Ring Door Bell - Chime

I wanted to buy a Ring door bell as I have the ring security system. How can I connect the ring door bell up to my existing chime? Or would I be required to by the Ring Chime. This is in the fuse box currently below. If I replaced the existing doorbell with the Ring one will it automatically connect to the existing chime…

When I fitted mine, I removed one wire from the chime. I then removed both from the push button and put those wires into the Ring. I then went back to the chime and put the disconnected wire into the same connector as the connected wire (in essence joining them together at the chime). That's it.
The ring is just powered by those wires. It's incapable of operating the existing chime. It only activates a wifi signal when the button is pressed.
