4.2 Mounting the Alarm

Clean the desired installation surface (door, window frame, cabinet) thoroughly to ensure it is free of dust and grease. Allow it to dry completely.
Peel off the protective film from the adhesive pads on the back of both the main alarm unit and the magnetic strip.
Attach the main alarm unit to the fixed part of the door/window frame.
Attach the magnetic strip to the moving part of the door/window, aligning the arrows on both components.
Ensure the gap between the main alarm unit and the magnetic strip is less than 2 cm (0.78 inches) when the door/window is closed. A larger gap may prevent proper function.
