Reset:
If the the smoke/CO alarm is sounding a CO alarm, pressing
the test/reset button on any Kidde device will silence the system.
If the CO condition that caused the alert continues, the alarm will
reactivate. Reactivation times depend on the amount of CO present.
Weekly testing is required!
If at any time the alarm does not perform as described, verify the
three batteries are installed correctly and that they don’t need
replacing.
Clean dust and other buildup off the unit. If it still doesn’t operate
properly call the consumer hotline at 1-800-880-6788.
Smoke Alarm Silent Mode Feature
The smoke alarm Silent Mode feature has the capability of
temporarily desensitizing the smoke alarm circuit for approximately
eight minutes.
This feature is to be used only when a known condition, such
as smoke from cooking, activates the alarm. Activate the smoke
alarm Silent Mode feature by pushing the button on the smoke
alarm cover. If the smoke is not too dense, the alarm will silence
immediately and the voice will announce “Hush mode activated!
Mode Hush activé!”. The green LED will blink every two seconds
for approximately eight minutes to indicate that the alarm is
in a temporarily desensitized condition. The smoke alarm will
automatically reset after approximately eight minutes and will sound
again if combustion particles are still present. The smoke alarm
Silent Mode feature can be used repeatedly until the air has been
cleared of the condition causing the alarm. Pushing the button
while the unit is in Silent Mode will end the smoke alarm Silent
Mode period and the voice will announce “Hush mode cancelled!
Mode Hush annulé!”
Remote Smoke Alarm Silent Mode
You can silence all of the Kidde alarms in your home at once by
pressing the button on any single Kidde alarm to activate the smoke
alarm Silent Mode feature. This allows you to silence an alarm
that may be difficult to reach, even if it is the initiating alarm. This
feature should only be used when a known alarm condition, such as
smoke from cooking, activates the alarm.
