Red led indicator
The red LED, as the ALARM indicator, is
featured with the detector. It can be
seen through the test button on the
cover of the detector. When red LED
flashes once 32 seconds, it indicates
the detector under normal operation.
When smoke detector senses smoke
and simultaneously sounds an au-
dible alarm, the red LED will flash very
frequently, once seconds.
Testing your smoke detectors
Test the detector weekly by pushing firmly on the test button with your finger
until the horn sounds. Testing method may take up to 5 seconds to sound
the alarm horn. These are only ways to be sure that detector is working
correctly. If the detector fails to test properly, have it repaired or replaced
immediately.
Warning : Never use an open flame to test your detector. You may set fire to
damage the detector, as well as your home. The built-in test switch accura-
tely tests all detector functions.

Warning : This smoke detector comes with cover latches
that will prevent the smoke detector cover from closing if
battery is not installed. This tells you that the smoke detector
will not work until a new battery is properly installed. The
battery is purposely positioned WRONGLY in the factory to
keep it fresh until installation. It must be re-positioned cor-
rectly to provide DC power.
Warning : When the detector battery first makes contact
with the detector, the alarm horn may sound for one se-
cond. This means normal and indicates that the battery
is positioned properly. Close cover, then press the test
button, holding it down for about 5 seconds until the horn
sounds. The horn should sound a loud, pulsating alarm.
This means the unit is working properly.
