In addition to weekly testing, the alarm requires periodic 
cleaning to remove dust, dirt, and debris.
Clean the alarm at least once a month to remove dust, dirt, or 
debris.
Use a vacuum cleaner with the soft brush, vacuum all sides 
and covers of smoke alarm device.
This alarm has a low battery monitor which will cause the alarm
to “chirp” approx every 40 seconds and the red LED flash once 
at the same time for a minimum of thirty days when the battery 
gets low.
If there is a defective battery or other failures, you can refer to 
“Trouble shooting” for solution, if there are still failures during 
warranty, you can return to your retailer.

WARNING:The battery is sealed in cover and not replaceable.

Please replace another new alarm if the low battery chirp occurs.
