Cool Down Mode and Level Lock hardware

If you’re a Level Lock owner and your compatible Ring Wired Doorbell Pro or Floodlight Cam Wired Pro enters Cool Down Mode, Amazon Sidewalk network may be turned off temporarily. As a result, your Level Lock may appear offline in the Ring app.

If your Level Lock does appear offline in the Ring app due to overheating, simply wait until your Ring device returns to a normal operating temperature to access and control your lock through the Ring app.

The lock itself remains fully operational during this time, and you can use the Level app to lock or unlock it if you're within Bluetooth range (about 30 feet).

If you need further assistance, we recommend contacting Level.
