1. Remove the Transmitter from your mailbox door by removing the four screws.
2. Place the Transmitter down on a surface next to your Receiver so that the
battery is on the top side facing the ceiling.
3. Hold down the reset button on the Receiver until the lights goes out. It will
take about 8-9 seconds before the light goes out.
4. Release the reset button and immediately turn over the Transmitter while the
light is blinking so that the battery is facing down on the table.
5. You should hear 2 quick beeps.
6. Turn your Transmitter over to check if you get 4 beeps before mounting it
to your mailbox.

rattle when you tip it.
