FOLLOW THESE SIMPLE STEPS!

This unit is designed to be mounted on the ceiling, or on the wall if necessary.

Tools you will need:

•Pencil

•Drill with 3/16” (5 mm) drill bit

•Standard/flathead screwdriver

•Hammer

1.Hold base firmly and pull up on cover tab marked “OPEN HERE.” This will open the hinged cover. The cover may unsnap from the base if it's opened too far. This will not damage the unit—the cover hinge snaps back into place easily.

2.Hold the smoke alarm base against the ceiling (or wall) and make a mark at the center of each of the mounting slots with a pencil.

3.Put the unit where it won’t get covered with dust when you drill the mounting holes.

4.Using a 3/16” (5 mm) drill bit, drill a hole through each pencil mark.

5.Insert the plastic screw anchors (in the plastic bag with screws) into the holes. Tap the screw anchors gently with a hammer, if necessary, until they are flush with the ceiling or wall.

6.Tighten the screws (provided) into the screw anchors, then loosen them two turns.

7.Fit the smoke alarm over the screw heads as shown. Close cover.

8.If the smoke alarm cover does not line up the way you want it, rotate the base and re-tighten the screws.

9.Activate the battery. With the cover open, remove and reinstall the battery so the terminals on the battery match the terminals on the smoke alarm. Match “+” to “+” and “-” to “-.” Push the battery in until it snaps in securely and cannot be shaken loose.

If the battery is not snapped in completely, the unit cannot receive battery power. The smoke alarm may beep briefly when you install the battery—this is normal.

Once the battery is installed, the red power indicator light (behind the test button) will flash once a minute to show you the smoke alarm is working.

10.Close the cover all the way.

11.Test the smoke alarm. See “Weekly Testing.”
