Mounting Instructions:
CAUTION: YOUR SMOKE/CO ALARM IS SEALED AND THE
COVER IS NOT REMOVABLE!
1.To help identify the date to replace the unit, a label has been
affixed to the side of the alarm. Write the “Replace by” date (7
years from initial power up) in permanent marker on the label.
See Alarm Replacement section for additional information.
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 8-10, and wiring the AC QUICK CON-
NECT harness as described in the WIRING INSTRUCTIONS,
attach the mounting bracket to the electrical 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 posi-
tioned 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 function allows
for aesthetic alignment). Note: The alarm will mount to the
bracket in 4 positions (every 90 degrees).
