IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT

YOUR SMOKE ALARM

• Before installing your smoke alarm, you must read this entire

Owner’s Manual.

• Install a smoke alarm in each room and area of your home. See

“WHERE YOU SHOULD INSTALL YOUR SMOKE ALARMS.”

• Smoke alarms cannot give you an early warning of fire or smoke

unless you install, use and maintain them by following these

instructions.

• You must hear the alarm’s warning sound and quickly respond to it to

reduce the risk of damage, injury or death that may result from a fire.

• Your smoke alarm is packaged with the battery disconnected.

Connect it to the battery leads before mounting the smoke alarm.

• A smoke alarm will not work without a good battery installed correctly.

The smoke alarm must be tested when a new battery is installed and

every week after that.

• A smoke alarm that beeps about once per minute means the battery

is weak, and you need a new battery.

• A smoke alarm should never be used, in any case, for more than 10

years.

• Smoke alarms may not alert every household member every time.

There may be limiting circumstances where a household member

may not hear the alarm (e.g., outdoor or indoor noise, sound

sleepers, drug or alcohol usage, the hard of hearing, etc.). If you

suspect that this smoke alarm may not alert a household member,

install and maintain specialty smoke alarms. Current studies have

shown smoke alarms may not awaken all sleeping individuals, and

that it is the responsibility of individuals in the household that are

capable of assisting others to provide assistance to those who may

not be awakened by the alarm sound, or to those who may be

incapable of safely evacuating the area unassisted.

WHAT SMOKE ALARMS CAN DO

Smoke alarms can only HELP protect your home and family against loss

from a fire. The best protection is obtained by installing smoke alarms in

each room, and each other area of the home, making sure the people in

the home will be able to hear and respond to the alarm sound.

Your smoke alarm meets or exceeds the requirements for audibility, or

loudness, set by Underwriters’ Laboratories, Inc.

WARNING: SMOKE ALARMS MAY GIVE YOU A WARNING OF FIRE AND SMOKE, BUT ONLY

IF YOU INSTALL

, USE AND MAINTAIN THEM IN ACCORDANCE WITH THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

The ionization type alarms are generally more effective at detecting fast,

flaming fires which consume combustible materials rapidly and spread quickly.

Sources of these fires may include flammable liquids or paper burning in a

waste container. The photoelectric type alarms are generally more effective at

detecting slow, smoldering fires which smolder for hours before bursting into

flame. Sources of these fires may include cigarettes burning in couches or

bedding. However, both types of alarms are designed to provide adequate

detection of both types of fires. If you desire the benefits of both systems, you

should install smoke alarms that combine in one alarm both photoelectric and

ionization sensing technologies.
