Detach the Existing Doorbell Button
If you already have existing doorbell wiring:
1. Remove the existing doorbell button with a Phillips-head screwdriver (not provided).
2. Pull the two wires out carefully when removing the existing doorbell. Straighten the wire ends if necessary.
Choose a Location
1. Take the video doorbell to your front door and check the live view in the app. Choose a location where you can see the desired
fi
eld of view. Consider the
following factors:
Check if you can reuse the existing holes and anchors in the wall or door frame.
If you want to place the doorbell near a side wall, make sure the wall isn't in the
fi
eld of view. Otherwise, the IR light will be re
fl
ected and the
night vision will be blurred.
If you are drilling the mounting holes for the
fi
rst time, the recommended height is 48" (1.2m) above the ground.
To adjust the angle, use the 15º mounting wedge as a supplementary mounting bracket.
