Maintenance
Cleaning the Alarm
The alarm should be cleaned at least once a year.
• To clean your alarm, remove it from the mounting plate
as outlined in previous sections. You can clean the
alarm by using compressed air or a vacuum cleaner
hose with a soft brush attachment. Blow or vacuum
around the perimeter of the alarm to remove dust and
dirt. The outside of the alarm can be wiped with a
damp cloth (do not use a wet cloth to avoid water
entering the unit).
• After cleaning, reinstall your alarm and test your alarm
by using the Test/Hush 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.
Replacing the Alarm
It is recommended this alarm be replaced ten years from the
date of manufacture. This date has been provided on the
product label which is located on the back of the alarm.
