Wall Mounted Alarm

For a wall-mount, you will need to pull out the removable adapter and
power cord. This simple process is described on the following pages

.

Installation tips for power cord models:
The power cord option provides more flexibility in mounting locations
and allows the alarm to be easily installed at eye level.
Note: If you mount the alarm high on a wall, make sure it is at least
15.2 cm (6") from the ceiling. Any higher than this, it will be in “dead air
space” and CO may not reach the sensors.
To remove the adapter and install:
1. With the bottom of the unit facing you

(adapter at top), use a small screw-
driver or similar tool to pry the back
cover up to release it.

2. Remove the back cover.
3. Next, place your thumb on the adapter

thumb release and pull the adapter
thumb release out slightly. Pull the
adapter out of the alarm with your other hand.

4. With the adapter removed, pull the power cord out of the cord

recess, remove the twist tie, and extend the power cord.

5. With the power cord extended, tuck the last few inches of the power

cord into the cord recess (See the illustration on page 4). Gently
pull the cord at the bottom of the cord recess until the cord
becomes taught and lays flat in cord recess.

6. Using the back cover, mark the location for the two mounting holes

on the wall. 

7. If you are mounting the alarm in plaster board or

drywall, drill a 4.8 mm (3/16") hole into the wall
and insert the plastic anchors provided. Install the
two screws provided into the wall or wall anchors
until the screw head is approximately 3 mm (1/8")
from the wall.

8. Hook the keyhole in the back cover over the

screw head before or after replacing the back cover on the unit. 

9. Plug the adapter into an unswitched wall socket.

Table Top Alarm

You can also use your Kidde CO Alarm as a table top unit. Simply fol-
low the steps for removing adapter, then instead of mounting the alarm
to a wall,  replace the back cover and stand the unit on a  table, bed-
side stand, or chest of drawers.
