What You’ll Need
•

•
Two CR123A batteries
How to Install the Batteries
Before proceeding,
please be sure that your system is disarmed and in
. Working on devices while the
system is armed can generate false alarms.
Did You Know?
Removing batteries without putting the system in Test mode could trigger an alarm, dispatch police/fire
assistance, and may result in a fine for a false alarm.
Is This Your Smoke Detector?
Make sure
that your Smoke Detector looks like the one
in the image. If it does, you have the right
document to find out how to install a battery
in your Smoke Detector.
1. Put your system in
2. If you have removed the Smoke Detector
from the wall/ceiling, turn the cover of the
Smoke Detector until the alignment arrow
on the cover points to the tab on the
Smoke Detector's body.
If the device is still attached to the
wall/ceiling, hold the top of the Smoke
Detector, and turn it counterclockwise until
it stops.
3. Pull the body of the Smoke Detector away
from the cover. If you have left the device
attached to the wall/ceiling, the cover will
remain attached once you've pulled the
Detector away.
Take a Look.
If a battery is already present,
remove it by gently pulling the end of the
ribbon up until the battery is loose. Then, you
can pull it free from the battery slot.
