If any form of battery failure is detected the red LED light will
flash and the unit will “chirp” one time, followed by the
warning message “LOW BATTERY”. This cycle will occur once
every minute for the first hour. After the first hour, the red
LED light will continue flashing accompanied by the chirp
only sound every 60 seconds. The voice message “LOW
BATTERY” will sound once every fifteen minutes during the
chirp only cycle, and will continue for at least seven days.
If the red LED light flashes along with a chirp every 30
seconds, and is not followed by the voice message
“LOW BATTERY” as described above, your unit has
malfunctioned. Call our toll free Consumer Hotline at 1-
800-880-6788 for instructions on how to return the unit.
CAUTION: YOUR SMOKE/CO ALARM IS SEALED AND
THE COVER IS NOT REMOVABLE!
Note: If battery carrier tamper resist feature has been acti-
vated it will need to be deactivated in order to change the
battery. Refer to section 3 “Battery Carrier Tamper Resist
Feature” for instructions.
To replace or install the batteries press on the battery carri-
er and then release to allow the carrier to pop open. The
battery can then be pulled out of the carrier. When
installing a new battery into the carrier, make sure the bat-
tery terminals are exposed and that the polarity matches
the markings printed on the battery carrier. Completely
press the battery carrier down into the alarm and release,
the battery carrier will lock into the closed position.
A missing or improperly installed battery will prevent the
battery carrier from closing and result in improper alarm
operation.
This smoke alarm uses a 9V battery. A fresh battery should
last for one year under normal operating conditions.
Replace batteries with one of the following approved
brands: Duracell MN1604, MX1604, Energizer 522 and
Gold Peak 1604A. These batteries can be purchased at
your local retailer.
WARNING! Use only the batteries specified. Use of differ-
ent batteries may have a detrimental effect on the
Smoke/CO alarm. A good safety measure is to replace the
battery at least once a year, or at the same time you
change your clocks for daylight saving time.
