Installation Instructions

The interconnect sys- tem should not exceed the NFPA interconnect limit of 12 smoke alarms and/or 18 alarms total (smoke, CO, Smoke/ CO Combination, heat, etc.). This Smoke/CO combination alarm must be counted as a smoke alarm when determining the number of units on an interconnect line. With 18 alarms interconnected, it is still possible to interconnect up to a total of 6 remote signaling devices and /or relay modules (see page 16 for details on interconnecting Kidde devices).
•The maximum wire run distance between the first and last unit in an interconnected system is 1000 feet.
