minimum of 30 days when the battery gets low (see Troubleshooting Guide). Replace the battery when this
condition occurs, and test the unit after battery is replaced.
NOTE: Weekly testing is required.
WARNING! Use only the batteries specified. Use of different batteries may have a detrimental
effect on the smoke alarm.
NOTE: Constant exposures to extreme temperatures or humidity may reduce battery life.
