scribed during the test, replace it immediately.

for at least 5 seconds. If still no alarm, turn off
AC Power at the circuit breaker or fuse box
and disconnect the alarm from the mounting
bracket and make sure the connector plug
is securely attached on alarms that did
not sound. If still no alarm, have licensed
electrician make sure the yellow wire is not
mistakenly or accidentally connected to the
white (neutral) wire. NOTE: In an intercon-
nected system containing a CO alarm, the
CO alarm will not respond to the smoke alarm
signal and the smoke alarm will not respond to

tions if an alarm sounds by calling an Emer-
gency Service and getting out of the home.
