Charge Battery: Charge the included battery using a micro USB cable and a power adapter (not included). The indicator light will be red while charging and turn white when fully charged.
Remove Protective Cover: Press down on the face of the doorbell with your thumbs and pull the outer protective cover up and away from the main body.
Insert Battery: Push the charged battery into the battery compartment, ensuring the pins face up. To remove the battery, push the tab and pull the battery straight down.
Pairing with App:
- Download and sign in to the Kami Home / YI Home App.
- Ensure your phone is connected to a 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network and "Location" services are enabled and authorized for the app.
- Tap "+" in the app, select "Kami Doorbell Camera," and wait for the "Waiting to connect" voice prompt.
- Enter your Wi-Fi password.
- Point the QR code displayed on your phone's screen towards the camera lens until you hear "QR code scan is successful connecting to Wi-Fi" and "Wi-Fi is connected."
- Assign a name to your doorbell in the app.
Installation Options (Optional):
- Remove Original Doorbell: If replacing an existing doorbell, switch off power, remove the old doorbell, and disconnect wires.
- Electronic Doorbell Setup (Diode Installation): If connecting to an electronic bell (digital chime with a speaker), install the included diode. Do NOT install a diode if using a mechanical indoor doorbell, as it will cause damage.
- Mechanical Doorbell Setup (Chime Connector Installation): If using a mechanical chime, install the chime connector to ensure a stable power supply. If you don't want the chime to make a sound, connect the wires as shown in the diagram for connection method-2. Always ensure power to the doorbell is shut down before wiring.
Fixing the Backplate:
- Choose the appropriate backplate (Flat, Horizontal Angle, or Vertical Angle) based on your desired camera angle.
- Place the backplate flat on the wall where the doorbell will be installed.
- Use a pen to mark the wall through the two holes in the back panel. Screw anchors are not required for wood installations.
Connecting Wires (Optional): Connect each of the existing doorbell wires to either of the screws in the back of the doorbell. The order does not matter. If wires are too short, use the included extension wires and wire nuts. Ensure power is shut down before wiring.
Mount the Doorbell:
- Flat Backplate: Feed all wires (and wire nuts, if used) into the wall. Use four Screw C (fine threads) to secure the doorbell to the Flat Backplate #1.
- Angled Backplate: Use Screw B (coarse threads) to secure the doorbell to Angled Backplate #2 or #3.
Install Front Panel:
- Use Screw A (tapered head Torx) to keep the doorbell front panel in place.

Turn Power On: Switch the circuit breaker for the doorbell back to ON and test the doorbell's operation.
