5.1 Important Requirement: Maxcio Tuya Zigbee Gateway
The Maxcio Water Leak Sensor requires a Maxcio Tuya Zigbee Gateway (sold separately) to function and send app notifications. Ensure your gateway is connected to a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network (5 GHz is not supported). One gateway can connect up to 22 devices.

6.1 Water Leak Detection
When the sensor's probes detect water at a level of 0.5mm or higher, it will trigger an alarm. The sensor's LED will flash red, and it will send a signal to the connected Zigbee Gateway.

6.2 App iwifunni
Upon detection, the Zigbee Gateway will forward the alert to your Maxcio SmartLife app, providing real-time notifications to your smartphone. This allows you to monitor your home for leaks remotely.

6.3 Automation Home
You can configure automation rules within the Maxcio SmartLife app to link the water leak sensor with other Tuya-compatible smart devices. For example, if a leak is detected near a washing machine, a smart plug connected to the washing machine can be automatically switched off.

7. Itọju
7.1 Batiri Rirọpo
The sensor uses a CR2032 battery. When the battery is low, you will receive a low battery notification in the Maxcio SmartLife app. Replace the battery by following the steps in Section 5.2.
7.2 Ninu
Wipe the sensor with a dry, soft cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or immerse the entire device in water (only the probes are designed for water contact).
7.3 Connectivity Check
Periodically check the sensor's status in the Maxcio SmartLife app to ensure it is online and communicating with the gateway.
