All First Alert® and BRK® Smoke Alarms conform to regulatory requirements,

including UL217 and are designed to detect part icles 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. Note: Model 7030BSL includes photoelectric technology only.

FIRE SAFETY TIPS

Follow safety rules and prevent hazardous situations: 1) Use smoking materials properly. Never

smoke in bed. 2) Keep matches or lighters away from children; 3) Store flammable materials in

proper containers; 4) Keep electrical appliances in good condition and don’t overload electrical

circuits; 5) Keep stoves, barbecue grills, fireplaces and chimneys grease- and debris-free; 6)

Never leave anything cooking on the stove unattended; 7) Keep portable heaters and open

flames, like candles, away from flammable materials; 8) Don’t let rubbish accumulate.

Keep alarms clean, and test them weekly. Replace alarms immediately if they are not working

properly. Smoke Alarms that do not work cannot alert you to a fire. Keep at least one working

fire extinguisher on every floor, and an additional one in the kitchen. Have fire escape ladders

or other reliable means of escape from an upper floor in case stairs are blocked.

BEFORE YOU INSTALL THIS SMOKE/CARBON

MONOXIDE AND STROBE LIGHT COMBO ALARM

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 t o 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/see it , as described in this

manual. This unit will not sense gas, heat , or flame. It cannot prevent or ext inguish fires.

UNDERSTAND THE DIFFERENT T YPE 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.

ELECT RICAL SHOCK HAZARD. Turn off the power t o t he area where t he Smoke

Alarm is inst alled before r emoving it from the mounting bracket. Failure to turn

off the power first may r esult in serious electrical shock, injury or death.

• Installation of this unit must conform t o the elect rical codes in your area; Art icles

210 and 300, 3(B) of NFPA 70 (NEC), NFPA 72, NFPA101; SBC (SBCCI); UBC

(ICBO); NBC (BOCA); OTFDC (CABO) and any other local or building codes that

may apply. Wiring and installation must be performed by a licensed electrician.

Failur e to follow t hese guidelines may result in injury or propert y damage.

• 60Hz This unit must be powered by a 24-hour, 120VAC pur e sine wave

circuit. Be sure the circuit cannot be t urned of f by a swit ch, dimmer, or

ground fault cir cuit interr upter. Failure t o connect t his unit t o a 24-hour

circuit may prevent it from providing constant protection.

• This Alarm must have AC or battery power to operate. If the AC power fails,

bat tery back-up will allow the alarm to sound for at least 4 minutes. If AC power

fails and the battery is weak, protection should last for at least 7 days. If AC

power f ails and the battery is dead or missing, the alarm cannot operate.

• Never disconnect the power from an AC powered unit to st op an unwant ed

alarm. Doing so will disable the unit and remove your protection. In the

case of a true unwanted alarm open a window or fan the smoke away

fr om t he unit . The alarm will reset automatically when it ret urns to normal

operation. Never remove the batt eries from a battery operated unit to stop

an unwanted alarm (caused by cooking smoke, etc.). Instead open a window

or fan t he smoke away f rom the unit. The alarm will reset automatically.

• This product is intended for use in ordinary indoor areas. It is not designed

to measure compliance with commercial and industrial standards.

• Connect this unit ONLY to other compatible units. See “How To Install This Alarm” for

• Connect the black wire on the power connector to the hot wire in the junction box.

• Tuck the orange wire inside the junction box. It is used for interconnect only.

INTERCONNECTED UNITS ONLY:

Strip off about 1/2” (12 mm) of t he plastic coat ing on

the orange wire on the power connector.

• Connect the white wire on the power connector to the neutral wire in the j unction box.

• Connect the black wire on the power connector to the hot wire in the junction box.

• Connect the orange wire on the power connector to the interconnect

wire in the junction box. Repeat for each unit you are interconnecting.

Never connect the hot or neutral wires in the junction box to the orange

interconnect wire. Never cross hot and neutral wires between Alarms.

3. Plug the power connector into the back of the Alarm.

4. Position the base of the Alarm over the mounting bracket and turn. T he Alarm can be

positioned over the bracket every 90°. Turn the Alarm clockwise (right) until the unit locks into

place. If t his is the first t ime mounting the alarm, an activation chirp will be heard.

5. Check all connections.

Improper wiring of the power connector or the wiring leading to the power connector

will cause damage to the Alarm and may lead to a non-functioning Alarm.

