If after this period particles of combustion are still present, the alarm will sound again. The Hush® feature can be used repeatedly until the air has been cleared of the condition causing the alarm. Pushing the Test button on the alarm will end the Hush® period. NOTE: Dense smoke will override the Hush® control feature and sound a continuous alarm. CAUTION: Before using the alarm Hush® feature, identify the source of the smoke and be certain a safe condition exists. O p e r a t i o n LED Indicators This alarm is equipped with red and green LED indicators, each with two modes of operation. Red LED - Flashing eve ry 30-40 seconds: Indicates that the smoke alarm is operating pro p e r l y . Red LED -Flashing Rapidly: When the smoke alarm senses particles of combustion and goes into alarm (constant pulsating sound), the red LED will flash rapidly (one flash per second). The rapid flashing LED and pulsating alarm will continue until the air is cleared. When interconnected, only the red LED’s of the alarms that are sensing smoke or are being tested will flash rapidly (originating alarms). All other units in the interconnect system will sound an alarm, but their red LED’s will NOT flash rapidly. G reen LED - Constantly On: Indicates that the unit is receiving 120 V AC power. G reen LED - Flashing: This unit features an “alarm memory” to indicate itself as an originating alarm (that sounded and triggered others in an interconnect system). Once the unit returns to silence after the occurrence of an alarm, a flashing green LED marks the unit as an originating alarm (Image 8). The flashing green LED remains until it is reset by pushing the Test button. 16 IMAGE 8 M a i n t e n a n c e Testing CAUTION: Due to the loudness (85 decibels) of the alarm, always stand an arms length away from the unit when testing. Test by pushing the Test button on the cover and hold it down for a minimum of 2 seconds. This will sound the alarm if all the electronic circuitry, horn and battery are working. If no alarm sounds, check the fuse or circuit breaker supplying power to the alarm circuit. If the alarm still does not sound, the unit has a defective battery or some other failure. DO NOT use an open flame to test your alarm, you could damage the alarm or ignite combustible materials and start a fire. Test the alarm weekly to ensure proper operation. Erratic or low sound coming from your alarm may indicate a defective alarm, and it should be returned for service (see page 25). Alarm Removal If the smoke alarm tamper resist feature has been activated, refer to the Alarm Tamper Resist Feature section for removal instructions. To remove the alarm from the mounting plate, rotate the alarm in the direction of the "OFF" arrow on the cover. To disconnect the AC Quick-Connect wire harness, squeeze the locking arms on the sides of the Quick Connector while pulling the connector away from the bottom of the alarm (see Image 5). Maintenance Battery Removal NOTE: If battery tamper resist feature has been activated it will need to be deactivated in order to change the battery. Refer to the Battery Tamper Resist Feature section for instructions. To replace or install the battery press down on the battery door and then release to allow the door to pop open. The battery can then be pulled out (Image 9). When installing a new battery, make sure the battery terminals are facing outwards as illustrated inside the battery door and that the polarity matches the markings printed. Completely press the battery door down into the alarm and release. The battery door will secure into the closed position. A missing or improperly installed battery will prevent the battery door from closing and result in improper alarm operation. 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. NOTE: Low/missing battery monitor circuit WILL cause the unit to chirp while replacing the battery. This function will cease once the new battery has been installed. To avoid this “chirp” the unit can be removed from the mounting plate and disconnected from the AC power when re p l a c i n g the battery, but it is not necessary. This smoke alarm has a convenient front-load battery feature that does not re q u i re disconnection for changing the battery. IMAGE 9 BATTERY DOOR OPERATION 17 18 Maintenance This smoke alarm uses a 9 V carbon zinc battery (alkaline and lithium batteries may also be used). A fresh battery should last for one year under normal operating conditions. Use only the following 9 volt batteries for replacement: Carbon-Zinc Type Eveready 216 or 1222 Gold Peak 1604P or 1604S Alkaline Type Energizer 522 Duracell MN1604 or MX1604 Gold Peak 1604A Lithium Type Ultralife U9VL-J These batteries can be purchased at your local retailer.
