Step 3Mounting Instructions:
CAUTION: YOUR SMOKE/CO ALARM IS SEALED AND THE
COVER IS NOT REMOVABLE!
1. To help identify the date to replace the unit, a label has been
affixed to the side of the alarm. Write the “Replace by” date (7
years from initial power up) in permanent marker on the label.
See Alarm Replacement section for additional information.
2. Remove the mounting bracket from the back of the alarm by
holding the mounting bracket and twisting the alarm in the
direction indicated by the “OFF”arrow on the alarm cover.
3. After selecting the proper location for your Smoke/CO Alarm,
as described on Pages 8-10, and wiring the AC QUICK
CONNECT harness as described in the WIRING
INSTRUCTIONS, attach the mounting bracket to the electrical
box. To ensure aesthetic alignment of the alarm with the
hallway, or wall, the “A” line on the mounting bracket must
be parallel with the hallway when ceiling mounted, or
horizontal when wall mounted.
4. Pull the AC QUICK CONNECTOR
through the center hole in the
mounting bracket and secure
the bracket, making sure that
the mounting screws are
positioned in the small ends of
the keyholes before tightening
the screws.
5. Plug the AC QUICK CONNECTOR
into the back of the alarm (see
figure 4), making sure that the
locks on the connector snap into place. Then push the excess
wire back into the electrical box through the hole in the center
of the mounting bracket.
6. Install the alarm on the mounting bracket and rotate the
alarm in the direction of the “ON” arrow on the cover until
the alarm ratchets into place (this ratcheting function allows
for aesthetic alignment). Note: The alarm will mount to the
bracket in 4 positions (every 90 degrees). 13
