Place or mount 5.9 ft. (1.8 m) above the ground, in a
wide space without obstructions
Open/Close
Any position
Match up the alignment marks on the Sensor and
Magnet, without exceeding the recommend gap distance
of 0.5 in. (12 mm). The Magnet can be placed on either
side of the Sensor
Open/Close Tilt
(Install without
Magnet)
Vertical or horizontal position

Place at the top of a door or window where tilt first
occurs when opening
Water Leak
Lay flat in a horizontal position
Place near or under a water heater, fridge, toilet, sink
or any other water appliance inside your home, such
that any leak would puddle and spread underneath the
Sensor contacting both probe pins at the same time. You
should not place where water will drop directly on
top of the Sensor
