PrimeChime Plus 2
Model: PRCP2
Product Description
The PrimeChime Plus 2 continues to define what a modern doorbell should be. The latest version offers Melody Selection with five different, user-selected, ring tones and five different volume levels using a simple single button, voice-guided, interface. The PRCP2 combines both line voltage and low voltage into a single unit and offers a paintable, screwless faceplate for simple installation and a seamless look. Separate, selectable, ring tones for front and rear doors allow users to keep track of exactly which door to answer. NICOR's lighted button makes the doorbell easily visible to visitors at all times of day, welcoming them to the home. Improved compatibility with most video doorbell buttons enhances security and peace of mind.

- 2) Set to mechanical doorbell setting.
- 3) Have battery fully charged before installation.
- 4) Make sure both chime firmware and App software are fully updated before installation.
