Operating and Installation Instructions
Step 2: Mounting Instructions
CAUTION: YOUR SMOKE/CO ALARM IS SEALED
AND THE COVER IS NOT REMOVABLE!
1. To help identify the date to replace the unit, a label has
been affixed to the side of the alarm. Write the “Replace
by” date (10 years from initial power up) in permanent
marker on the label. See Alarm Replacement section for
additional information.
2. Remove the mounting bracket from the back of the
alarm by holding the mounting bracket and twisting the
alarm in the direction indicated by the “OFF”arrow on
the alarm cover.
3. Selecting the proper location for your Smoke/CO Alarm,
as described on Pages 8-11. To ensure aesthetic
alignment of the alarm with the hallway, or wall, the
“A” line on the mounting bracket must be parallel with
the hallway when ceiling mounted, or horizontal when
wall mounted.
4. Install the alarm on the mounting bracket and rotate the
alarm in the direction of the “ON” arrow on the cover
until the alarm ratchets into place (this ratcheting
function allows for aesthetic alignment). Note: The alarm
will mount to the bracket in 4 positions (every 90
degrees).
5. Pull the Battery Pull Tab (yellow tab protruding from unit)
completely out of unit. This will automatically connect
the battery.
