PAIRING INSTRUCTIONS

• Follow your system’s instructions to prepare to add devices to the
system.

• Remove the Face Plate from the sensor by turning the Face Plate
counter-clockwise and pull the battery tab to start the pairing
process.

• When the sensor is detected and added to the system, replace the
Face Plate by aligning the dots and turning the Face Plate clockwise.

• Make sure the dots are fully aligned for a proper seal, then proceed
to the sensor installation.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

• Identify a level surface for the sensor, where water will likely
accumulate in the event of a leak. If the sensor is too wide for
placement at the desired location, the stand can be used for a
narrower profile.

For tighter
locations or
locations with
radio problems,
use the
included
Sensor Cable.

INSTALLING THE SENSOR CABLE (OPTIONAL)

• To install the Sensor Cable, first run the cable to the desired location,
and fasten the winged end of the Sensor Cable into place. Note that
the tips are angled to improve the sensing ability when the tips are
near a surface.

• Insert the square end of the Sensor Cable into the terminals on the
stand.

• Screw down both terminals until the cable is firmly held in place

• Mount the Stand to the wall or other surface using the supplied

double-sided adhesive pad or screws.

• Insert the Water Leak Sensor into the stand to begin operation.

TESTING THE SENSOR

• To test the sensor, remove it from the stand or floor

• Insert the sensor into the stand 90 degrees from upright in either

direction to short the contacts on the sensor.

• The sensor will send a message to the connected home system
indicating a water leak. The LED will not light up to preserve battery
life.

REPLACING THE BATTERY

(Use only Panasonic CR2 3V lithium battery)

• Grasp the top of the sensor Face Plate, rotate counter-clockwise
and lift from the sensor Body.

• Grasp the battery from both ends and lift to remove the battery
from the sensor.

• Insert a new battery into the sensor, observing the proper polarity.

• Position the sensor Face Plate over the Sensor Body, aligning the

dots on the Face Plate and Body, then rotate clockwise to align the
dots again to close.
