Operating/Installation Instructions
C. How to Install:
Remove mounting plate from the back of the unit by holding the rim of
the mounting plate and twisting counterclockwise (left). Seven (7) years
after initial power up, this unit will "chirp" every 30 seconds to indicate
that it is time to replace the alarm. After seven (7) years, the device may
no longer detect carbon monoxide accurately and should be replaced
immediately. On the product label, which is located on the back of the
alarm, there is a location that has 'Replace by' printed on it. Write the
replace-by date on the label. The date written on the label should be seven
(7) years after the date the unit is initially powered up.
Hold the mounting plate against the selected installation location (wall or
ceiling) and mark the centre of the holes with a pencil. To ensure aesthetic
alignment of the alarm with the hallway, or wall, the "A" line on the
mounting plate must be parallel with the hallway when ceiling mounting,
or horizontal when wall mounting. Drill a hole through the pencil marks
and use the enclosed screws and anchors to secure (use 5mm drill bit for
anchor holes). Align the Smoke/CO Alarm with the mounting plate and
rotate clockwise (right) until the unit is aligned.
Two labels are included with your alarm. They have important
information on what to do in case of an alarm. Add the phone number of
your emergency service provider in the space provided. Place one label
next to the alarm atfer it is mounted, and one label near a fresh air source
such as a door or window.