STAND-ALONE ALARM ONLY:

• If you are only installing one Alarm, restore power to the junction box.

INTERCONNECTED ALARMS ONLY:

• If you are interconnecting multiple Alarms, repeat steps 1-5 for each Alarm in

the series. When you are finished, restore power to the junction box.

ELECT RICAL SHOCK HAZARD. Do not restore power until all Alarms are

completely installed. Restoring power before installation is complete

may result in serious elect rical shock, injury or death.

6. Make sure the Alarm is receiving AC power. Under normal operation,

the Green power indicator light will shine continuously.

7. If the Green power indicator light does not light, TURN OFF POWER TO THE JUNCTION

BOX and recheck all connections. If all connections are correct and the Green power indicator

still does not light when you restore the power, the unit should be replaced immediately.

8. Test each Alarm. Press and hold the Test/Silence button until the unit alarms.

When testing a series of interconnected units you must test each unit

individually. Make sure all units alarm when each one is tested.

If any unit in the series does not alarm, TURN OFF POWER and recheck connections.

If it does not alarm when you restore power, r eplace it immediately.

SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR INTERCONNECTED ALARMS

• Failur e to meet any of the above requirements could damage the units

and cause them to malfunction, removing your protection.

• AC and AC/DC Alarms can be interconnected. Under AC power, all units will alarm

when one senses smoke. When power is interrupted, only the AC/DC units in the series

will continue to send and receive signals. AC powered Alarms will not operate.

Interconnected units can provide earlier warning of fire than stand-alone units, especially

if a fire starts in a remote area of the dwelling. If any unit in the series senses smoke,

all units will alarm. To determine which Alarm initiated an alarm, see below:

• On Initiating Alarms Red LED flashes rapidly

• On All Other Alarms Red LED is Off

Interconnect units within a single family residence only. Otherwise all households will

experience unwanted alarms when you test any unit in the series. Interconnected units

will only work if they are wired to compatible units and all requirements are met. This unit

is designed to be compatible with: First Alert ® / BRK® Models 9120, 9120B, SC9120B,

7010, 7010B, 7010BSL, 7020BSL, 7020B, SC7010B, SA520; BRK Heat Alarm Models

the alarm. If date is past, replace alarm immediately.

• Clean the Alarm at least once a month; gently vacuum the outside of the Alarm

using your household vacuum’s soft brush attachment. Test the Alarm. Never

use water, cleaners or solvents since they may damage the unit.

• If the Alarm becomes contaminated by excessive dirt, dust and/or grime, and

cannot be cleaned to avoid unwanted alarms, replace the unit immediately.

• Relocate the unit if it sounds frequent unwanted alarms. See

“Locations To Avoid For Smoke Alarms” for details.

• When the battery back-up becomes weak, the Alarm will “chirp” about once

a minute (the low battery warning). This warning should last 7 days, but you

should replace the unit immediately to continue your protection.

If the st robe light lens is loose or broken, the entir e unit should be replaced

immediately. Never remove t he strobe light lens f or any reason. Doing so

can permanent ly damage the unit and will void your warrant y.

Actual battery service life depends on the alarm and the environment in which it is installed.

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 UL STD 217.

•

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.

It is important to test this unit every week to make sure it is working properly. Using the t est button

is the recommended way to test this Alarm. Press and hold (You should only use a finger or thumb. Use

of any other instrument is strictly prohibited.) 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, 3 beeps, pause, 3 beeps and the strobe light will begin flashing.

When testing a series of interconnected units you must test each unit

individually. Make sure all units alarm when each one is tested.

Note: If you have interconnected this alarm with a BRK carbon monoxide alarm, when

you test that alarm you will hear a loud repeating horn pattern from this alarm: 4 rapid

beeps, pause, 4 rapid beeps, pause. In addition, the strobe light will flash approximately

1 flash per second for four flashes, then 3 seconds off. The pattern is repeated.

If you have interconnected this alarm with a BRK combination smoke & carbon monoxide alarm,

when you test that alarm you will hear a loud continuous beeping sound and the strobe light

will flash constant approximately 1 flash per second. Then you will hear a loud repeating horn

pattern from this alarm: 4 rapid beeps, pause, 4 rapid beeps, pause and the strobe light will flash

approximately 1 flash per second for four flashes, then 3 seconds off. The pattern is repeated.

