locations. Contains small parts; keep away from children.
3.2
Optimally placing the product
Recessed Door Sensor 7 has been designed to be installed within a door and its surrounding frame. To optimally install
it, please note the following.
Recessed Door Sensor 7 must be installed so that its two parts separate when the door it is installed within is opened.
Typically, the larger part is installed in the door itself, while the smaller part is installed in the surrounding frame. This is
not mandatory, however, and the installation can be reversed provided the drill hole instructions are suitably adapted.
As a magnetic sensor utilising wireless communication, Recessed Door Sensor 7 may not optimally work when mounted
on a metal frame or close to metal objects such as door locks. Test accordingly before mounting Recessed Door Sensor
7 with adhesive tape or screws.
To be installed, Recessed Door Sensor 7 requires a minimum spacing of around 1mm / 0.04inch between the door and
its frame when closed. The gap should be no larger than 12mm / 0.47inch.
When the door is closed and the sensor's two parts are installed, they should align.
Owing to both the magnet and the Z-Wave Plus antenna housed with Recessed Door Sensor 7, the two highlighted
areas in this diagram are generally considered optimal.
