Important Information About This Smoke/CO Alarm
Required Power Supply
• This combination smoke-CO alarm requires a
working 9-volt battery to operate properly. This
combination alarm WILL NOT work if the bat-
tery is removed, drained or improperly con-
nected. DO NOT use any other kind of battery
except as specified in this manual.
NOTE: Battery powered (DC) combination
alarms offer added protection in the event of a
power failure.
• This combination smoke-CO alarm operates
on battery power only. Having only one source
of power is less reliable than having two differ-
ent power sources. If the battery is too weak
to power the alarm, or is removed from the
alarm, the alarm will not protect you from haz-
ardous conditions within your home. Make
sure a battery-only installation complies with
your local codes and regulations. Check with
your local fire department or building code
enforcement department if you are unsure of
the rules.
• DO NOT remove or disconnect battery to quiet
unwanted alarms. This will remove your pro-
tection. This combination alarm features a
Quick Quiet™ False Alarm Control™ button
which, when activated, will quiet unwanted
smoke alarms for approximately 10 minutes
and quiet CO alarms for up to 6 minutes.
Coverage
• Install a smoke alarm in every room and on
every level of the home. Smoke may not reach
the smoke alarm for many reasons. For exam-
ple, if a fire starts in a remote part of the
home, on another level, in a chimney, wall,
roof, or on the other side of a closed door,
smoke may not reach the smoke alarm in time
to alert household members. A smoke alarm
will not promptly detect a fire EXCEPT in the
area or room in which it is installed.
Installation
• Observe and follow all local and national build-
ing codes for installation.
WARNING
• DO NOT connect this combination alarm to
any other type of smoke or combination alarm
or auxiliary device.