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.Do not look directly at

or touch the lens while the strobe light is flashing. Doing so can hurt your eyes or burn your fingers.

PROPER DISPOSAL OF UNIT

To Properly Dispose of Unit: Waste electrical products should not be disposed of with regular household

waste. Please recycle where facilities exist. Check local requirements for disposal of Lithium powered electronic

devices. Alarm should be disabled before disposal. See “Permanently Disabling the Alarm” section.

IF THIS SMOKE & STROBE LIGHT ALARM SOUNDS

RESPONDING TO AN ALARM

During a smoke incident at this alarm, you will hear 3 beeps, pause, 3 beeps and

the strobe light will flash constant approximately 1 flash per second.

Note: If you have interconnected this alarm with a BRK carbon monoxide alarm or

combination smoke & carbon monoxide alarm, if there is a carbon monoxide incident

you will hear a loud repeating horn pattern from this alarm: 4 rapid beeps, pause, 4

rapid beeps, pause. In addition, the strobe light will intermittently flash approximately

1 flash per second for four flashes, then 3 seconds off. The pattern is repeated.

If you have interconnected this alarm with a BRK smoke alarm, heat alarm or a combinat ion smoke

& carbon monoxide alarm, if there is a smoke incident you will hear a loud continuous beeping

sound, pause and the strobe light will flash consistently (approximately 1 flash per second).

•

If the unit alarms and you are not testing the unit, it is warning you of a

potentially dangerous situation that requires your immediate attention. NEVER

ignore any alarm. Ignoring the alarm may result in injury or death.

•

Never disconnect the AC power to quiet an unwanted alarm. Disconnecting the power

disables the Alarm so it cannot sense smoke. This will remove your protection. Instead,

open a window or fan the smoke away from the unit. The Alarm will reset automatically.

•

If the unit alarms get everyone out of the house immediately.

•

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD: Attempting to disconnect the power connector from the

unit when the power is on may result in electrical shock, serious injury or death.

When an interconnected system of AC powered units is in alarm, the alarm indicator light on the

unit(s) that initiated the alarm will blink rapidly. It will remain OFF on any remaining units.

If the unit alarms, get everyone out of the dwelling immediately.

If the unit alarms and you are certain that the source of smoke is not a fire—cooking smoke

or an extremely dusty furnace, for example—open a nearby window or door and fan the

smoke away from the unit (Use the Silence Feature to silence the Alarm). This will silence

the alarm, and once the smoke clears the unit will reset itself automatically.

WHAT TO DO IN CASE OF FIRE

•

Don’t panic; stay calm. Follow your family escape plan.

•

Get out of the house as quickly as possible. Don’t stop to get dressed or collect anything.

•

Feel doors with the back of your hand before opening them. If a door is cool, open it slowly. Don’t

open a hot door. Keep doors and windows closed, unless you must escape through them.

•

Cover your nose and mouth with a cloth (preferably damp). Take short, shallow breaths.

•

Meet at your planned meeting place outside your home, and do a

head count to make sure everybody got out safely.

•

Call the Fire Department as soon as possible from outside. Give your address, then your name.

•

Never go back inside a burning building for any reason.

•

Contact your Fire Department for ideas on making your home safer.

Alarms have various limitations. See “Limitations of Smoke Alarms” for details. Battery Backup: Battery

provides backup for the smoke alarm during power outages. (Note: will not power the strobe light).

IF THE CO ALARM SOUNDS

“ALARM-MOVE TO FRESH AIR”

If you hear the CO alarm horn and the CO red light is flashing, move

everyone to a source of fresh air. DO NOT deactivate the alarm!

Actuation of your CO Alarm indicates the presence of carbon monoxide (CO) which can

kill you. In other words, when your CO Alarm sounds, you must not ignore it!

IF THE CO ALARM SIGNAL SOUNDS:

Press the Test/Silence button.

Call your emergency services, fire department or 911. Write down the number of your local emergency

service here:

____________________________________________________________

Immediately move to fresh air—outdoors or by an open door or window. Do a head count

to check that all persons are accounted for. Do not re-enter the premises, or move away

from the open door or window until the emergency services responder has arrived, the

premises have been aired out, and your CO Alarm remains in its normal condition.

