Valve Open
1. Push the power button on L5 WiFi Water Leak Shutoff
Valve, or tap the open command in the app's menu.
2. The valve opening process is initiated. The status LED
is pulsing green.
3. The valve is open. The status LED is solid green.
EMERGENCY BALL VALVE CLOSE /
OPEN
The handle on the L5 actuator is intended to be used for
emergencies only. For example, during a power outage.
Please follow the steps below if you need to use the
emergency handle:
1. Unplug the L5 WiFi Water Leak Shutoff Valve from the
power supply.
2. Push on the lever until it touches the actuator's top
cover. You should feel minimum resistance. This step
is important to allow the handle to be detached from
the gearbox.
3. While pushing down the handle, turn the lever clock-
wise to close the ball valve. You may feel some resis-
tance just like when you are closing a regular ball valve.
4. To open the valve, push down the handle while turning
it counterclockwise. You may feel some resistance just
like when you are opening a regular brass ball valve.
IMPORTANT
Since the handle is intended to be used in emergen-
cies only, when using the emergency handle to close
the valve, the valve status change does not synchro-
nize with the app.
PAIR L5 WITH WATER SENSOR(S)
L5 works with both Resideo's new L1 and the original WiFi
Water Leak and Freeze Detector. The detector(s) and L5 need
to be set up in the same location in the app in order for the
devices to be paired with each other.
You can choose which specific detector(s) you want to
enable L5's automatic shutoff function. You can change the
setting at any time under "LEAK PROTECTION". This can be
found on the bottom of L5's home page in the app, or as a
first time user, you will be taken through the setup of this
function automatically.

MAINTENANCE CYCLE
This function can be found under "Settings" or you will
automatically be taken through the setup process as a first
time user. It's designed to close, then immediately open your
L5 valve regularly to prevent the valve gets stuck. We
recommend you set the maintenance cycle to take place at
least every 2 months.
IMPORTANT
— To prevent unintended water supply, the valve main-
tenance cycle will not perform when the valve is in
the closed position.
— If you are considering having the valve permanently
closed, manually open, then close the valve at least
every 2 months.
SYNCHRONIZE THE VALVE
POSITION WITH APP STATUS
If for any reason, the valve's position does not match the
valve's status in the app, take the following steps to
synchronize the valve with the app's status.
1. Unplug the actuator from the power supply.
2. Plug back in the power supply. Once the L5 Actuator is
powered back up, it will operate the valve to the last
known position. Wait a few minutes until the status
LED is either solid red or solid green.
3. Now you should be able to see the valve status in the
app is aligned with the actual valve status.
