Replacing the Batteries

Use only 3V lithium batteries listed on the battery compartment cover.

1. To remove the unit from the mounting base, grasp the unit and turn

it counterclockwise approximately 15 degrees.

2. Slide the battery compartment cover away from the alarm to unsnap

it and lift it off. See Figure 2.

3. Remove the batteries and dispose of them properly.

4 . Observing correct polarity, insert two new 3V lithium batteries into

the battery compartment and replace the cover.

5. Reattach the unit to the mounting base. See Installation, Step 5.

6. Test the system.

Cleaning

Clean the cover with a dry or damp (water) cloth as needed to keep it
free from dust and dirt.

When necessary, clean the interior and replace the optical chamber

from the optical base and discard. See Figure 5.

5. Blow out or use a soft-bristled brush to remove all dust and dirt from

the optical base.

6 . Line the new optical chamber up with the optical base by lining up

the the arrows on the optical chamber to the latches on the optical
base. Ensure that the LED cavity in the optical chamber is above the
LED and snap the optical chamber down into place.

7. Replace the alarm cap as follows:

-Line the alarm cap up with the unit.

-Insert the alarm cap into the unit and turn clockwise approximately
15 degrees. It should snap firmly into place.

8. Observing the proper polarity, replace the batteries and the battery