After following steps 1-3, if your CO Alarm reactivates within a 24-hour period, repeat steps 1-3 and

call a qualified appliance technician to investigate for sources of CO from fuel-burning equipment and

appliances, and inspect for proper operation of this equipment. If problems are identified during this

inspection have the equipment serviced immediately. Note any combustion equipment not inspected by the

technician, and consult the manufacturers’ instructions, or contact the manufacturers directly, for more

information about CO safety and this equipment. Make sure that motor vehicles are not, and have not,

been operating in an attached garage or adjacent to the residence. Write down the number of a qualified

appliance technician here:

____________________________________________________________

NOTE: A qualified appliance technician is defined as “a person, firm, corporation, or company that

either in person or through a representative, is engaged in and responsible for the installation, testing,

servicing, or replacement of heating, ventilation, air conditioning (HVAC) equipment, combustion

appliances and equipment, and/or gas fireplaces or other decorative combustion equipment.”

NOTE: When power is applied, unit(s) may alarm momentarily.

*When any Alarm in an interconnected series triggers an alarm, its Red LED

will flash. The Red LEDs will remain OFF on any remaining alarms in the series.

This feature helps responders identify which unit(s) triggered the alarm.

**NOTE: The strobe light will not operate under battery power.

***NOTE: Latching feature will not operate under battery power.

USING THE SILENCE FEATURES

The Silence Feature is intended to temporarily silence the horn while you identify and correct the

problem. Do not use the Silence Feature in emergency situations. It will not extinguish a fire.

The Silence Feature can temporarily quiet an unwanted alarm for several minutes. You can silence

this Alarm by pressing the Test/Silence button on the alarm cover for at least 3-5 seconds.

After the Test/Silence button is released, the Red LED blinks during the silence mode.

WHEN THE SMOKE ALARM IS SILENCED...

The Smoke Alarm will remain silent for up to 10 minutes, then return to normal operation.

If the smoke has not cleared–or continues to increase–the device will go back into alarm.

To silence Alarms in an interconnected series: To silence an interconnected series of Smoke/

CO Alarms, you must press the Test/Silence button on the initiating alarm (The unit with the

flashing red light; the red light will be off on all other Alarms.). If you press the Test/Silence

on any other Alarm, it will only silence that unit, not the whole interconnected series.

SILENCING THE END OF LIFE / LOW BATTERY WARNING

This Silence Feature can temporarily quiet the low battery warning “chirp” for up to 8 hours if AC power

is present. Press the Test/Silence button on the Alarm cover until you hear the acknowledge “chirp”.

Once the low battery warning “chirp” silence feature is activated, the unit continues to flash

the green light once a minute for 8 hours. After 8 hours, the low battery “chirp” will resume.

The Alarm will continue to operate as long as AC power is supplied. However, replace the

unit as soon as possible, to maintain protection in event of a power outage.

To deactivate this feature: Press the Test/Silence button again. The unit will go into Test Mode

and the low battery warning will resume (LED flashes and unit sounds “chirp” once a minute).

LATCHING FEATURES

Alarm Latch is activated after an Alarm is exposed to alarm levels of smoke. This feature will only

work with AC power. After smoke levels drop below alarm levels, the Red LED will begin to flash

once every few seconds. It will continue to flash or “latch” until you clear it by testing the alarm.

This feature helps emergency responders, investigators, or service technicians identify which unit(s) in your

home were exposed to alarm levels of smoke. This can help investigators pinpoint the source of smoke.

The Latching Alarm Indicator stays ON until you clear it, so it can alert you to an alarm that occurred while

you were away from home, even though smoke present in the air has dropped below alarm levels.

Low Battery Latch is activated when the Alarm is in the “low battery condition”. When this occurs, the

LED flashes Green On for 2 seconds/Off for 2 seconds. This feature is designed to help you identify which

Alarm needs to be replaced. Although the Alarm will sound the low battery chirp approximately once

every minute, sometimes during the initial stages of “low battery”, the Alarm will chirp in greater intervals

than one minute, sometimes up to several hours, until the battery reaches a steady low battery level. This

innovative feature eliminates the frustration of waiting for and/or identifying which unit is chirping.

“SMART INTERCONNECT” FEATURE

This Alarm includes “Smart Interconnect” which enables the Alarm to be interconnected with other First Alert

and BRK Smoke, Heat, and “Smart Interconnect” CO Alarms. When smoke is detected, all Alarms will sound

the smoke horn pattern. When CO is detected, “Smart Interconnect” Alarms will sound the CO horn pattern.

