When chirping begins during the next Day cycle, you
can temporarily silence End of Unit Life or Network Error
chirps by pressing the Test/Hush button. Low Battery
chirps cannot be silenced.
If a valid Night / Day cycle has not been established
because the unit is located in either a constantly dark or
lighted location, the chirps mentioned above will not be delayed at night. Moving the unit to a different
location might allow the unit to determine a valid Night / Day cycle.

If you know why the alarm is sounding, and you can verify that it is not a life threatening
situation, you can push the button on the initiating unit (green LED flashing every second) to silence the
alarm for 8-10 minutes. If the smoke is not too dense, that unit, and all interconnected units will silence.
After the Hush period, the smoke alarm will automatically reset and sound the alarm if particles of
®
combustion are still present. You can use Hush
causing the alarm.
