Figure 4: Installation Instructions

6.4As described in Figures 1-3, attach the mounting plate on the wall. Be sure the UP text and arrow are facing up. Use the screws and anchors provided to secure the mounting plate.

6.5The battery is INSTALLED REVERSED FOR SHIPPING. Remove and reinstall the battery in the correct orientation as noted on the inside of the battery door. When installing the battery, align the “+” and “-” battery terminals on the correct contacts. The alarm will beep once indicating proper battery installation.

CAUTION! IF NO BATTERY IS INSTALLED, THE BATTERY DOOR WILL NOT CLOSE AND THE UNIT WILL NOT ATTACH TO THE MOUNTING BRACKET.

6.6Alignment marks are provided on the edge of the trim plate and the alarm. After installing the mounting plate, place the alarm on the mounting plate with the alignment marks lined up. Twist the alarm in the direction indicated by the "ON" arrow on the alarm cover (see step D) until it locks in place.

6.7To make your carbon monoxide alarm tamper resistant, a locking pin has

been provided in the bag with the screws and anchors. Using this pin will deter children and others from removing the alarm from the mounting plate. To use the pin insert it into the hole in the side of the alarm after the alarm has been installed on the mounting plate (see fig. 5). Note the tamper resist pin will have to be removed in order to change the battery; this can be done easily with a long nose pliers. Using the long nose pliers pull the pin out of the hole, it is now possible to remove the alarm from the mounting plate.

6.8Test alarm immediately following installation and weekly for proper operation by pushing the test button until a short beep is heard (approximately three seconds). Release the button. The alarm will then test itself for proper operation and the RED L.E.D. will flash 4-6 times. At completion of the self-test, the alarm will sound 2 alarm patterns. The alarm then resumes normal operation.

6.9This box contains two self-adhesive labels. You should write the telephone numbers of the emergency service provider and a qualified technician in the space provided on the labels. Place one label next to the alarm, and the other label near a source of fresh air where you plan to gather after the alarm indicates the presence of carbon monoxide.