IF YOU SUSPECT A PROBLEM

Smoke Alarms may not operate properly because of dead or weak batteries, a build-up of dirt, dust

or grease on the Smoke Alarm cover, or installation in an improper location. Clean the Smoke Alarm

as described in “Regular Maintenance,” then test the Smoke Alarm again. If it fails to test properly

when you use the test button, or if the problem persists, replace the Smoke Alarm immediately.

•

If you hear a “chirp” approximately once a minute, replace the unit.

•

If you experience frequent non-emergency alarms (like those

caused by cooking smoke), try relocating the Alarm.

•

If the alarm sounds when no smoke is visible, try cleaning or

relocating the Alarm. The cover may be dirty.

•

If the alarm does not sound during testing, make sure it is

receiving AC power from the household current.

Always disable the branch circuit before servicing an AC or AC/DC Alarm. First, turn off the

AC power at the circuit breaker or fuse box. Next, remove the battery from Alarms with battery

back-up. Finally, press and hold the test button for 5-10 seconds to disable the branch circuit.

Do not tr y fixing the alarm yourself – t his will void your warranty!

If the Alarm is still not operating properly, and it is still under warranty, please

see “How to Obtain Warranty Service” in the Limited Warranty.

PERMANENTLY DISABLING THE ALARM

After 10 years of operation or low battery warning, permanently disable the alarm by following

the diagram below. Insert tool into slot in red disable switch. Slide switch fully to the left.

Note: At end of life or low battery indication (chirp): unit must be put into disabled mode

to disable remaining stored energy in battery. Unit will no longer function once put

into this mode. Unit will resist re-mounting and will chirp every 2 seconds until plug is

disconnected from AC power source. Once disabled, replace Alarm immediately.

RECOMMENDED PLACEMENT

FOR HEARING IMPAIRED SMOKE ALARMS

WITH INTEGRATED STROBE LIGHT

Smoke Alarms with Integrated Strobe lights intended for the hearing impaired should be located in the

bedroom where a hearing impaired person sleeps. Additional alarms should be located in any room

where a hearing impaired person may be present and need to be notified of a smoke danger.

According to NFPA 72, for wall mounting, a 177 candela strobe light must be used in a sleeping area when

mounting height of lens is less than 24 inches (61 cm) from the ceiling. A Smoke Alarm with an integrated

Strobe light must be placed in accordance with the Smoke Alarm placement recommendations.

For Wall Mounting the alarm should be between 4 inches and 12 inches (100 mm and 300 mm) from ceiling to

avoid the “dead air space”. For Ceiling Mounting the alarm should be placed at least 4 inches (100 mm) from

wall or corner (see “Locations to Avoid for Smoke Alarms” below). In addition, for wall or ceiling mounting,

the unit must be located within 16 linear feet (4.8 meters) from top of lens to the pillow (see diagram below).

RECOMMENDED PLACEMENT

STROBE LIGHT OUTPUT FOR WALL & CEILING MOUNTING

The intensity of the strobe light gradually lessens as the angle increases. In other words, the light is brightest

directly in front of the strobe light and is progressively less bright to either side. The following illustrations show

how the strobe light is dispersed. Use them to help you choose where to locate units for the hearing impaired.

PHOTOSENSITIVE EPILEPSY AND STROBE FLASH RATES

Individuals who are susceptible to photosensitive epilepsy might have an increased

probability for seizures with multiple strobe lights flashing asynchronously. The frequency

or speed of flashing light that is most likely to cause seizures varies from person to person.

Generally, flashing lights most likely to trigger seizures are between the frequency of 5 to

30 flashes per second (Hertz). This strobe light flashes at about 1 flash per second.

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° C) and 100° F (38°

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.

AGENCY PLACEMENT RECOMMENDATIONS

NFPA 72 Chapter 29

“For your information, the National Fire Alarm and Signaling Code, NFPA 72, reads as follows:”

29.5.1* Required Detection.

California State Fire Marshal (CSFM)

Early warning detection is best achieved by the installation of fire detection equipment in all rooms and

areas of the household as follows: A Smoke Alarm installed in each separate sleeping area (in the vicinity,

but outside bedrooms), and Heat or Smoke Alarms in the living rooms, dining rooms, bedrooms, kitchens,

hallways, finished attics, furnace rooms, closets, utility and storage rooms, basements, and attached garages.

