IMPORTANT INFORMATION
SMOKE ALARM SAFETY CHECKLIST
PIN THIS UP CLOSE TO YOUR SMOKE ALARM IN AN
EASY-TO-READ LOCATION AND REVIEW BOTH SIDES OFTEN
Before installing, using and maintaining your smoke alarm read the
entire Owner’s Manual and Warranty, and keep it in a convenient location
for reference.
1. Test your smoke alarm every week. To test the electronics, firmly
depress the button.
2. Your smoke alarm will not work without power. Never shut off its
power or remove the battery to quiet the alarm.
FOR BATTERY-POWERED UNITS: When your smoke alarm beeps
about once a minute, the battery is weak. Immediately install a new
battery correctly. Be sure to use only batteries specified in Owner’s
Manual or on unit. Test unit after installing a new battery.
3. Clean and vacuum the openings on your smoke alarm once a month.
4. Do not open the smoke alarm or try to repair it. For replacement
information see the WARRANTY in the Owner’s Manual.
5. Verify you have the proper number of smoke alarms in your home
and the correct location for each one. A smoke alarm will not respond
well in an incorrect location.
6. If your smoke alarm has one or more of these special features,
please note:
• FALSE ALARM CONTROL (Model C): Pushing test/hush button
reduces sensitivity for up to 15 minutes, minimizing nuisance alarms.
• FLASHING LIGHT (Model E): Pushing test button turns on flashing
safety light. Very thick smoke may obscure light.
7. Smoke alarms have technical limitations and may not respond in all
situations. FIRE PREVENTION is your best safeguard.
8. For a replacement Owner’s Manual or Safety Checklist, please
indicate your unit model, include a self-addressed stamped envelope
and send to:
Invensys Controls Americas
