4. Package Contents

• Byron 7960B Illuminated Wired Bell Push
• Mounting Screws
• Micro LED Bulb (for illumination)

5. Setup and Installation

5.1. Tools Required

• Screwdriver (appropriate for mounting screws)
• Drill (if new mounting holes are required)
• Wire Strippers
• Pencil

5.2. Wiring Instructions

1. Disconnect Power: Before starting, ensure the power to your existing doorbell system is turned off at the main electrical panel.
2. Remove Old Bell Push (if applicable): Carefully remove your old bell push, noting how the wires are connected.
3. Prepare Wires: Gently strip a small amount of insulation (approximately 1/4 inch) from the ends of the two low-voltage doorbell wires.
4. Connect Wires: Connect one doorbell wire to each of the two terminals on the back of the Byron 7960B bell push. Ensure connections are tight and secure.

5.3. Connecting the Illumination LED

The micro LED bulb for illumination needs to be connected manually. This process can be delicate:

1. Locate the two small wires extending from the micro LED bulb.
2. Carefully connect these LED wires to the same two terminals where the main doorbell wires are connected. The LED is typically non-polarised, so the orientation of its wires usually does not matter for basic function, but if it doesn't light up, try reversing the LED wire connections.
3. Ensure all four wire connections (two doorbell, two LED) are securely fastened to the two terminals on the bell push.

5.4. Mounting Instructions

1. Positioning: Hold the bell push in the desired mounting location. Use a pencil to mark the positions for the mounting screws.
2. Drill Pilot Holes: If necessary, drill small pilot holes at the marked positions.
3. Secure Bell Push: Feed the doorbell wires through the opening in the back of the bell push. Align the bell push with the pilot holes and secure it firmly to the surface using the provided mounting screws. Do not overtighten.
4. Restore Power: Once the bell push is securely mounted and all connections are made, restore power to the doorbell circuit at your main electrical panel.

6. Operation

After successful installation and power restoration, the LED in the bell push should illuminate, indicating it is ready for use. Press the button firmly to activate your doorbell chime. The bell push is designed for momentary contact, meaning the chime will sound only while the button is pressed.

7. Maintenance

• Cleaning: To maintain the brass finish, wipe the bell push regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or chemicals that could damage the finish.
• Inspection: Periodically check the mounting screws for tightness and the wiring for any signs of wear or damage.
• No user-serviceable parts are inside the sealed unit.
