9. Take the 2 short wires coming from the Control Panel
9.
and connect each one to a FloodStop Valve (make
sure the arrow on the side of the plugs line up with
each other). It does not matter which wire gets
connected to which FloodStop Valve.
NOTE: The Leak Sensor comes with a Paper Sleeve. If the
Leak Sensor is going to make contact with the washing
machine, or any other piece of metal, make sure you leave
the Paper Sleeve on. If the Leak Sensor makes contact
with metal, it will signal the FloodStop Valve to shut off. The
Paper Sleeve acts as a barrier between the Leak Sensor
and the metal. When the Paper Sleeve becomes wet, it will
signal the FloodStop Valve to shut off. If the Leak Sensor
will not be contacting metal, you may remove the Paper
Sleeve.

10. Connect plug on end of long flat wire coming from
Control Panel to either set of prongs on the Leak
Sensor, pushing until plug snaps in place.
Then
place Leak Sensor on the floor behind the washing
machine.
NOTE: Additional Leak Sensors can be connected together
for added protection. For additional Leak Sensors, pur-
chase FloodStop Water Leak Sensor, Model # XS-01 (avail-
able where you purchased your FloodStop System).
CAUTION: Do not place Leak Sensor or cord in a walkway,
or other location that may cause someone to trip and fall.
11.
11. Plug the pin on the end of AC Adaptor cord into the
bottom of the Control Panel, and then plug the AC
Adaptor into a wall outlet. Green indicator lights will start
to flash, showing you have power. Note that a red low
battery indicator light will also flash about every 30
seconds, and the unit will beep once a minute until the
batteries are installed.
NOTE: If a nearby wall outlet is not available you will need to
purchase a thin low voltage FloodStop "AC Adaptor
Extension Wire" Model # WAE-09 (available where you
purchased your FloodStop System). This wire extends the
length of the AC Adaptor cord.
CAUTION: Do not plug the AC Adaptor into an extension cord.
12.
12. FloodStop has a battery backup system that allows
the unit to continue working in the event that you have a
power outage. To set up the backup system, open the
front of the Control Panel and install 4 fresh AA alkaline
batteries (batteries not included). The low battery
indicator light will now stop flashing and the beep
will stop.
CAUTION: Replace batteries once a year or sooner as
necessary. If batteries need to be changed sooner, a red low
battery indicator light will flash, and a beep will sound.
How to Operate your Control Panel
1. Top button opens FloodStop Valve
2. Middle button closes FloodStop Valve
3. Bottom button mutes the audible alarm that
sounds when a leak is detected

Testing Your FloodStop System
FloodStop
1. Push the Open button to make sure
Valve is open.
• When the
FloodStop
Valve is opening or closing, you will hear the valve motor operating for a
few seconds.
2. Saturate a rag with water and squeeze over Leak Sensor, or dip the Leak Sensor into a small bucket of
water. Once the Leak Sensor is wet, it will signal the
FloodStop
Valve to close, then an audible alarm will
sound and a red light will flash.
• Push the Mute button to silence the alarm, and note that
the red light will continue to flash. This means
the
FloodStop
Valve is closed, and will remain closed until you push the Open button.
• Before the
FloodStop
Valve can be opened, the Leak Sensor needs to be dry. There is no need to
unplug the unit when drying off the Leak Sensor.
• The water test can be done with the paper sleeve still on
the Leak Sensor. Note that the paper sleeve is
reusable, but once it gets wet you will need to let it air dry flat before placing it back on the Leak Sensor.
Helpful Hints
• If the Leak Sensor Paper Sleeve is misplaced or becomes unusable, a paper towel can be used
in its place.
• The Leak Sensor has two sets of prongs so you can connect additional Leak Sensors. You can
link them together so they are positioned at different locations around your laundry area.
• Once a month, the FloodStop Valves will automatically close and open by themselves. The
Control Panel is programmed to run this cycle to ensure that the valves continue to function
properly in the event that they need to shut off the water.
• Hanging Wires may be tied together using twist ties (Not provided).

Manual Operation of FloodStop Valve
1. Unplug the connection between the Control Panel and the FloodStop Valve.
2. Pull the plastic motor cover off the FloodStop Valve and slide it down the wire until it stops at the
plug. Note that no tools are needed to remove the cover.
3. Use a marker and draw a line across the top of the plastic motor housing. This way once the motor
is removed you will know how to reposition it for assembly.
4. Remove the 4 screws using a Phillips head screwdriver.
5. Place thumb and finger on plastic gear and rotate clockwise to open valve or counter clockwise to
close it. Do not use tools to manually open or close valve.
