Battery Installation
Install the battery by first removing the battery door and the battery pack.
Align the connector with the slot in the battery. Insure the orientation of
the two alignment ribs align with the slot in the battery. (Red dot on
battery will align with red wire). Press the connector in until it is fully
seated. See drawing below. Depending on the charge state of the battery
pack (the battery packs can have different amounts of energy stored in
them due to storage time), you may hear the alarm sound briefly to
indicate the alarm is receiving power. Be sure to correctly insert battery
into the battery compartment, as shown in drawing below. After
inserting battery, replace back door.
WARNING:
Do not use any other type of rechargeable battery in your
alarm or attempt to recharge the battery pack yourself. Improper
charging may even cause the battery pack to overheat or leak, thus
posing possible injury to the user.
How to Install Your Alarm
Your Kidde CO alarm with its removable adapter
allows you to install the alarm as a wall mounted
unit, a direct plug unit, or as a table top unit.
Direct Plug Alarm
In its “as shipped” configuration, all you need to
do is install the backup battery and your Kidde
CO alarm is ready to be plugged directly into a
wall socket.
To install:
1. Choose a standard 120V unswitched outlet to
plug the alarm into.
2. Pull the slide support out approximately 1/4” until the slide snaps into
place. This will help support unit in the wall outlet.
3. Plug the alarm into the outlet.
