4.

Install  two screws on the marks. If necessary, use wall
anchors.

5.

Line up the base with the screws, pull the wiring through the
square hole, and slide the base down the screws to the wall.
For surface wiring, pull the wires through the wiring channel
at the top of the base.

6.

Strip 3/8 inch of insulation from each wire, and insert under
the appropriate screw terminal. See Figure 2.

7.

Install two screws in the bottom two mounting holes and
tighten all four screws until the base is firmly on the wall.

8.

Replace the alarm cover.

9.

Apply power. The LED should flash green for
approximately 18 seconds and then light steadily.

10.   Test the installation. See Testing the Alarm.

Testing the Alarm

The alarm should be tested regularly to verify that it is
functioning properly.

Use the following steps to test the alarm:

1. To test the CO alarm operation, press the TEST/HUSH button

until the LED turns red and then release, unless you plan to
test the relay contacts and panel message then continue to
hold the button down through the Test/Hush verification.
During the Test/Hush verfication sequence, the alarm should
beep 4 times, pause 5 seconds, beep 4 times, and then the
LED should turn green to indicate the CO alarm is installed
and functioning properly.

2. To test the relay contacts and panel, continue to press the

test button through the Test/Hush verification operation  until
the LED flashes amber, then release. The LED should
continue to flash amber and the relay should trip. After 9
seconds, the relay resets and the LED should return to green.

3. If the alarm fails the test, wait a few minutes and repeat. See

Understanding the LED and Sounder.

4. If the alarm fails again, replace the unit.
