MOUNTING STEPS, you can install the alarm on the trim ring. Alignment
marks are provided on the side of the alarm and on the trim ring (see Figure

7. Install the alarm on the trim ring with the indicating marks aligned and rotate
the alarm in the direction of the “ON” arrow on the cover until the alarm
snaps in place (see Figure 7).
8. Turn on the A.C. power. The green A.C. Power On Indicator should be lit
when the alarm is operating from A.C. power.
TAMPER RESIST LOCKING PIN: To make your smoke alarm tamper resistant, a
locking pin has been provided with your alarm. Using this pin will help deter
children and others from removing the alarm from trim ring. To use the pin,
insert it into the hole in the side of the alarm after the alarm has been installed
on the trim ring (see Figure 8).
NOTE the tamper resist pin will have to be removed in order to change the bat-
teries. Use long nose pliers to pull the pin out of the hole. It is now possible to
remove the alarm from the trim ring.
