Install steps:
. Connect
When the app prompts you, pull out the battery
tab to power it on.

(Main Door, Secondary Door, or Window), give
it a unique name describing the location, and
assign it to a room.
Door and Window Settings
If you’re using the Contact Sensor on a door,
remember to choose Main Door or Secondary
Door.
Main doors have Entry and Exit Delays to help
prevent false alarms.
For more on Entry and Exit Delays, see page 21.
Contact Sensors
These can be installed on any door or window. It
doesn’t matter which direction or orientation you
install them, as long as the Sensor and magnet line
up and are no more than " apart.
We recommend installing Contact Sensors on
every door and window that oers easy access to
your home, such as first floor windows, or second
floor windows near obstacles an intruder can climb.
TIP
If you have multiple Contact Sensors to add
to your Ring Alarm, remember to connect,
configure, and install them one at a time.
. Install
Choose where you’d like to install your Sensor
and magnet. Line them up with no more than "
between them (see image).
If installing it on a door, choose a side without
hinges (see image).
Peel the backing from the attached tape and
press the Sensor and magnet into place.
"Tampering" a Sensor
When you slide the battery cover o of a
Sensor to change the batteries, it will show as
“tampered” in the Ring app. It will return to
normal once you slide the cover back on.
If you need to arm your Alarm while a Sensor is
in this "tampered" state, you will be prompted to
bypass it to continue arming.
