Two-Note Door Chime

MODEL: LB-18, LB-76 SERIES

Designed for two-door operation.
Model LB-76 is designed to be used with a NuTone

Radio-Intercom system.

WIRING CAUTIONS: Before installing the transformer

and chime, turn off the house power and leave it off until
installation is complete.

Carefully fasten wiring to wall studs and ceiling joists

– avoid short circuits caused by staples or clips cutting
through the wiring's insulation. When drilling into walls,
be careful not to damage existing electrical cables.

All wiring must comply with local codes or the

National Electrical Code. If you are unfamiliar with
electrical wiring installation methods, secure the
services of a qualified electrician.

is included with Model LB-76 Door Chime.
