- Cleaning: Wipe the doorbell units with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Weather Protection: The transmitter has an IP55 dustproof and waterproof rating, designed to withstand various harsh weather conditions. It operates effectively between -4 °F to 140 °F (-20 °C to 60 °C). While it is waterproof, avoid submerging it in water.

6. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your doorbell, consider the following:
- No Sound from Receiver:
- Check if the receiver batteries are correctly inserted and not depleted. Replace if necessary.
- Ensure the volume is not set to mute (0 dB). Adjust the volume level.
- Verify that the transmitter and receiver are within the effective wireless range (up to 1000 feet / 300 meters). Obstacles like thick walls or metal structures can reduce range.
- Transmitter Button Not Responding:
- Check the CR2032 battery in the transmitter. Replace if needed.
- Ensure the transmitter is securely mounted and not damaged.
- Interference:
- While designed to minimize interference, try relocating the receiver or transmitter if you experience inconsistent performance, especially near other wireless devices.
