6. USING TAMPER RESIST LOCKING PIN: To make your smoke
alarm tamper resistant, a locking pin has been provided in the

children and others from removing the alarm from the mounting
plate. To use the pin, insert it into the hole in the side of the
alarm after the alarm has been installed on the mounting plate
(see figure 8).

down the test button for at least 5 seconds. This should sound
