like an additional door chime or an extra call button (floor
bell).
You can either install individually one of the above
mentioned accessories or both at the same time.
The floor bell button connection option gives you the
freedom of choice to place an additional doorbell button
wherever you want. E. g. directly in front of your door or,
at a back entrance, etc..
The option for adding an electronical door chime
(speaker) allows you to place an external door (chime
besides the one built in the indoor unit. In case the built
in indoors unit's door chime is not loud enough or too far
