    For maximum protection, Kidde recom- mends that both Ionization and Photoelectric alarms be installed. • A battery powered alarm must have a battery of the specified type, in good condition and installed properly. • AC powered alarms (without battery backup) will not operate if the AC power has been cut off, such as by an electrical fire or an open fuse.
  • Page 12: What To Do When The Alarm Sounds

    • Familiarize everyone with the sound of the smoke alarm and train them to leave your home when they hear it. • Practice a fire drill at least every six months, including fire drills at night. Ensure that small children hear the alarm and wake when it sounds.

The radioactive element is safely contained in the chamber and requires no adjustments or maintenance. This smoke alarm meets or exceeds all government standards.
