GE 19297 - Wireless Doorbell Installation Manual

Installation

Required Tools:
Small flat blade screwdriver, #2 Phillips Screwdriver, and 1/16" and 3/32" drill bit (not included).

The wireless doorbell kit has two components:

Installing battery in push button (transmitter)

1. Remove the front cover of the push button housing by pushing a flat blade screwdriver into the slot at the bottom of the push button housing (See Figure 1).
2. Install the CR2032 battery (included) with the positive (+) side up.
3. Keep the front cover off the push button until melody selection is complete.

NOTE: The doorbell and push button(s) have been electronically paired during production. Once the battery is installed in the push button and doorbell receiver, press the push button(s) to ensure that the push button(s) cause the doorbell to operate.
IF doorbell DOES NOT SOUND, SEE TROUBLESHOOTING.

Melody Selection Setting (your doorbell will have either 2 or 8 melodies)
Select the melody by pushing the Melody Selection Button located inside the push button housing (See Figure 1). Press and release the melody selection button until you hear the desired melody. Tables 1 and 2 show the order the melodies will be heard.

The last melody played will be your selected doorbell melody.

Volume Adjustment

There are four volume settings on this doorbell.

1. To adjust the volume, press and release the pairing button on the doorbell or press the push button to play the melody.
2. While melody is playing, press and release the volume button on the doorbell to select the desired sound level.

Push button (transmitter) mounting instructions

NOTE: Avoid mounting on metal surfaces, as it may result in a reduced range of transmission. Do not mount in an area exposed to direct rain. Push buttons are typically mounted at the same height as the door knob or handle (between 36" and 44" above the floor).

Permanent push button (transmitter) mounting instructions

1. Remove the front cover of the push button (See Figure 1).
2. Before mounting, choose a mounting location that is no further than 150 feet from the doorbell unit location. Place the push button where you would like to mount and test with the doorbell as close to its final location as possible. If it works, continue with mounting the button. If it does not work, see TROUBLESHOOTING.
3. Hold the back plate of the push button in the selected location with the arrow on the back of the back plate pointing up.
4. Using the 1/16" drill bit, drill a hole through the back plate of the push button (See Figure 3 — Mounting hole locations) and into the surface of the selected location.
   
5. Secure with the two screws provided.
6. Press front housing onto back cover.
7. Test operation. If doorbell does not work, see TROUBLESHOOTING.

Temporary push button (transmitter) mounting instructions

1. Clean the mounting location for the push button with a mixture of 50% water and 50% isopropyl alcohol.
2. Remove protective backing from one side of the adhesive pad and attach it to the back plate of the push button.
3. Remove protective backing from the other side of the adhesive pad and press the back plate to the cleaned mounting location. Hold in place for a few seconds to allow for a secure bond.

Doorbell (receiver) mounting instructions

NOTE: Avoid mounting on metal surfaces, as it may result in a reduced range of reception.

1. Select doorbell mounting location.
2. Using the doorbell mounting template on the package, insert card and drill two holes with 3/32" drill bit in marked keyhole slot locations (See Figure 2).
3. Insert the two included 3x25mm screws into the holes, with the screw heads extending about ¼" from mounting surface.
4. Place the doorbell unit's keyhole slots over the screws and press down on the doorbell unit to secure it.

Troubleshooting

If the doorbell does not work:

1. Make sure push button switch is pressed down and held for at least 1 second.
2. Verify battery installation is correct, noting polarity.
3. Try a fresh battery in push button.
4. Make sure doorbell is no further than 150 feet away from push button.
5. Ensure push button is not mounted on metal, near metal studs or near the floor.
6. Try a new location for the doorbell.
7. If the doorbell and push button(s) do not operate, repeat the electronic pairing process of the push button(s) to the doorbell in steps A-F below:
   1. To clear settings: press and hold the pairing button on the bottom of the doorbell while installing the third battery.
   2. Once the last battery is installed, release the pairing button.
   3. Press and hold the pairing button again. You will hear the "Dingdong" melody twice, and then the double beep to alert you the doorbell is ready to pair with the push button. Release the pairing button.
   4. Press and release the push button (See Figure 4). You will hear one beep letting you know the doorbell accepted the signal.
      
   5. Wait 10 seconds and you will hear the double beep again to alert you the doorbell is now paired with the push button.
   6. Press the push button to test.