LOCATIONS TO AVOID FOR SMOKE ALARMS

For best performance, AVOID installing Smoke Alarms in these areas:

•

Where combustion particles are produced. Combustion particles form when something burns. Areas

to avoid include poorly ventilated kitchens, garages, and furnace rooms. Keep units at least 20 feet (6

meters) from the sources of combustion particles (stove, furnace, water heater, space heater) if possible.

In areas where a 20-foot distance is not possible – in modular, mobile, or smaller homes, for example

– it is recommended the Smoke Alarm be placed as far from these fuel-burning sources as possible.

The placement recommendations are intended to keep these Alarms at a reasonable distance from

a fuel-burning source, and thus reduce “unwanted” alarms. Unwanted alarms can occur if a Smoke

Alarm is placed directly next to a fuel-burning source. Ventilate these areas as much as possible.

•

In air streams near kitchens or within 5 feet of a cooking appliance. Air currents can draw

cooking smoke into the sensing chamber of a Smoke Alarm near the kitchen.

•

In very damp, humid or steamy areas, or directly near bathrooms with showers. Keep

units at least 10 feet (3 meters) away from showers, saunas, dishwashers, etc.

•

Where the temperatures are regularly below 40° F (4° C) or above 100° F (38° C) including

unheated buildings, outdoor rooms, porches, or unfinished attics or basements.

•

In very dusty, dirty, or greasy areas. Do not install a Smoke Alarm directly over the stove

or range. Clean a laundry room unit frequently to keep it free of dust or lint.

•

Near fresh air vents, ceiling fans, or in very drafty areas. Drafts can blow smoke

away from the unit, preventing it from reaching sensing chamber.

•

In insect infested areas. Insects can clog openings to the sensing chamber and cause unwanted alarms.

•

Less than 12 inches (305 mm) away from fluorescent lights. Electrical “noise” can interfere with the sensor.

•

In “dead air” spaces. “Dead air” spaces may prevent smoke from reaching the Smoke Alarm.

AVOIDING DEAD AIR SPACES

“Dead air” spaces may prevent smoke from reaching the Smoke Alarm. To avoid

dead air spaces, follow the installation recommendations below.

On ceilings, install Smoke Alarms as close to the center of the ceiling as possible. If this is not

possible, install the Smoke Alarm at least 4 inches (100 mm) from the wall or corner.

For wall mounting (if allowed by building codes), the top edge of Smoke Alarms should be placed between

4 inches (100 mm) and 12 inches (300 mm) from the wall/ceiling line, below typical “dead air” spaces.

On a peaked, gabled, or cathedral ceiling, install the first Smoke Alarm within 3 feet (0.9

meters) of the peak of the ceiling, measured horizontally. Additional Smoke Alarms may be

required depending on the length, angle, etc. of the ceiling’s slope. Refer to NFPA 72, The

National Fire Alarm and signaling Code for details on requirements for peaked ceilings.

ABOUT SMOKE ALARMS IN GENERAL

Battery (DC) operated Smoke Alarms: Provide protection even when electricity fails, provided

the batteries are fresh and correctly installed. Units are easy to install, and do not require

professional installation. They do not, however, provide interconnected functionality.

AC powered Smoke Alarms: Can be interconnected so if one unit senses smoke, all units alarm. They do

not operate if electricity fails. will operate if electricity fails, provided the AC with bat ter y (DC) back-up:

batteries are fresh and correctly installed. AC and AC/DC units must be installed by a qualified electrician.

Wireless Interconnected Alarms: Offer the same interconnected functionality as with hardwired

alarms, without wires. Units are easy to install and do not require professional installation. T hey provide

protection even when electricity fails, provided the batteries are fresh and correctly installed.

Smoke Alarms for Solar or Wind Ener gy users and bat ter y backup power systems:

AC powered Smoke Alarms should only be operated with true or pure sine wave inverters.

Operating this Smoke Alarm with most battery-powered UPS (uninterruptible power supply)

products or square wave or “quasi sine wave” inverters . If you are will damage t he Alarm

not sure about your inverter or UPS type, please consult with the manufacturer to verify.

Smoke Alarms for t he hearing impaired: Special purpose Smoke Alarms should

be installed for the hearing impaired. They include a visual alarm and an audible

alarm horn, and meet the requirements of the Americans With Disabilities Act. These

units can be interconnected so if one unit senses smoke, all units alarm.

Smoke alarms are not to be used with detector guards unless the

combination has been evaluated and found suitable for that purpose.

