(4) USAGE, OPERATION AND OPERATING MODES
This Smoke/CO Detector CAN ONLY BE interconnected with other SimpliSafe
alarms by connecting it to a SimpliSafe Base Station as specified in the
Compatible Equipment Table below. This Smoke/CO Detector is not intended
to be connected to any non-SimpliSafe devices or systems and you should
not attempt to do so. Attempting to connect the Smoke/CO Detector to non-
SimpliSafe devices or systems may result in nuisance alarms, failure to alarm
or damage to one or all of the devices in the non-SimpliSafe system.

A. Normal Operation Testing
Before you test the Smoke/CO detector, make sure the detector does not
have low batteries (Pg 19).
If the Smoke/CO detector has low batteries, it will fail the self-test. Test your
Smoke/CO Detector weekly by pressing the test button (the white button on
the front of the sensor) for 10 seconds. The sensor's siren will sound (3 beeps,
pause, 4 beeps, pause, 4 beeps) and the light will flash at similar intervals.

If this detector is paired to a Base Station, the Base Station will also sound
during this test if no issues are found.
If the Smoke/CO Detector and Base Station do not sound, the detector either
has a low battery, or the detector is malfunctioning. Replace the batteries in
the detector, and repeat the test.
This is the only way to make sure that the Smoke/CO Detector unit is
working properly. If the unit fails to test properly with new batteries, have it
replaced immediately.
CAUTION: Continuous exposure to the high sound level of this alarm over
an extended period of time may cause hearing loss.
WARNING: Never use an open flame of any kind to test your detector.
You may damage it as well as your home. The built-in test switch accurately
tests all functions as required by Underwriters' Laboratories.
WARNING: When you are not testing the unit and the alarm siren sounds,
the detector is a warning of a possible serious situation, which requires your
immediate attention.
Go/No-Go Field Test: Please use Home Safeguard Model 25S UL Listed
aerosol Smoke/CO detector tester, following the instructions listed on the
canister.
B. Silence Feature
Press the "Test/Silence" button (the white button on the front of the
detector) to temporarily quiet an alarm for up to 10 minutes. If smoke is still
present around the Smoke/CO Detector after 10 minutes of silence, the unit
will re-alarm.
