EPLACING THE
B
ATTERIES
The batteries should be replaced annually prior to annual smoke
test of the detectors OR if the Low Battery warning is sounded.
Always replace both batteries.
1. Remove the detector from the base as described in
Removing the Detector
.
2. Open the battery compartment as described in
Installing the
Detector.
3. Remove the batteries by pulling the red cloth tab.
4. Observing proper polarity, insert two 3V lithium batteries
into the detector battery compartment and replace the
battery compartment cover.
5. Attach the detector to its mounting base as described in
Installing the Detector.
6. Smoke test the detector as described above.

LEANING THE
D
ETECTOR
Clean the detector cover with a dry or damp (water) cloth as
needed to keep it free from dust and dirt. When necessary, clean
the detector interior and
replace
the smoke chamber as follows:
1. Remove the detector from its mounting base. (See
Removing
the Detector
)
2. Remove the batteries
. (
See
Replacing the Batteries)
3. Slide a flat-blade screwdriver in the slot on the detector cap
and gently push the handle down to pry the cap up and off.
(See Figure
.)
4. Press in on the sides of the smoke chamber and pull it up
and away from the detector and discard. See Figure

5. Blow out or use a soft-bristled brush to remove dust and dirt
from the smoke chamber base.
6. Align the new smoke chamber up with the smoke chamber
base and snap down into place.
7. To replace the detector cap, replace the batteries, and re-
attach the sensor to the base, see
Installing the Detector
.
8.
Test the sensitivity as described in
Testing the Detector
Sensitivity.
M
AINTAINING THE
D
ETECTOR
The smoke detector should be tested weekly. (See
Testing the
Detector Sensitivity
and
Smoke Testing the Detector.
)
When a 560/570 Series detector fitted with a transmitter requires
maintenance, it extinguishes its LED and initiates the internal
signals described in the following table.
Signal
Maintenance required
Clean Me
Smoke detector sensitivity is out of
range and needs cleaning. See
Cleaning the Detector
.
Maintenance alert
Detector failed power self-test. Perform
a sensitivity test. See Testing the
Detector Sensitivity. If the problem
persists, replace the unit.
Low battery
Batteries in the detector are low.
Replace them.
