LOW BATTERY
This alarm has a low battery monitor circuit which will cause the alarm to "chirp"
every 60 seconds (with a red LED flash every 30 seconds), for a minimum of
30 days, at the end of the life of the alarm to indicate that the alarm needs
replacement. Prior to the low battery chirp the LED will flash twice every 30
seconds for a period of 30 days. The purpose of this is to alert the user that the
alarm will be entering low-battery and allows the alarm to be changed at a time of
convenience to the user (i.e. chirping can be avoided during unsociable hours).
CLEANING YOUR ALARM
YOUR ALARM SHOULD BE VACUUMED ONCE A MONTH
If the tamper resist feature has been activated you will need to follow the
instructions on Page 8 to remove your alarm for maintenance.
To clean your alarm, remove it from the mounting bracket as outlined in the
beginning of this section. You can clean the interior of your alarm (sensing
chamber) by using compressed air or a vacuum cleaner hose and blowing or
vacuuming through the openings around the perimeter of the alarm. The outside of
the alarm can be wiped with a damp cloth.
After cleaning, re-install your alarm and test your alarm by using the test button.
If cleaning does not restore the alarm to normal operation the alarm should be
replaced.
