5. Connect Wiring and Install Interior Unit: Connect the wire connector from the exterior unit to the wire connector port on the interior assembly. Carefully tuck excess wire into the door.
6. Secure the Interior Unit: Align the interior unit with the mounting plate and secure it with the remaining screws.
7. Install Batteries: Open the battery compartment on the interior unit. Insert 4 AA alkaline batteries (not included), ensuring correct polarity. Secure the battery box cover.
