

Remove your existing doorbell and

disconnect wiring (see Figure 2). Make sure

to bend the power cables so they do not fall

through the hole in the wall.

IMPORTANT: 16-24 VAC is required. If your house does not have this voltage, you will

need a 16-24 VAC doorbell transformer or you can consult with a licensed electrician.

Wiring the chime

6

You must determine the type of doorbell chime you have in your home: electronic or mechanical.

Not sure? If your doorbell chime is a classic *ding-dong* sound, chances are your chime is mechanical.

If your doorbell sounds more like a melody, then your chime is electronic. If you are still not sure, remove

the cover panel of your chime box - if you nd springloaded levers and a physical metal chime, you have a

mechanical chime.

For users with a mechanical chime, follow the extra step below to complete the installation.

1. Remove the cover panel of your doorbell

chime box.

2. Loosen the screws labeled FRONT and

TRANS using a Philips head screwdriver. Do

not remove the screws, and be sure to detach

any connected wiring (see Figure 1).

3. Connect the included chime kit to the green

terminal on the end of the included wire

harness (see Figure 2).

For mechanical chime owners:

Figure 1

Figure 2

B451AJ_QSG_EN_R1.indd 9 2020-11-03 11:42:46 AM2020-11-03 11:42:46 AM

Note: You may connect either

wire to either connector.

4. Connect the wiring from the chime kit to

the FRONT and TRANS connectors in

the chime box. Ensure that the existing

wiring stays connected as well (see

Figure 3).

5. Mount the chime kit to the inside of your

chime box, or along the cover plate of the

chime box, using the included

double-sided tape (see Figure 4).

IMPORTANT: Use the included

double-sided tape to ensure the chime kit

and wires are not touching the chimes

or any moving components inside the

chime box, or the doorbell chime will not

sound correctly.

Secure the mounting bracket(s)

7

Use the mounting accessories specied below depending on the mounting location.

Place the mounting bracket to t your

existing doorbell wiring. Then mark the

screw holes according to the mounting

bracket.

IMPORTANT: Ensure that the

arrow on the mounting bracket is always

pointing up.

Step 1: Mark mounting holes

B451AJ_QSG_EN_R1.indd 11 2020-11-03 11:42:50 AM2020-11-03 11:42:50 AM

1. Select either the horizontal or vertical bracket according to the direction you want your doorbell to

face (see Figures 2&3).

2. To change the direction of the angle, simply ip the horizontal or vertical bracket upside down.

Whichever direction you choose, make sure the attached mounting bracket is always facing .

15° right

5° down

15° left

5° up

If you want to change the angle of the doorbell for a better view, attach one of the optional angled

brackets to the mounting bracket.

Step 2 (Optional): Attach an angled bracket to the mounting bracket

Option 1: Horizontal bracket

Figure 2 (bottom view)

Option 2: Vertical bracket

OR

B451AJ_QSG_EN_R1.indd 12 2020-11-03 11:42:54 AM2020-11-03 11:42:54 AM

3. Insert the four tabs from the horizontal

or vertical bracket into the the mounting

bracket as shown in Figure 4. Make sure to

insert in the desired direction.

4. Press the mounting bracket down. A *click*

sound will indicate that the brackets are

locked in.

Figure 4

Notes:

• You can only attach one angled

bracket to the mounting bracket.

• If you would like to change the

direction of the angled bracket

after attaching it to the mounting

bracket, gently but rmly pull

them apart.

B451AJ_QSG_EN_R1.indd 13 2020-11-03 11:42:55 AM2020-11-03 11:42:55 AM

When installing only the mounting bracket, refer to Figure 5-a. When installing the angled bracket

attached to the mounting bracket, refer to Figure 5-b.

1. For wood, drywall or soft surfaces:

Secure the mounting bracket(s)

to the mounting surface using a

Philips-head screwdriver and the

supplied mounting screws.

2. For concrete, stucco or brick:

Use the supplied 15/64” drillbit to

drill holes where marked. Use the

supplied anchors and screws to

secure the mounting bracket(s) to

the wall.

Step 3: Secure the mounting bracket

Figure 5-a

B451AJ_QSG_EN_R1.indd 14 2020-11-03 11:42:57 AM2020-11-03 11:42:57 AM

Notes:

• Ensure that the arrow on the

mounting bracket is always pointing

up.

• The (optional) angled bracket must

be attached to the mounting bracket

before installation.

• Ensure the power cables from the

wall t comfortably through the hole

in the mounting bracket.

To wire the doorbell:

1. Loosen the power port screws of the

doorbell with a Philips-head screwdriver.

Figure 2

Figure 1

2. Loop the power wires underneath the

power port screws (see Figure 1).

3. Tighten the power port screws to secure

the power wires (see Figure 2).

Note: Do not fully remove the

power port screws.

B451AJ_QSG_EN_R1.indd 16 2020-11-03 11:43:00 AM2020-11-03 11:43:00 AM

To extend short wires (optional):

1. If your existing doorbell wiring is too short,

remove the power port screws completely, then

thread the screws through the supplied extra

wires. Use the supplied wire caps to extend your

wiring (see Figure 3).

2. To attach the wire cap, align the ends of your

existing wiring and extra wires, place the wire

cap over the exposed wiring and twist the wire

nut clockwise to tighten (see Figure 4). Pull on

the wires slightly to make sure that they are

properly fastened inside the wire cap.

3. Ensure there is enough space to t the cable

connectors and wire caps into the hole in your

wall.

3. Press the doorbell downwards. A *click* sound will indicate that it is locked in.

1. Insert the supplied pin into the hole at the

bottom of the mounting bracket until the

inner buckle is reached (see Figure 2).

2. Then slide the doorbell up and remove it.
