Battery Replacement

Replace batteries with one of the following approved brands: Duracell MN1500, MX1500 or Energizer E91. These batteries can be purchased at your local retailer.

WARNING! Use only the batteries specified. Use of different batteries may have a detrimental effect on the Smoke/CO alarm. A good safety measure is to replace the batteries twice a year, at the same time you change your clocks for daylight saving time.

Alarm Replacement

Seven years after initial power-up, this unit will “chirp” every 30 seconds to indicate that it is time to replace the alarm. A label has been provided on the side of the alarm that has “Replace by” printed on it. Write the replace by date on the label. The date written on the label should be after seven (7) years of cumulative power.

REPLACE IMMEDIATELY! IT WILL NOT DETECT CO IN THIS CONDITION.
