Troubleshooting

Two ‘beep’ sounds are heard and the LED flashes twice after the normal chime sound… This indicates a low battery in the chime. Install new batteries, type LR14 C size alkaline batteries. Three ‘beep’ sounds are heard and the LED flashes three times after the normal chime sound… This indicates a low battery in the bell push that activated the chime. Install a new battery, type CR2032. nWhen the bell push is operated, the red confidence light does not turn on, or is only on for a short time… Low battery. Install a new battery, type CR2032. The chime does not work…

  • Check that the batteries are the correct type. Only use alkaline batteries for the chime.
  • Check that the batteries are fitted correctly (no wrong polarity).
  • Check that battery are not loose.
  • The chime could be out of range of the bell push. Try the chime in a different location.
  • The chime might not have learned the identity of the bell push. Follow the programming procedure in step 3.

Note: Do not press the program button for more than 15 seconds, this will delete all the memory! Repeat the programming procedure in step 3 to restore operation.

The chime does not sound…

  • Check the chime switch position.
  • Check that the volume control is not at the minimum setting.

The chime does not play tune selected…
Chime might not have learned the tune selected. Follow the programming sequence as in step 3.
The range is reduced…

  • Metal structures, including uPVC door frames can reduce the range of the product. Avoid mounting the push or chime on or near metal structures.
  • Other equipment can cause radio interference that affects your chime.
  • Walls and ceilings will reduce the range.
  •  Weak batteries will reduce range. Replace every 12–18 months. In cold conditions, (below 41°F/5ºC), batteries may need to be replaced more often.
