regular Maintenance
This unit has been designed to be as maintenance free as possible, but there are a few simple things you
must do to keep it working properly. Use only the replacement batteries listed below. The unit may not
operate properly with other batteries. Never use rechargeable batteries since they may not provide a constant
charge.
• Test it at least once a week.
• Clean the Smoke Alarm at least once a month; gently vacuum the outside of the Smoke Alarm
using your house hold vacuum’s soft brush attachment. Test the Smoke Alarm. Never use
water, cleaners or solvents since they may damage the unit.
• If the Smoke Alarm becomes contaminated by excessive dirt, dust and/or grime, and cannot
be cleaned to avoid unwanted alarms, replace the unit immediately.
• Relocate the unit if it sounds frequent unwanted alarms. See product manual under
“Locations to Avoid for Smoke Alarms” for details.
• When the battery becomes weak, the Smoke Alarm unit will “chirp” about once a minute (the
low battery warning). This low battery warning should last 7 days, but you should replace
the battery immediately to continue your protection. Note: If locking pin is engaged see
"Locking Feature" section for unlocking instructions.

Your Smoke Alarm requires one standard 9V battery. The following batteries are acceptable as replacements:
Duracell #MN1604, (Ultra) #MX1604; Eveready (Energizer) #522. You may also use a Lithium battery like the
