Operation
Battery Tamper Resist Feature
This alarm has a battery tamper resist feature, which prevents the
battery door from being opened. This feature is effective in
preventing the removal of the battery from this device (which will
render the unit inoperable).
To activate the battery tamper resist feature, remove the unit from
the mounting plate and locate the small cut-out in the middle of
the product label on the back of the unit. With a small
screwdriver, or similar tool, slide the switch towards the direction
indicated by the arrows (Image 4). The tamper resist feature is
now active and the battery door can not be opened until the
tamper resist feature is deactivated.
NOTE: Before activating the battery tamper resist feature, make
sure a fresh battery is installed in the unit and that the battery
door is properly closed. If the battery tamper resist feature is
activated while the battery door is open, the battery door will not
close and the unit will be inoperable.
To deactivate the battery tamper resist, in order to change the
battery, remove the unit from the mounting plate and locate the
small cut-out in the middle of the product label. Using a
screwdriver or similar tool, slide the switch in the OPPOSITE
DIRECTION OF THE ARROWS. The battery door can now be
opened.
