HOW THE SYSTEM WORKS
Works Independently
This video doorbell can work independently once it is connected to your home wireless router. Additionally, you have a
variety of options to receive notifications and hear a ring when someone presses your video doorbell.
Use a traditional doorbell chime (if you have one).
Use a eufy Security doorbell chime (sold separately).
Use an Amazon Alexa Echo Show device.
Works with eufy Security HomeBase (Optional)
The video doorbell detects motion at your porch and lets you to answer the door anytime, anywhere. You can store video
clips in the built-in storage of your eufy Security HomeBase 2 or S380 HomeBase (sold separately). When someone rings
the doorbell, people in the house will be notified.

CHARGING THE BATTERY PACK
1. Remove the pre-installed battery pack from the battery compartment.
2. Fully charge the rechargeable battery pack before installation.
3. Place the battery pack into the battery compartment.
SETTING UP THE SYSTEM
1. Download and install the eufy Security app, then sign in or create an account.
2. Follow the in-app instructions to add the video doorbell.
DETERMINING THE POWER OPTION
Option 1: Battery Powered
If you don't have existing doorbell wiring at your front door, use the included battery. You are free to determine the location
of the doorbell, and the mounting will be easy and quick.
When the battery is low, you will need to recharge it. Battery life varies with use. If you choose this option, please skip to
DOORBELL MOUNTING (Battery Powered).
Option 2: Wire Powered
If you have existing and working doorbell wires at your front door, the video doorbell will be constantly powered by these
wires. So there's no need to detach and recharge after installation.
The mounting position is limited. If you choose this option, please skip to DOORBELL MOUNTING (Wire Powered).

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 field 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 field of view. Otherwise, the IR light will
be reflected and the night vision will be blurred.
• If you are drilling the mounting holes for the first time, the recommended height is 48" (1.2m) above the ground.
• To adjust the angle, use the 15
º
mounting wedge as a supplementary mounting bracket.

2. Place the screw hole positioning card against the wall to mark the location. If mounting on a hard wall (brick, concrete, or
stucco), use a 15/64" (5.95mm) drill bit to drill 2 holes through the screw hole positioning card.
