Operation
When Units Are Interconnected
Only the red LED of the alarm “which senses the smoke” or “is being tested” (the originating unit) will flash rapidly. All other units in the interconnect system will sound an alarm but their red LED’s will NOT flash rapidly.
Testing
Test by pushing the Test button on the cover and hold it down for a minimum of 5 seconds. This will sound the alarm if all the electronic circuitry, horn and battery are working. In an interconnected installation all interconnected alarms should sound when the test button on any one of the interconnected alarms is pressed. If no alarm sounds, the unit has defective batteries or other failure. DO NOT use an open flame to test your alarm, you could damage the alarm or ignite combustible materials and start a structure fire.
Alarm Memory
This smoke alarm is equipped with an alarm memory feature which produces a visual indication when an alarm has been activated. A lit red LED indicates the memory condition. The memory will remain activated until it is reset by pushing the test button.
Test the alarm weekly to ensure proper operation. Erratic or low sound coming from your alarm may indicate a defective alarm, and it should be returned to place of purchase (see Warranty section).
NOTE: WEEKLY TESTING IS REQUIRED!
