nifying that the alarm sensed a smoke or CO hazard.

Tamper Resist Features
To make your smoke/CO alarm tamper resistant, two
tamper resist features have been provided. The first is used
to discourage removal of the alarm while the second is for
the battery. To activate the mounting bracket tamper resist
feature break off the four posts in the square holes in the
trim ring (see figure 5A). When the posts are broken off,
the tamper resist tab on the base is allowed to engage the
mounting bracket. Rotate the alarm onto the mounting
bracket until you hear the tamper resist tab snap into place,
locking the alarm on the mounting bracket. Using the
tamper resist feature will help deter children and others
from removing the alarm from bracket.
NOTE: To remove the alarm when the tamper resist tab is
engaged, press down on the tamper resist tab, and rotate
the alarm off of the bracket (see figure 5B).
