After installation, TEST THE UNIT’S ELECTRONICS by press- ing and releasing the test/reset button. A series of beeps will sound, followed by the message “Fire! Fire!” then another two series of beeps and the message “WARNING! CARBON MONOXIDE!” followed by 4 additional short beeps.
Weekly testing is required! If at anytime it does not perform as described, verify power is connected correctly and that the battery doesn’t need replacing. Clean dust and other buildup off the unit. If it still doesn’t operate properly call the Consumer Hotline at 1 (800) 880 6788.
