electrical outlet.

    the triangle hang tags. You should turn 
    the triangle tags in the upward position 
    as shown. 

2. Find a place that you would like to 
    mount the Audio Alarm. Use the 
    screws provided for wood surface 
    or if necessary, use the anchors 
    as well for dry wall mounting. 

3. Once the Audio Alarm is mounted, you may connect the AC adapter 
    to the Audio Alarm and power up the Audio Alarm. 

5. OPERATION

The Audio Alarm will sound automatically when the MA Series Control 
Panel sounds its internal siren. To stop the sounding of both Control 
Panel and Audio Alarm, simply disarm the Control Panel. Once the 
Control Panel is disarmed, it will send a disarm signal automatically to 
the Audio Alarm so the siren sound can be terminated for both devices. 

The Audio Alarm comes with a built-in 9V alkaline battery. When the 
battery voltage reaches a low level, the "Low Battery" LED indicator  on 
the Audio Alarm will begin to flash. If the battery is not installed at all, the 
"Low Battery" LED will remain on. 

To replace the battery, follow the procedures below. 

1. Remove the Audio Alarm from the wall. 

2. Remove the AC adapter and turn 
    off the Audio Alarm by sliding the 
    power switch to the "OFF" position. 

3. Undo all the screws on the back of 
    the unit and remove the back cover.

    replace it with a new battery. 

5. Put the back cover and tighten all 
    screws and mount the Audio Alarm. 
    You should always plug in the AC 
    adapter to the Audio Alarm as the 
    main power source, the battery is 
    intended for operation within a short 
    period of time such a power failure.
