plate and tested in its installed position

and it will sound an audible alarm 
consisting of 2 cycles of 3 loud beeps,

rapidly during the audible signal 

NOTE: 

The test button accurately tests 

the alarm’s smoke sensing circuit, there is 
no need to test your alarm with smoke  If 
your smoke alarm fails to give an audible 
test signal, please refer immediately 
to ‘Troubleshooting’ at the end of this

SILENCE™

DANGER:

 If your smoke alarm emits the 

full alarm signal and you are not testing 
the unit, the smoke alarm is warning 
you of a potentially dangerous situation 
that requires your immediate attention  
Only use the alarm silence function after 
making sure that there is no ongoing fire 
emergency situation  Do not block the 
vents on the alarm or disable the smoke 
alarm in any way, as this will remove your 
protection  Smoke alarms can sometimes 
react to cooking fumes or other non 
emergency situations  Your smoke alarm 
features “Smart Silence” technology  In
