FOLLOW THESE SIMPLE STEPS!

If you want to lock the battery drawer, or lock the Smoke Alarm to the mounting bracket, please read the “Optional Locking Features” section before you begin installation.

1.Hold base firmly and twist the mounting bracket counterclockwise to separate it from the base.

2.Hold the mounting bracket against the ceiling (or wall) so the vertical mounting slot is aligned in the 12 o’clock position and trace around the inside of the mounting slots (vertical and horizontal mounting).

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 the center of the oval outlines you traced.

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.Line the mounting bracket up

over the plastic screw anchors.

7. Screw the mounting bracket to the ceiling or wall through the mounting slots using the two screws provided.

8.Attach the Smoke Alarm to the mounting bracket. Line up the guides on the alarm’s base with the guides on the mounting bracket. When guides are lined up, turn the base clockwise (right) until it snaps into place.

NOTE: Once the Smoke Alarm is snapped onto the mounting bracket, you can rotate the Smoke Alarm to adjust the align- ment.

9.Test the Smoke Alarm. See “Weekly Testing.”
