Use the Arlo app for installation and setup
You must use the Arlo app to install and set up your Arlo Video
Doorbell. The Arlo app guides you through installation and setup:
1. Create your Arlo account.
You use the same account to manage all your Arlo devices.
2. Follow the instructions in the Arlo app to install and set up your
Arlo Video Doorbell.
Once you set up your Arlo account, you can access it by using the Arlo app on a
smartphone or tablet, or from a computer using a web browser. If you’re using a
computer, enter

Install the Power Kit in your chime box
The Power Kit ensures that your Arlo Video Doorbell receives consistent power. The
Power Kit is required for the Video Doorbell to function reliably and prevents your
chime from ringing when the Arlo Video Doorbell is recording or live-streaming.
Note:
If your chime box uses only batteries, it is not compatible with the Arlo Video
Doorbell. Before you install the Arlo Video Doorbell, consult an electrician to replace
your chime box with a wired doorbell and chime, with voltage between 16-24 VAC.
The Arlo app guides you through the process of installing the Power Kit in the chime
box for your existing doorbell. These are the main steps:
1. Turn off your power at the breaker.
Warning: Failure to turn off your power might result in serious injury.
2. Remove the cover of your chime box.
