7. Smoke alarms have technical limitations and may not respond in all situations. FIRE
PREVENTION is your best safeguard.
8. For a replacement Owner’s Manual or Safety Checklist, please indicate your unit
model, include a self-addressed stamped envelope and send to:
WARNING
: Alarm battery is shipped deactivated. Check your alarm for
proper battery installation.
WEEKLY TESTING OF YOUR SMOKE ALARM
1. FOR A COMPLETE WEEKLY TEST OF THE ELECTRONICS AND THE SENSOR
OPERATION, FIRMLY DEPRESS THE TEST BUTTON ON THE COVER OF THE
SMOKE ALARM FOR A FEW SECONDS. The smoke LED (light emitting diode),
which is the indicator light under the clear Push-to-Test button, will blink once per
second while the button is being pushed and the alarm is sounding. The smoke
alarm will stop sounding when you release the button.
2. If your smoke alarm has the False Alarm Control or Safety Light feature see “SPECIAL
SMOKE ALARM FEATURES” for further testing information.
3.
IMPORTANT
: Always test your smoke alarm upon returning from vacation, or any
other time when no one has been in your household or residence for several days.
4. If a smoke alarm is installed in a mobile home, test the smoke alarm after you
remove the vehicle from storage and before each trip.
WARNING
: If your smoke alarm does not respond as described in any
of the above tests, check that a good battery is properly installed. If a good bat-
tery is properly installed, promptly remove the unit, repack it and return it for
repair or replacement .
TAKING CARE OF YOUR SMOKE ALARM
Your smoke alarm has been designed and manufactured to be as maintenance-free
as possible. Here are a few simple steps you must perform, in addition to the weekly
tests described in the section “WEEKLY TESTING OF YOUR SMOKE ALARM,” to keep
your unit in good working order.
• The smoke alarm should be vacuumed monthly or more often if there is
dust, dirt or kitchen grease that can accumulate. Use a soft brush or wand
attachment and vacuum all slots in the cover and side. FOR YOUR SAFETY,
you must properly clean and maintain your smoke alarm, since a dirty or
malfunctioning unit may fail to alarm or cause unwanted nuisance alarms.
• If the unit is damaged or fails to operate properly, and you have checked
that a good battery is installed correctly, follow the directions in the sec-
tion "WHERE TO SEND YOUR SMOKE ALARM IF IT NEEDS SERVICE" for
return. FOR YOUR SAFETY, DO NOT OPEN THE SMOKE ALARM AND TRY
TO REPAIR IT YOURSELF. While smoke alarms are economical devices,
they contain precision electronic components that are precisely calibrated.
The manufacturer must do repairs.
REPLACING THE BATTERY
The smoke alarm will “beep” once a minute for at least 30 days when the battery is
weak. The battery must
immediately
be replaced with a fresh one.
The battery should also be changed if it does not sound an alarm when tested. TO
REPLACE THE BATTERY:
1. Check if the tamper resist locking pin is installed in the smoke alarm (see “USING
THE TAMPER RESIST LOCKING MECHANISM” section). If so, pull the pin com-
pletely out of the smoke alarm using long-nose pliers.
