5. Installation / Mounting Instructions
OPTION 2:
Mounting on Other Surfaces
1. Choose a mounting location (wall
or ceiling) and using the mounting
plate provided as a template, mark
three-hole locations.
2. Install the three provided screws
through the mounting plate and
tighten. DO NOT over-tighten
screws. (If mounting in plasterboard
or similar surface, drill 3/16"
holes and use the plastic anchors
provided.) Anchors are not required
for mounting on hard surfaces such
as wood.
Attaching And Activating The Alarm
This model is equipped with a feature that automatically activates the
alarm when the alarm is attached to the mounting plate for the first
time. Once activated, the battery will supply power to the alarm for the
life of the alarm (10 years) under normal conditions.
Align the alarm with the mounting plate and rotate clockwise (right)
approximately 45 degrees until the unit stops and clicks into place.
DO NOT over-tighten. If unit needs to be re-aligned, rotate the alarm
counter clockwise, remove and rotate to desired alignment. NOTE: The
alarm will mount to the plate in three (3) positions (every 120 degrees).
You will know power has been supplied when alarm briefly chirps.
Unit will remain on until unit is deactivated (turned off) by the user at
alarm's end of life. Do not over tighten the alarm as damage to alarm or
mounting surface may occur.
The alarm is now activated! This alarm will issue a voice prompt at
activation asking the user to press the test button. After installation/
activation, test your alarm as described in Operation and Testing section.
Warning: Failure to properly install and activate this alarm
will prevent proper operation of this alarm and will
prevent its response to fire hazards.
