Zircon Leak Alert + LED! - Electronic Water Detector Manual

Undetected water can cause thousands of dollars in damage. Protect your home from potential water damage by keeping a Leak Alert^™+ LED! water detector anywhere flooding is a potential danger—near aquariums, sump pumps, plumbing, washing machines, water heaters, toilets, basements, and garages.

Insert a coin between top and bottom halves of case. Turn coin to separate.
INSTALLING THE BATTERY - Step 1

FLOODING

HELPFUL HINTS

Situation	Probable Cause	Solutions
False alarm sounds.	Battery voltage is low. Water detector is on a conductive surface (i.e. metal). Ambient moisture has collected on metal contacts.	Change the battery. Place a piece of thin paper or plastic between water detector and metal surface. Wipe metal contacts dry.
Detector does not sound alarm even when touching water.	Metal contacts are up, not touching surface with water. Battery is dead.	Make sure metal contacts are flat on surface where water is to be detected. Replace battery.
Detector does not float.	Battery is not placed in correct area of case.	Place detector in face-up position, open battery compartment, and position battery per diagram.
