BATTERY INSTALLATION AND REMOVAL
Note: If battery carrier tamper resist feature has been activated it will
need to be deactivated in order to change the battery. Refer to section 3
“Battery Carrier Tamper Resist Feature” for instructions.
To replace or install the batteries press down on the battery carrier and
then release to allow the carrier to pop open. The battery can then be
pulled out of the carrier. When installing a new battery into the carrier,
make sure the battery terminals are exposed and that the polarity
matches the markings printed on the battery carrier. Completely press
the battery carrier down into the alarm and release, the battery carrier
will lock into the closed position.
A missing or improperly installed battery will prevent the battery carrier
from closing and result in improper alarm operation.
This smoke alarm uses a 9V carbon zinc battery (alkaline and lithium
batteries may also be used). A fresh battery should last for one year
under normal operating conditions.
This alarm has a low battery monitor circuit which will cause the alarm
to “chirp” approximately every 30-40 seconds for a minimum of seven
(7) days when the battery gets low. Replace the battery when this condi-
tion occurs.
If the alarm does sound, check for fires first . If a fire is discovered, get
out and call the fire department. If no fire is present, check to see if
one of the reasons listed in Section 2 may have caused the alarm.