All these Smoke Alarms are designed to provide early warning of fires if located, installed

and cared for as described in the user’s manual, and if smoke reaches the Alarm. If you

are unsure which type of unit to install, refer to local building codes as they may also

require specific units in new construction or in different areas of the home.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT CO

WHAT IS CO?

CO is an invisible, odorless, tasteless gas produced when fossil fuels do not burn completely,

or are exposed to heat (usually fire). Electrical appliances typically do not produce CO.

These fuels include: Wood, coal, charcoal, oil, natural gas, gasoline, kerosene, and propane.

Common appliances are often sources of CO. If they are not properly maintained, are improperly ventilated,

or malfunction, CO levels can rise quickly. CO is a real danger now that homes are more energy efficient. “Air-

tight” homes with added insulation, sealed windows, and other weatherproofing can “trap” CO inside.

SYMPTOMS OF CO POISONING

These symptoms are related to CO POISONING and should be

discussed with ALL household members.

Mild Exposure: Slight headache, nausea, vomiting, fatigue (“flu-like” symptoms).

Medium Exposure: Throbbing headache, drowsiness, confusion, fast heart rate.

Extreme Exposure: Convulsions, unconsciousness, heart and lung

failure. Exposure to Carbon Monoxide can cause brain damage, death.

Many cases of reported CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING indicate that while victims are aware they

are not well, they become so disoriented they are unable to save themselves by either exiting the

building or calling for assistance. Young children and household pets are typically the first affected.

This CO Alarm measures exposure to CO over time. It alarms if CO levels are extremely high in a

short period of time, or if CO levels reach a certain minimum over a long period of time. The CO

Alarm generally sounds an alarm before the onset of symptoms in average, healthy adults. Why is

this important? Because you need to be warned of a potential CO problem while you can still react

in time. In many reported cases of CO exposure, victims may be aware that they are not feeling

well, but become disoriented and can no longer react well enough to exit the building or get help.

Also, young children and pets may be the first affected. T he average healthy adult might not feel any

symptoms when the CO Alarm sounds. However, people with cardiac or respiratory problems, infants,

unborn babies, pregnant mothers, or elderly people can be more quickly and severely affected by

CO. If you experience even mild symptoms of CO poisoning, consult your doctor immediately!

FINDING THE SOURCE OF CO AFTER AN ALARM

Carbon monoxide is an odorless, invisible gas, which often makes it difficult to locate the source of

CO after an alarm. T hese are a few of the factors that can make it difficult to locate sources of CO:

•

House well ventilated before the investigator arrives.

•

Problem caused by “backdrafting.”

•

Transient CO problem caused by special circumstances.

Because CO may dissipate by the time an investigator arrives, it may be difficult to locate the source of CO.

BRK Brands, Inc. shall not be obligated to pay for any carbon monoxide investigation or service call.

POTENTIAL SOURCES OF

CO IN THE HOME

Fuel-burning appliances like: portable heater,

gas or wood burning fireplace, gas kitchen

range or cooktop, gas clothes dryer.

Damaged or insufficient venting: corroded

or disconnected water heater vent pipe, leaking

chimney pipe or flue, or cracked heat exchanger,

blocked or clogged chimney opening.

Improper use of appliance/device: operating

a barbecue grill or vehicle in an enclosed

area (like a garage or screened porch).

Transient CO Problems: “transient” or on-again-off-again CO problems can

be caused by outdoor conditions and other special circumstances.

The following condit ions can result in transient CO situations:

Excessive spillage or reverse venting of fuel appliances caused by outdoor conditions such as:

•

Wind direction and/or velocity, including high, gusty winds. Heavy air in the

vent pipes (cold/humid air with extended periods between cycles).

•

Negative pressure differential resulting from the use of exhaust fans.

•

Several appliances running at the same time competing for limited fresh air.

•

Vent pipe connections vibrating loose from clothes dryers, furnaces, or water heaters.

•

Obstructions in or unconventional vent pipe designs which can amplify the above situations.

•

Poorly designed or maintained chimneys and/or vents.

Extended operation of unvented fuel burning devices (range, oven, fireplace).

Temperature inversions, which can trap exhaust close to the ground.

Car idling in an open or closed attached garage, or near a home.

These conditions are dangerous because they can trap exhaust in your home. Since these

conditions can come and go, they are also hard to recreate during a CO investigation.

