Is professional installation required?

Troubleshooting
Chime does not sound when bell push is pressed.
Check that mains power is correctly supplied to the chime unit. Ensure the bell wire connection between the chime and the bell push is secure and intact. Verify that the bell push is not an illuminated type, which is incompatible.
Chime sounds weak or intermittent.
Inspect all wiring connections for security and corrosion. Ensure the bell wire run is not excessively long, which could affect signal strength. Confirm that the mains power supply is stable.
Chime sounds constantly.
This indicates a possible short circuit or a faulty bell push. Carefully inspect the wiring for any damage or incorrect connections. If the issue persists, the bell push may need replacement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This chime requires mains power to be wired directly to the chime unit's location. A bell wire must then be run from the chime unit to the bell push. Please note: Cables are not included and must be sourced separately. Professional installation is recommended for mains wiring. Ensure the power is switched off at the mains before commencing any wiring.
Compatibility: This chime is not suitable for use with illuminated bell pushes. It is designed for use with standard, non-illuminated bell push buttons.
Care: To clean the chime, disconnect the power supply and wipe the unit with a slightly damp, soft cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the casing.
