every forty-five (45) seconds until the batteries are replaced. The low battery trouble
chirps can be silenced for twenty-four (24) hours by pressing the TEST/SILENCE button.

See the Test Your System section for instructions concerning testing your Smoke
Detector(s).

Maintaining the Smoke Detector (SW-ATT-SMKT)

The Smoke Detectors (SW-ATT-SMKT) are designed for easy field service and
maintenance. When installed and used properly, they require minimal maintenance. To
ensure optimum performance, test your unit weekly. Clean the cover with a dry or damp
(water) cloth to keep it free from dust and dirt. If the unit requires maintenance, it
extinguishes its LIGHT and stops sending supervisory signals to the alarm DLC-100. If
the DLC-100 indicates supervisory trouble for the smoke alarm, perform the sensitivity
test and follow the recommended actions.
