Maintenance
Gently vacuum off any dust on the cover of the smoke alarm with your vacuum’s
soft brush attachment. Test the smoke alarm once you have vacuumed. Never
use water, cleaners or solvents to clean the smoke alarm as they may damage the
smoke alarm. Do not paint the smoke detector. For information on how to
maintain your smoke detector, refer to the smoke detector user’s manual provided
in the Warranty Packet.
Battery
The smoke alarm will not function if the battery is missing, disconnected, dead, the
wrong type of battery is used or the battery is not installed correctly. The smoke
detector requires one standard 9V battery.
When the battery becomes weak, the smoke alarm will “beep” about once a
minute (the low battery warning). The low battery warning should last for 30 days,
but you should replace the battery immediately to continue your protection.
When the battery is removed from the alarm, the battery flag in the compartment
will pop up; therefore, the alarm cannot be installed to the mounting bracket
without a battery.
Regardless of the manufacturer’s suggested battery life, you MUST replace the
battery once the smoke alarm starts “beeping” (the low battery warning).
For information on the correct battery and battery installation for your smoke
detector, refer to the smoke detector user’s manual provided in the Warranty
Packet.
WARNING
Only use the replacement battery recommended by the smoke detector
manufacturer. The smoke detector alarm may not operate properly with
other batteries. Never use a rechargeable battery as it may not provide a
constant charge. Never disconnect the battery to silence the alarm.
