If you are not sure about the insulation in your mobile home, or if you notice that the outer walls and ceiling are either hot or cold, install the alarm on an inside wall. For minimum protection, install at least one alarm close to the sleeping rooms. For additional protection, see SINGLE FLOOR PLAN in figure 2. WARNING: TEST YOUR SMOKE ALARM OPERATION AFTER RV OR MOBILE HOME VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN STORAGE, BEFORE EACH TRIP AND AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK DURING USE. 2. Locations To Avoid • In the garage. Products of combustion are present when you start your automobile. • Less than 4” (10cm) from the peak of an “A” frame type ceiling. • In an area where the temperature may fall below 40.F or rise above 100.F, such as garages and unfinished attics; this should also include electrical boxes exposed to these environments. • In dusty areas. Dust particles may cause nuisance alarm or failure to alarm. • In very humid areas. Moisture or steam can cause nuisance alarms. • In insect-infested areas. • Smoke alarms should not be installed within 3 ft (.9m) of the following: the door to a kitchen, the door to a bathroom containing a tub or shower, forced air supply ducts used for heating or cooling, ceiling or whole house ventilating fans, or other high air flow areas. • Kitchens. Normal cooking may cause nuisance alarms. If a kitchen alarm is desired, it should have an alarm silence feature or be a photoelectric type. • Near fluorescent lights. Electronic “noise” may cause nuisance alarms. • Smoke alarms are not to be used with detector guards unless the combination (alarm and guard) has been evaluated and found suitable for that purpose. 3. Installation Instructions MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS CAUTION: This unit is sealed. The cover is not removable! CAUTION: WHEN WALL MOUNTING: UNIT MUST BE MOUNTED SO THAT THE BATTERY BOX FACES DOWN! (SEE FIGURE 6). INCORRECT ORIENTATION OF WALL MOUNTED SMOKE ALARMS WILL DECREASE OPERATIONAL EFFECTIVENESS. 1. Remove the mounting plate from the back of the alarm by holding the mounting plate and twisting in the direction indicated by the "OFF" arrow on the alarm cover. 2. After selecting the proper smoke alarm location as described in Section 1, attach the mounting plate as shown in Figure 5 and Figure 5A. Use the screws and anchors provided to secure the mounting plate (use 3/16" drill bit for anchor holes). To ensure aesthetic alignment of the alarm with the hallway or wall, the “A” line on the mounting bracket should be parallel with the hallway when ceiling mounted, or horizontal when wall mounted. 3. Installation Instructions Alignment Marks A A FIGURE 5 FIGURE 5A FIGURE 6 When mounting in a hallway, the “A” line should be parallel with the hallway. 3. Make sure that the mounting screws are positioned in the small ends of the keyholes before tightening the screws. 4. Install the alarm on the mounting plate and rotate the alarm in the direction indicated by the "ON" arrow on the cover until the alarm ratchets into place (this ratcheting function allows for aesthetic alignment). NOTE: The alarm will mount to the bracket in 4 positions (every 90 degrees). When wall mounting, make sure the battery box is at the bottom of InstallRemove FIGURE 7 the unit. (see Figure 7) 5. Be sure the battery is installed correctly and the battery compartment is closed completely. See section 6 for battery installation instructions. CAUTION: THE BATTERY COMPARTMENT WILL NOT CLOSE WITHOUT A BATTERY INSTALLED PROPERLY. REMOVAL OF THE BATTERY WILL RENDER THE ALARM INOPERATIVE. 6. Test the unit to ensure proper operation by pressing the Test Button for a minimun of 5 seconds. CAUTION: Due to the loudness (85 decibels) of the alarm, always stand an arms length away from the unit when testing. Tamper Resist Feature Battery Carrier Tamper Resist Feature This alarm has a battery carrier tamper resist feature, which helps prevent the battery carrier from being opened. This feature helps prevent the removal of the battery from this device (which will render the device inoperative). 3. Installation Instructions To activate the battery carrier tamper resist feature, remove the unit from the trim plate and locate the small cut-out in the middle of the product label on the back of the unit. With a small screwdriver, or similar tool, slide the switch towards the top of the label. (see Figure 8). The tamper resist feature is now active and the battery carrier can not be opened FIGURE 8 until the tamper resist feature is deactivated. NOTE: Before activating the battery carrier tamper resist feature, make sure a fresh battery is installed in the unit and that the battery carrier is properly closed. If the battery carrier tamper resist feature is activated while the battery carrier is open, the battery carrier will not close and the unit will be inoperable. To deactivate the battery carrier tamper resist, in order to change the smoke alarm battery, remove the unit from the mounting plate, and locate the small cut-out in the middle o...
