MAINTENANCE
CLEANING YOUR ALARM
YOUR ALARM SHOULD BE VACUUMED ONCE A MONTH
You will need to follow the instructions in Installation Section to remove your alarm
for maintenance.
To clean your alarm, remove it from the mounting bracket as outlined in the
beginning of this section. You can clean the interior of your alarm (sensing chamber)
by using compressed air or a vacuum cleaner hose and blowing or vacuuming through
the openings around the perimeter of the alarm. The outside of the alarm can be
wiped with a damp cloth.
After cleaning, reinstall your alarm and test your alarm by using the test button. If
cleaning does not restore the alarm to normal operation the alarm should be replaced.
Do not paint the unit. Paint will seal the vents and interfere with the sensor's ability to
detect smoke. Never attempt to disassemble the unit or clean inside. This action will
void your warranty.
Alarm Removal
Refer to the Alarm Tamper Resist Feature section for removal instructions.
To remove the alarm from the mounting plate, rotate the alarm anti-clockwise in the
direction of the "OFF" arrow on the cover.
WARNING: Do not attempt to open the alarm for any reason!
