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. Use only water to dampen the cloth, use of detergents or clean-
ers could damage the alarm.
After cleaning, test your alarm by using the test button. If cleaning does
not restore the alarm to normal operation, the alarm should be replaced.
• Never use detergent or other solvents to clean the unit.
• Avoid spraying air freshener, hair spray, or other aerosols near the
Smoke Alarm.
• Do not paint the unit. Paint will seal the vents and interfere with the
sensor's ability to detect smoke.
