If The Outlet Is Mounted Horizontally (Sideways); Wall Mounted Alarm - Kidde KN-COPP-3-RC User Manual

4. Installation Instructions

If the outlet is mounted horizontally (sideways):

If you are going to use your alarm as a direct plug and you are going to
plug in to an outlet that is mounted
horizontally (sideways), you will need to rotate
the adapter 90˚.
To rotate the adapter:
1. Remove back door by sliding it down and
out.
2. Spread adapter thumb releases out and
carefully turn alarm over. This will allow
adapter to slide out.
3. Lift the adapter completely out of the alarm
and rotate the adapter 90˚ to the right
(clockwise). Snap it firmly back into place.
4. Carefully replace the back door. Insure the
"latches" on all four corners of the door are
lined up, then press the door securely into place.
5. Plug the alarm into an unswitched wall socket.

Wall Mounted Alarm

Installation tips for power cord models:
The power cord option provides more
flexibility in mounting locations and allows the
alarm to be easily installed at eye level.
For a wall-mounted unit, you will need to pull
out the removable adapter and power cord.
To install:
1. Follow steps 1 through 4 in the previous
section under "To Rotate the Adapter."
2. With the adapter removed, pull the power
cord out of the cord recess, remove the
twist tie, and extend the power cord.
3. With the power cord extended, press the
last few inches of the power cord back into
the cord recess. Gently pull the cord at the
bottom of the cord recess until the cord becomes taught and lays flat
in cord recess.
