To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this equipment has a polarized
plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a polarized
outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse
the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install
the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.

Code and Tune Settings

Code Settings

Note: Most installations will not require you to change any jump­ers on your chime and push button.

WARNING: Disconnect chime unit from power source before open­ing code access door. Close door and replace screw before re­connecting to power.

The push button and chime communicate by using a code that can be
changed by removing and/or adding jumpers on both the push button
and chime. The code is factory set; however, there are 128 selectable
codes that allow you to expand your system and prevent outside in­terference. Other wireless products may cause interference and the
system may not function properly. Follow the instructions below for
setting a new code.

1. Unplug wireless chime.

2. Open the cases and locate jumpers on both the push button and
chime (See illustration on page 3).

3. The push button and chime both have eight different jumper loca­tions. The jumper positions 1 through 7 are used for setting the code.

4. To change the code, add and/or remove jumpers as needed. It is
recommended to only change one jumper at a time and then check
to see if system is functioning properly. Note: Jumpers in positions
1 through 7 must be exactly the same for both the push button and
chime for this system to function.

Tune Settings

Your Heath®/Zenith wireless chime has different selectable tunes: Ding
(one note), Ding-Dong (two note), or Westminster (eight note) (Avail-
able on selected Heath®/Zenith chimes). The factory setting is for the
Ding-Dong tune (or Westminster, when available). This tune can be
changed by following the instructions below.

• Ding (one note tune)

Push Button: Add a jumper to location 8.

• Ding-Dong (two note tune)

Push Button: Remove jumper from location 8.
Chime: Remove jumper from location 8.

• Westminster (Eight note tune) (Available on selected Heath®/Ze-

nith chimes)

Chime: Add a jumper to location 8.

Note: All models have both front and back door tune capabilities. You
may purchase any Heath®/Zenith wireless push button for a second
entrance. We recommend the back door use the Ding tune and the
front door use the Ding-Dong tune (or Westminster tune, available
on selected Heath®/Zenith chimes). Models that include two push but­tons will come factory set for front and back doors. Decals on the rear
of the push button will indicate its setting.

Troubleshooting

Chime does not sound:

• Make sure push button and chime codes are the same (See pages 2 and 3).

• Check orientation of push button battery (See page 3).

• Check push button battery charge, replace if necessary.

Batteries seem OK, but the chime does not work when installed:

• Do not mount chime or push button on metal or near metal studs. This reduces

the transmitter range. Use 1/4" to 1/2" (6 to 13 mm) wood shims to move chime
or push button off metal surface.

• Concrete floors may reduce range. Move chime away from floor.

•Try locating chime closer to push button.

The range of the wireless chime can vary with location, temperature and battery
condition.
