Battery Installation/Replacement

Installation/Replacement

Since batteries are not installed in the unit at the factory, you will need to install them.

T h ree AA batteries have been included with your purchase. When replacing the batteries, we recommend use of the following for a minimum of one year normal operation:

• Duracell MN1500 • Rayovac 815

•Energizer E91

These batteries can be purchased at your local retailer.

Note: Constant exposure to high or low humidity may reduce battery efficiency.

NOTE: Your Kidde CO alarm will NOT monitor CO levels during the time that the "Low Battery" warning or error warning is being displayed.
