TAMPER RESIST FEATURE

Battery Carrier Tamper Resist Feature
This alarm has a battery carrier tamper resist feature, which helps prevent the
battery carrier from being opened. This feature helps prevent the removal of the
battery from this device (which will render the device inoperative).
To activate the battery carrier tamper resist feature,
remove the unit from the trim plate and locate the
small cut-out in the middle of the product label on the
back of the unit. With a small screwdriver, or similar
tool, slide the switch towards the top of the label (see
figure 6). The tamper resist feature is now active and
the battery carrier can not be opened until the tamper
resist feature is deactivated.
NOTE: Before activating the battery carrier tamper resist
feature, make sure a fresh battery is installed in the unit and that the battery
carrier is properly closed. If the battery carrier tamper resist feature is activated
while the battery carrier is open, the battery carrier will not close and the unit
will be inoperable.
When wall mounting,
the "A" line should be
horizontal.
