Setup and Installation

Follow these steps to set up your AVANTEK Wireless Doorbell:

Peel off the other side and firmly press the transmitter onto the desired location (e.g., door frame or wall) for at least 30 seconds.
    • Solution B (Screws and Anchors): Use the provided screws and anchors for a more secure installation. Mark the desired drilling points, drill pilot holes, insert the anchors, and then screw the transmitter into place.

The AVANTEK Wireless Doorbell is designed for simple operation:

  • Adjusting Volume:

    There are 5 adjustable volume levels, with a maximum setting of 115 dB. Press the "Volume Control" button on the side of the receiver to increase or decrease the volume to your preference.

  • Pairing Transmitters (Custom Tones):

    You can set a different ring tone for each transmitter, allowing you to distinguish which doorbell has been rung (e.g., front door vs. back door). To do this:

    1. Select your desired melody on the receiver.
    2. Press and hold the "Volume Control" button on the receiver for approximately 5 seconds until the LED indicator flashes rapidly. This indicates pairing mode.
    3. Immediately press the button on the transmitter you wish to pair with this melody. The receiver will chime once to confirm successful pairing.
    4. Repeat for other transmitters with different melodies if desired.

  • Memory Function:

    The doorbell system is equipped with a memory function. In case of a power outage, your last selected melody and volume level will be remembered, and you will not need to reset them.

Maintenance

  • Battery Replacement (Transmitter):

    The transmitter uses a CR2032 lithium battery with an average lifespan of 3 years. When the transmitter's LED indicator no longer flashes or the range decreases significantly, it's time to replace the battery.

    1. Carefully open the transmitter casing using a small flat-head screwdriver or the provided tool by inserting it into the small notch on the side and gently prying it open.
    2. Locate the coin cell battery (CR2032).
    3. Gently pry out the old battery.
    4. Insert a new CR2032 battery with the positive (+) side facing up.
    5. Snap the transmitter casing back together securely.
  • Cleaning:

    Wipe the doorbell receiver and transmitter with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these may damage the finish or internal components. The transmitter is IP55 dustproof and waterproof, but avoid submerging it in water.
