TEN YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY

If after reviewing this user guide you feel that your alarm is defective in any way, do 
not tamper with the unit. In many cases, the quickest way to exchange your alarm is to 
return it to the original place of purchase. Alternatively, you may return it for servicing 
to Kidde. If you have questions, call Kidde Customer Service at 1-800-880-6788.

Kidde warrants that the enclosed alarm will be free from defects in material and 
workmanship or design under normal use and service for a period of ten years from the 
date of purchase. The obligation of Kidde under this warranty is limited to repairing or 
replacing the alarm or any part which we find to be defective in material, workmanship 
or design, free of charge, upon sending the alarm with proof of date of purchase, 
postage and return postage prepaid, to: Kidde Canada Inc., P.O. Box 40, Apsley, ON 
K0L 1A0.

This warranty shall not apply to the alarm if it has been damaged, modified, abused or 
altered after the date of purchase or if it fails to operate due to improper maintenance 
or inadequate power. Any implied warranties arising out of this sale, including but 
not limited to the implied warranties of description,merchantability and fitness for a 
particular purpose, are limited in duration to the above warranty period. In no event 
shall the Manufacturer be liable for loss of use of this product or for any indirect, 
special, incidental or consequential damages, or costs, or expenses incurred by the 
consumer or any other user of this product, whether due to a breach of contract, 
negligence, strict liability in tort or otherwise. The Manufacturer shall have no liability 
for any personal injury, property damage or any special, incidental, contingent or 
consequential damage of any kind resulting from gas leakage, fire or explosion.

Since some provinces do not allow limitations of the duration of an implied warranty 
or do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, 
the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you. While this warranty gives 
you specific legal rights, you may also have other rights which vary from province to 
province. The above warranty may not be altered except in writing signed by both 
parties hereto.

IMPORTANT: Do not remove unit back cover. Back cover removal will void 

warranty. 

Your Kidde smoke alarm is not a substitute for property, disability, life or 

other insurance of any kind. Appropriate insurance coverage is your responsibility.
