This smoke alarm uses a 9V carbon backup battery (alkaline and lithium batteries
may also be used). A fresh battery should last for one year under normal operat-
ing conditions.
This alarm has a low/missing battery monitor circuit which will cause the alarm
to "chirp" approximately every 30-40 seconds for a minimum of seven (7) days
when the battery gets low. Replace the battery when this condition occurs.
USE ONLY THE FOLLOWING 9 VOLT BATTERIES FOR SMOKE ALARM
REPLACEMENT.
Carbon-zinc type
Alkaline type
Lithium type
NOTE: WEEKLY TESTING IS REQUIRED!
WARNING! BE SURE TO FOLLOW BATTERY INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
PRINTED ON THE INSIDE OF THE BATTERY DOOR AND USE ONLY THE
BATTERIES SPECIFIED. USE OF DIFFERENT BATTERIES MAY HAVE A DETRI-
MENTAL EFFECT ON THE SMOKE ALARM.
