The smoke alarm will sound 3 short beeps followed by a 2-second pause and then repeats. On models with a LED (light emitting diode) the indicator light under the clear Push-to-Test button will blink once per FIGURE 6 6 second while the button is being pushed and the alarm is sounding. The smoke alarm will stop sounding when you release the button. 2. If your smoke alarm has the False Alarm Control or Safety Light feature see “SPECIAL SMOKE ALARM FEATURES” for further testing information. 3. IMPORTANT: Always test your smoke alarm upon returning from vacation, or any other time when no one has been in your household or residence for several days. 4. If a smoke alarm is installed in a mobile home, test the smoke alarm after you remove the vehicle from storage and before each trip. !WARNING: IF YOUR SMOKE ALARM DOES NOT RESPOND AS DESCRIBED IN ANY OF THE ABOVE TESTS, CHECK THAT A GOOD BATTERY IS PROPERLY INSTALLED. IF A GOOD BATTERY IS PROPERLY INSTALLED, PROMPTLY REMOVE THE UNIT, REPACK IT AND RETURN IT FOR REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT (SEE SECTION “WHERE TO SEND YOUR SMOKE ALARM IF IT NEEDS SERVICE”). TAKING CARE OF YOUR SMOKE ALARM Your smoke alarm has been designed and manufactured to be as maintenance- free as possible. Here are a few simple steps you must perform, in addition to the weekly tests described in the section “WEEKLY TESTING OF YOUR SMOKE ALARM,” to keep your unit in good working order. • The smoke alarm should be vacuumed monthly or more often if there is dust, dirt or kitchen grease that can accumulate. Use a soft brush or wand attachment and vacuum all slots in the cover and side. FOR YOUR SAFETY, you must properly clean and maintain your smoke alarm, since a dirty or malfunctioning unit may fail to alarm or cause unwanted nuisance alarms. • If the unit is damaged or fails to operate properly, and you have checked that a good battery is installed correctly, follow the directions in the section “WHERE TO SEND YOUR SMOKE ALARM IF IT NEEDS SERVICE” for return. FOR YOUR SAFETY, DO NOT OPEN THE SMOKE ALARM AND TRY TO REPAIR IT YOURSELF. While smoke alarms are economical devices, they contain precision electronic components that are precisely calibrated. Repair must be done by the manufacturer. REPLACING THE BATTERY The smoke alarm will “beep” once a minute for at least 30 days when the battery is weak. The battery must immediately be replaced with a fresh one. The battery should also be changed if it does not sound an alarm when tested. TO REPLACE THE BATTERY: 1. Check if the tamper resist locking pin is installed in the smoke alarm (see “USING THE TAMPER RESIST LOCKING MECHANISM” section). If so, pull the pin completely out of the smoke alarm using long-nose pliers. 2. Remove the smoke alarm from the mounting bracket by twisting counterclockwise. 3. Replace old battery with a fresh one. If your smoke alarm has a safety light, the miniature lamp operates on two AA batteries. (See recommended batteries below.) 4. Check that battery connections are secure and the battery is secured in its compartment. 7 5. Test smoke alarm for proper operation (see ”WEEKLY TESTING OF YOUR SMOKE ALARM” section). The smoke alarm operates on a 9-volt battery. The normal battery operating life will be one (1) year. The life of some batteries may be less. 6. Firex smoke alarms sold with Ultralife long-life lithium batteries require replacement approximately every ten (10) years. Replace the battery approximately every ten (10) years or when the low battery signal sounds. !CAUTION: YOU SHOULD ONLY USE THE BATTERIES SPECIFIED HERE OR ON THE LABEL OF THE UNIT. For Models A, B, C, E and PB use: Eveready 216, 522 or 1222; Mallory MN1604; Duracell MN1604; or Ultralife U9VL-J. For Model E also use AA Heavy Duty for light power. The miniature lamp operates on two (2) AA batteries. For replacement, use heavy-duty or alkaline AA batteries: Eveready 1215, E91, or Duracell M15HD, MN1500. !CAUTION: DO NOT USE ANY TYPE OF RECHARGEABLE BATTERIES. USING THE TAMPER RESIST LOCKING MECHANISM To make the smoke alarm somewhat tamper resistant, a “locking pin” has been provided in the base of the unit. It will help deter a child or other individual from removing the smoke alarm from the bracket. See Figure 7. This can be installed by the following directions. LOCKING PIN BASE OF UNIT FIGURE 7 FIGURE 8 1. Remove the break-away locking pin from the unit by rocking pin back and forth. 2. Put the smoke alarm back on the mounting bracket. (See section“HOW TO INSTALL YOUR SMOKE ALARM.”) 3. Using long-nose pliers, grab the head of the locking pin and insert into hole located on the side of the smoke alarm. See Figure 8. 4. The Tamper Resist feature is now installed and complete. To Remove: 5. Using long-nose pliers, grasp the head of the locking pin and pull the pin completely out of the smoke alarm. 6. The smoke alarm can now be removed from the mounting bracket with a counterclockwise twist. 8 SPECIAL SMOKE ALARM FEATURES If your smoke alarm has one or...
