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
through the hole in the center
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 win
dow.
