TAMPER RESIST FEATURE
Smoke Alarm Tamper Resist Feature
•
To make the smoke alarm tamper-resistant, a tamper resist feature has been
provided. To activate this feature you must break out the tamper-resist posts
on the mounting plate (
Figure 4A
). Use a small screwdriver.
•
Using this feature will deter children and others from removing the alarm from
the mounting plate. With the blocks removed, the tamper-resist feature will be
activated when the alarm is installed on the mounting plate.
•
The tamper-resist tab will have to be released in order to remove alarm from
mounting plate. Using a tool (small screwdriver) push the tab away from the
mounting plate (
Figure 4B
) and rotate the alarm anti-clockwise in the “OFF”
direction.
•
After re-installation, test the alarm by depressing and holding down the Test
button for several seconds. This should sound the alarm.
