Low Battery Condition: The red LED flash will be accompanied
by an audible chirp. Replace the battery
when this condition occurs.
Alarm Memory: This smoke alarm is equipped with an
alarm memory which pr
ovides a visual
indication when an alarm has been
activated. A steady on red LED indicates
the memory condition. The memory will
remain activated until it is reset by
pushing the test button.
In an interconnected installation only the memory of the originat-
ing alarm will be activated.
SMOKE SENSING CHAMBER OPERATION: This alarm will “chirp” if
any of the components in the smoke sensing chamber fail. This
chirp will occur between the flashes of the red LED indicator light.
(If the chirp occurs at the same time as the red LED flash, see sec-
tion 6 for low battery information).
WHEN UNITS ARE INTERCONNECTED, only the red LED of the
alarm “which senses the smoke” or “is being tested” (the originat-
ing unit) will flash rapidly. All other units in the interconnect system
will sound an alarm but their red LED’s will NOT flash rapidly.
TESTING: Test by pushing the test button on the cover and hold it
down for a minimum of 5 seconds. This will sound the alarm if the
electronic circuitry and horn and battery are working. In an inter-
connected installation all interconnected alarms should sound
when the test button on any one of the interconnected alarm is
pressed. If no alarm sounds, the unit has defective batteries or
other failure. DO NOT use an open flame to test your alarm, you
could damage the alarm or ignite combustible materials and start
a structure fire.
TEST THE ALARM WEEKLY TO ENSURE PROPER OPERATION. Erratic
or low sound coming from your alarm may indicate a defective
alarm, and it should be returned for service (see section 12).
NOTE: WEEKLY TESTING IS REQUIRED.
5. NUISANCE ALARMS
Smoke alarms are designed to minimize nuisance alarms. Cigarette
smoke will not normally set off the alarm, unless the smoke is
blown directly into the alarm. Combustion particles from cooking
may set off the alarm if the alarm is located close to the cooking
