Operating and Installation Instructions

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 8-11, and wiring the AC QUICK CONNECT harness as described in the WIRING INSTRUCTIONS, attach the mounting bracket to the elec- trical 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 CONNEC- TOR 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

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 func- tion allows for aesthetic alignment). Note: The alarm will mount to the bracket in 4 positions (every 90 degrees).

7.Turn on the AC power. The green AC Power On Indicator should be lit when the alarm is operating from AC power.

8.Two labels are included with your alarm. They have impor- tant information on what to do in case of an alarm. Add the phone number of your emergency service provider (Fire Department or 911) in the space provided. Place one label next to the alarm after it is mounted, and one label near a fresh air source such as a door or window.
