Description
The Kidde 0976 Smoke Alarm is an ionization, battery
operated unit that provides users with an easy to oper-
ate front load battery door, making replacing the battery
simple and convenient. The front load battery door allows
users to change batteries without having to remove the
smoke alarm from the mounting bracket. It's unique bat-
tery compartment design will not close if the battery is
installed incorrectly, leaving you assured the batteries are
properly installed. A locking feature, located on the back
of the alarm allows the battery door to lock if there is a
concern of theft or tampering. Along with its other premi-
um features such as Hush
, that silences nuisance alarms,
®
this product was designed to help warn families from
the dangers of smoke and fire hazards while providing
its users with easy to use features to keep a maintained
smoke alarm with working battery.
This alarm uses ionization sensing technology. Ionization
sensing alarms may detect invisible fire particles
(associated with flaming fires) sooner than photoelectric
alarms. Photoelectric sensing alarms may detect visible
particles (associated with smoldering fires) sooner than
ionization alarms.
Kidde strongly recommends that both ionization
and photoelectric smoke alarms be installed to help
insure maximum detection of the various types of fire
that can occur within the home.
