Had you skipped the following step?

 

6. At the end of the installation process, select None as the Traditional Chime option to avoid any damage to your plug-in AC power adapter.

Is the transformer also rated for 10 va or higher power?

 

Note @DannyBearAgain's suggestion only applies if you don't have a chime on the circuit.

 

It's possible the doorbell is defective, so you could exchange it with the seller.  It is also possible that the transformer is defective.
