Step 2: Installing the Door/Window Sensors
Attach both parts of the door sensor to the desired door or window frame using the provided double-sided adhesive tape or screws. Ensure the two parts are aligned and are less than 0.6 inches (1.5 cm) apart when the door/window is closed. The sensor has an "ON/OFF" switch; ensure it is set to "ON" for operation.

Operating Instructions
Pairing Sensors and Selecting Chimes
The sensors and receiver are typically pre-paired from the factory. If re-pairing is needed or to add new sensors:
- Press the "forward" or "backward" button on the receiver to choose your desired melody.
- Long press the volume button for 5-7 seconds until the receiver emits a "ding" sound and the LED blinks rapidly.
- Quickly separate the two parts of the door sensor to activate the transmitter and send a signal to the receiver.
- After successful pairing, when the sensor is moved (door/window opens), the receiver will sound to alert you.

Adjusting Volume and Chime Selection
The receiver offers 20 different ringtones and 5 adjustable volume levels, ranging from 0 dB (mute) to 110 dB. Use the volume buttons on the side of the receiver to cycle through the volume levels. Use the forward/backward buttons to select different chimes.

Maintenance
Battery Replacement (Sensor)
The door sensors are powered by a CR2450 lithium battery. When the sensor's performance degrades or it stops transmitting signals, it may be time to replace the battery. Use a small screwdriver to open the sensor casing, replace the CR2450 battery, and then reassemble.

Environmental Considerations
The sensors are designed to withstand various weather conditions with an IP44 waterproof rating, ensuring performance in rain, snow, or shine. They operate effectively in temperatures ranging from -4°F (-20°C) to 140°F (60°C).
