9.4Attach 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.

9.5WIRING INSTALLATION

Internal terminal block for 14-22 AWG wires. 8 screw terminals at 0.2" (5 mm) spacing.

9.5.1Drill hole in wall or ceiling at center of plate, and pull system wires through the hole.

9.5.2Remove alarm cover by using the special tool provided on the three locking tabs on the alarm base. (see figure 4)

NOTE: The form 'C' relay contacts may be wired either N.O. or N.C. according to system panel requirements. These alarms are not designed to drive auxiliary devices

9.5.4The 12SIR alarms do not include power supervision. This may be accomplished by installing a power supervision relay at the end of the alarm power circuit. No internal backup battery.

9.6Alignment 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 until it locks in place.

9.7To 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 figure 6). To remove the alarm, use long nose pliers pull the pin out of the hole; it is now possible to

remove the alarm from the mounting plate. Test 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
