Kidde I12040 Questions and Answers


#1 How to wire wiring diagram?

The wiring harness attaches to the house wiring. Black to black, white to white and red to red.

#2 Can the i12040 replace the i12020? The plug looks the same

The i12040 is the direct replacement. All kidde hardwired units have the same plug

#3 Can it be used with AC only?

This unit has to be used with the back up battery. The alarm is not able to tell the difference between a missing battery and a dead one. It will chirp for low battery without a battery in it.

#4 This is a sealed unit with battery back up. How do I replace the battery?

Basically you will need to detach the detector from its ceiling mountiing ring by turning the dector clockwise 1/4 turn. It will disconnect physically from the mounting ing but the detector will still be connected to the electrical wires coming out of the ceiling from with the diameter of the ring. It may be best to disconnect the wires as well, in the manner explained in the User's Guide. Either way, when you turn the detector over, you will discover a battery access cover which flips open enabling you to insert a fresh 9 volt battery.
