TESTING
TEST THE ALARM WEEKL
Y TO ENSURE PROPER OPERATION.
When testing, ensure that all units activate in response to a push to test from
another unit. This will verify that changes in your environment (i.e. moved furni-
ture, addition of electronic appliances) have not adversely effected the operation
of your Wireless system.
Remote Push To Test: Test your Kidde Wireless alarm system by activating the test
button on any Kidde Wireless alarm for a minimum of 5 seconds, or until all of
the interconnected alarms sound. When the other alarms respond, this verifies
that both the alarms and the interconnect system are functioning properly.
It may take up to 12 seconds for your Wireless interconnected alarms to
enter alarm mode in response to a remote push to test.
If the alarm does not sound, check the fuse or circuit breaker supplying power
to the alarm circuit. If the alarm still does not sound, the unit may have defec-
tive batteries or other failure and you should call Kidde customer service at 1-
800-880-6788. If other interconnected alarms do not produce an alarm signal,
see the trouble-shooting guide in section 12.
DO NOT use an open flame to test your alarm; you could damage the alarm or
ignite combustible materials and start a structure fire.
Erratic or low sound coming from your alarm may indicate a defective alarm,
and it should be returned for service (see Section 13).
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 area. Large quantities of combustible particles are
generated from spills or when broiling. Using the fan on a range hood which
vents to the outside (non-recirculating type) will also help remove these com-
bustible products from the kitchen.
