INTRODUCTION

Thank you for choosing First Alert for your Safety needs. You have purchased a state of the art alarm designed to provide you with an early warning. Please take time to read this

manual and make this alarm is an integral part of your family’s safety plan.

All First Alert® and BRK® Smoke Alarms conform to regulatory requirements, including UL217 and are designed to detect particles of combustion. Smoke particles of

varying number and size are produced in all fires.

Ionization technology is generally more sensitive than photoelectric technology at detecting small particles, which tend to be produced in greater amounts by flaming fires,

which consume combustible materials rapidly and spread quickly. Sources of these fires may include paper burning in a wastebasket, or a grease fire in the kitchen.

Photoelectric technology is generally more sensitive than ionization technology at detecting large particles, which tend to be produced in greater amounts by smoldering fires,

which may smolder for hours before bursting into flame. Sources of these fires may include cigarettes burning in couches or bedding.

For maximum protection, use both types of Smoke Alarms on each level and in every bedroom of your home.

BEFORE YOU INSTALL THIS SMOKE ALARM

IMPORTANT! Read “Recommended Locations for Smoke Alarms” and “Locations to Avoid for Smoke Alarms” before beginning. This unit monitors the air, and when smoke reaches

its sensing chamber, it alarms. It can give you more time to escape before fire spreads. This unit can ONLY give an early warning of developing fires if it is installed, maintained and

located where smoke can reach it, and where all residents can hear it, as described in this manual. This unit will not sense gas, heat, or flame. It cannot prevent or extinguish fires.

Understand The Different Type of Smoke Alarms - Battery powered or electrical? Different Smoke Alarms provide different types of protection. See “About Smoke Alarms” for

details.

Know Where To Install Your Smoke Alarms - Fire Safety Professionals recommend at least one Smoke Alarm on every level of your home, in every bedroom, and in every bedroom

hallway or separate sleeping area. See “Recommended Locations For Smoke Alarms” and “Locations To Avoid For Smoke Alarms” for details.

Know What Smoke Alarms Can and Can’t Do - A Smoke Alarm can help alert you to fire, giving you precious time to escape. It can only sound an alarm once smoke reaches the

sensor. See “Limitations of Smoke Alarms” for details.

Check Your Local Building Codes - This Smoke Alarm is designed to be used in a typical single-family home. It alone will not meet requirements for boarding houses, apartment

buildings, hotels or motels. See “Special Compliance Considerations” for details.

RECOMMENDED LOCATIONS FOR SMOKE ALARMS

Installing Smoke Alarms in Single-Family Residences

The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), recommends one Smoke Alarm on every floor, in every sleeping area,

and in every bedroom. In new construction, the Smoke Alarms must be AC powered and interconnected. See “Agency

Placement Recommendations” for details. For additional coverage, it is recommended that you install a Smoke Alarm in all

rooms, halls, storage areas, finished attics, and basements, where temperatures normally remain between 40˚ F (4.4˚ C)

and 100˚ F (37.8˚ C). Make sure no door or other obstruction could keep smoke from reaching the Smoke Alarms.

More specifically, install Smoke Alarms:

• On every level of your home, including finished attics and basements.

• Inside every bedroom, especially if people sleep with the door partly or completely closed.

• In the hall near every sleeping area. If your home has multiple sleeping areas, install a unit in each. If a hall is more

than 40 feet long (12 meters), install a unit at each end.

• At the top of the first-to-second floor stairway, and at the bottom of the basement stairway.

Specific requirements for Smoke Alarm installation vary from state to state and from region to region. Check with your local Fire Department for current

requirements in your area. It is recommended AC or AC/DC units be interconnected for added protection.

HOW TO INSTALL THIS SMOKE ALARM - FOLLOW THESE SIMPLE STEPS!

1. Hold the mounting bracket against the ceiling (or wall) so

the two clusters of universal mounting holes are aligned

approximately at the 9:00 and 3:00 o’clock positions. See

image. Choose one of the three sets of holes shown, A, B or

C (see image) and trace around one of the sets. Be sure to

choose a top and bottom slot on opposite sides so you can

rotate the Universal Mounting Bracket into position later. This

will make it easier in the future the remove the mounting

bracket without completely removing the screws.

Do not install this Smoke

Alarm over an existing electrical box. Only AC powered

units are intended for installation over electrical boxes.

2. Put the unit where it won’t get covered with dust when you drill the mounting holes.

3. Using a 3/16” (5 mm) drill bit, drill a hole through the center of the oval outlines you traced.

4. Insert the plastic screw anchors (in the plastic bag with screws) into the holes. Tap the screw anchors gently with a hammer, if necessary, until they are flush with the ceiling or

wall.

5. Install the screws but do not tighten completely. Attach the mounting bracket by aligning the screws in the open portion of the universal mounting slots and rotating the bracket

into place. Tighten the screws until they are snug to secure the bracket. Do not over tighten.

6. Activating the battery. Mount alarm to mounting bracket to activate. Once unit is activated, it cannot be turned off.

NOTE: After you activate the battery, the power indicator light may flash and unit will chirp. (If the unit alarms, the light will

blink rapidly, and the horn will repeatedly sound 3 beeps, pause, 3 beeps.) Once the Smoke Alarm is on the bracket, you can

rotate the Alarm to adjust the alignment.

7. Test the Smoke Alarm. See “Weekly Testing.”

8. After 10 years of operation or Low Battery warning, deactivate the Smoke Alarm: Insert a tool below edge where shown and break tab. Then

slide activation switch to deactivate mode.

NOTE: At end of life or low battery indication (chirp): unit must be put into deactivation mode to deactivate remaining stored energy in battery. Unit will no longer

function once put into this mode. Unit will resist re-mounting.

The locking feature is designed to discourage unauthorized removal of the Alarm. It is not necessary to activate the locks in single-family households where unauthorized

battery or Alarm removal is not a concern.

Tools you will need: • Needle-nose pliers or utility knife • Standard Flathead screwdriver.

The locking feature uses locking pins, which are molded into the mounting bracket. Using needle-nose pliers or a utility knife, remove one or both pins from the mounting bracket.

To permanently remove either lock, insert a flathead screwdriver between the locking pin and the lock, and pry the pin out of the lock.

TO LOCK THE ALARM ONTO MOUNTING BRACKET

pin’s head will fit into a notch on the bracket.

TO UNLOCK THE MOUNTING BRACKET

1. Insert a flathead screwdriver between the mounting bracket pin and the mounting bracket.

2. Pry the Smoke Alarm away from the bracket by turning both the screwdriver and the Smoke Alarm

counterclockwise (left) at the same time.

WEEKLY TESTING

• NEVER use an open flame of any kind to test this unit. You might accidentally damage or set fire to the unit or to your

home. The built in test switch accurately tests the unit’s operation as required by Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. (UL).

• If the Alarm ever fails to test properly, replace it immediately. Products under warranty may be returned to the

manufacturer

for replacement. See “Limited Warranty” at the end of this manual.

DO NOT stand close to the Alarm when the horn is sounding. Exposure at close range may be harmful to your hearing. When

testing, step away when horn starts sounding. It is important to test this unit every week to make sure it is working properly.

Using the test button is the recommended way to test this Smoke Alarm.

Press and hold the Test/Silence button on the cover of the unit until the alarm sounds (the unit may continue to alarm for a few seconds

after you release the button). If it does not alarm, make sure the unit is receiving power and test it again. If it still does not alarm, replace

it immediately.

During testing, you will hear a loud, repeating horn pattern: 3 beeps, pause, 3 beeps, pause. LED flashes once every second.
