Battery
The smoke alarm will not function if the battery is missing, disconnected, dead, the
wrong type of battery is used or the battery is not installed correctly. The smoke
detector requires one standard 9V battery.
When the battery becomes weak, the smoke alarm will "beep" about once a
minute (the low battery warning). This low battery warning should last for 30 days,
but you should replace the battery immediately to continue your protection.
When the battery is removed from the alarm, the battery flag in the compartment
will pop up; therefore, the alarm cannot be installed to the mounting bracket
without a battery.
Only use the replacement battery recommended by the smoke detector
manufacturer. The smoke detector alarm may not operate properly with other
batteries. Never use a rechargeable battery as it may not provide a constant
charge. Never disconnect the battery to silence the alarm
