How to Mount the Battery Powered Alarm
1 Mark
Place the mounting bracket against the
ceiling or wall, and using the mount-
ing bracket as a template, mark the
top and bottom holes with a pencil.
2 Drill
Using a 1/8” (3mm) drill bit, drill
two pilot holes in the center of the
two marked hole locations. This will
determine if a wood beam or stud is
present.
