Install 9V Battery
IMPORTANT:
Before installing your
smoke alarm the battery must be
removed from the alarm and the
protective
ribbon covering the terminals on the battery
should be removed
. The battery should then
be refitted. The battery compartment has
been designed to prevent the battery being
inserted incorrectly.
CAUTION:
The horn is designed to
be loud to wake you in an emergency.
Avoid placing your ear close to the alarm
when installing the battery.
Insert the battery that was provided with the
alarm making sure that the positive and negative
connections are in the correct position, see
diagram. The
single
red
LED (light) on the front
of the alarm should now flash once every 40
seconds to show the alarm is active.
