V. TESTING AND MAINTENANCE
Testing
•Local Test. Test each combination alarm to be sure it is installed correctly and operating properly.
•Interconnect Test. Test all combination alarms in an interconnected system after installation.
•The Smart Button accurately tests all functions. DO NOT use an open flame to test this smoke alarm. You may ignite and damage the smoke alarm or your home.
•Test alarms weekly and upon returning from vacation or when no one has been in the household for several days.
•Use testing to learn to distinguish the difference between the smoke and CO alarm patterns.
Test all combination alarms weekly by doing the following:
•Make sure the BLUE and RED lights are blink- ing once per minute. This indicates the unit is functioning properly and is checking for hazardous smoke and CO levels.
•Check that the GREEN light is lit. A constant green light indicates the smoke and CO alarm is receiving 120V AC power. No GREEN light indicates no AC power or unit is operating on battery power.

The combination alarm will test each of its smoke and CO sensors and provide a series of audible and visual signals to let you know your unit is functioning correctly.
