3)Ionization Smoke Alarm with Smart HUSHTM Control to temporarily silence nuisance alarms.

This alarm detects products of combustion using the ionization technique. It contains 0.9 microcurie of Americium 241, a radioactive material (see Section 9). Distributed under U.S. NRC License No. 32-23858-01E. Manufactured in compliance with U.S. NRC safety criteria in 10 CFR 32.27. The purchaser is exempt from any regulatory requirements. Do not try to repair the smoke alarm yourself. Refer to the instructions in Section 13 for service.

WARNING! Ionization sensing alarms may detect invisible fire particles (asso- ciated with fast flaming fires) sooner than photoelectric alarms. Photoelectric sensing alarms may detect visible fire particles (associated with slow smolder- ing fires) sooner than ionization alarms. Home fires develop in different ways and are often unpredictable. For maximum protection, Kidde recom- mends that both Ionization and Photoelectric alarms be installed.

WARNING! REMOVAL OF THE SMOKE ALARM BATTERIES WILL RENDER THE SMOKE ALARM INOPERATIVE.

IMPORTANT! READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE INSTALLATION AND KEEP THIS USER’S GUIDE NEAR THE ALARM FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
