3. Do not install the sensor on rough and uneven surfaces such as wall coverings, so that the adhesive will not come off.
4. Do not put the senor towards hot objects such as electrical appliances when installing to avoid false triggering caused by infrared interference.

If a pet enters the detection area of the Aqara Motion Sensor P1, will it trigger the sensor?

Yes. If you do not want a pet to trigger the sensor. Please refer to the detection diagram in the quick start guide and place the motion sensor P1 in a higher location. This way, a pet will not trigger the sensor when it moves on the floor. (Please refer to the quick start guide regarding the installation options).

Why does the device report motion detected when no one is passing?

1. There may be some objects with heat in the detection area of the Motion Sensor P1, which interfere with infrared detection.
2. Hot and cold air flow with a large temperature difference may appear in the detection area of the Motion Sensor P1.

How to identify if the Aqara Motion Sensor P1 works properly?

Click the reset button of the Motion Sensor P1. If the Hub makes voice prompts, "Normal link confirmed", it indicates that the Hub and the Motion Sensor communicates properly; If there is no voice prompt, please move the sensor closer to the Hub and try again. If there is still no voice prompt, the sensor might be deleted or it might run out of battery. Please refer to the accessory adding methods to add the accessory or replace the battery.

Under what conditions does the Aqara Motion Sensor P1 go offline frequently?

Possible reasons:
1. The accessory is too far away from the Hub, please try to install the accessory closer to the Hub.
2. Low battery or dead battery. Please replace the battery.
3. The accessory is installed on the metal surface and the signal is interfered. Please avoid metal surface.

How can we use the "Detection Interval"?

The "Detection Interval" is to set the shortest time interval from the previous time of "motion detected" to the next one. For example, the default interval is 10 seconds, then after the motion is detected, no other motion will be detected within 10 seconds.

Why does my Aqara Motion Sensor P1 not respond but the light flashes normally when I press the reset button is pressed?

Possible causes:
1. PIR probe or lens has been damaged;
2. The device is in the trigger interval;
3. The device is offline, please confirm whether the device and the hub are connected properly.