HOW CAN I PROTECT MY FAMILY FROM CO POISONING?

A CO Alarm is an excellent means of protection. It monitors the air and sounds a loud alarm

before Carbon Monoxide levels become threatening for average, healthy adults.

A CO Alarm is not a substit ute for proper maintenance of home appliances.

To help prevent CO problems and reduce the risk of CO poisoning:

•

Clean chimneys and flues yearly. Keep them free of debris, leaves, and nests for proper air flow. Also, have

a professional check for rust and corrosion, cracks, or separations. These conditions can prevent proper air

movement and cause backdrafting. Never “cap” or cover a chimney in any way that would block air flow.

•

Test and maintain all fuel-burning equipment annually. Many local gas or oil companies

and HVAC companies offer appliance inspections for a nominal fee.

•

Make regular visual inspections of all fuel-burning appliances. Check appliances for excessive rust and

scaling. Also check the flame on the burner and pilot lights. The flame should be blue. A yellow flame

means fuel is not being burned completely and CO may be present. Keep the blower door on the furnace

closed. Use vents or fans when they are available on all fuel-burning appliances. Make sure appliances

are vented to the outside. Do not grill or barbecue indoors, or in garages or on screen porches.

•

Check for exhaust backflow from CO sources. Check the draft hood on an operating

furnace for a backdraft. Look for cracks on furnace heat exchangers.

•

Check the house or garage on the other side of shared wall.

•

Keep windows and doors open slightly. If you suspect that CO is escaping into your home, open

a window or a door. Opening windows and doors can significantly decrease CO levels.

In addition, familiarize yourself with all enclosed materials. Read this manual in its

entiret y, and make sure you understand what to do if your CO Alarm sounds.

REGULATORY INFORMATION FOR SMOKE/CO ALARMS

REGULATORY INFORMATION FOR CO ALARMS

WHAT LEVELS OF CO CAUSE AN ALARM?

Underwriters Laboratories Inc. Standard UL2034 requires residential CO Alarms to sound when exposed to levels of

CO and exposure times as described below. They are measured in parts per million (ppm) of CO over time (in minutes).

UL2034 Required Alarm Points*:

•

If the alarm is exposed to 400 ppm of CO, IT MUST ALARM BETWEEN 4 and 15 MINUTES.

•

If the alarm is exposed to 150 ppm of CO, IT MUST ALARM BETWEEN 10 and 50 MINUTES.

•

If the alarm is exposed to 70 ppm if CO, IT MUST ALARM BETWEEN 60 and 240 MINUTES.

* Approximately 10% COHb exposure at levels of 10% to 95% Relative Humidity (RH).

The unit is designed not to alarm when exposed to a constant level of 30 ppm for 30 days.

CO Alarms are designed to alarm before there is an immediate life threat.

Since you cannot see or smell CO, never assume it’s not present.

•

An exposure to 100 ppm of CO for 20 minutes may not affect average, healthy

adults, but after 4 hours the same level may cause headaches.

•

An exposure to 400 ppm of CO may cause headaches in average, healthy

adults after 35 minutes, but can cause death after 2 hours.

Standards: Underwriters Laboratories Inc. Single and Multiple Station carbon monoxide alarms UL2034.

According to Underwriters Laboratories Inc. UL2034, Section 1-1.2: “Carbon monoxide alarms covered by these

requirements are intended to respond to the presence of carbon monoxide from sources such as, but not limited

to, exhaust from internal-combustion engines, abnormal operation of fuel-fired appliances, and fireplaces. CO

Alarms are intended to alarm at carbon monoxide levels below those that could cause a loss of ability to react

to the dangers of Carbon Monoxide exposure.” This CO Alarm monitors the air at the Alarm, and is designed to

alarm before CO levels become life threatening. This allows you precious time to leave the house and correct

the problem. This is only possible if Alarms are located, installed, and maintained as described in this manual.

Gas Detection at Typical Temperature and Humidit y Ranges: The CO Alarm is not formulated to detect CO

levels below 30 ppm typically. The elderly and individuals with medical problems should use warning devices

that provide audible and visual signals for CO concentrations under 30ppm. This device is designed to protect

individuals from the acute affects of carbon monoxide exposure. It will not fully safeguard individuals with

specific medical conditions. If in doubt, consult a medical practitioner. Tested for false alarm resistance to

Methane (500 ppm), Butane (300 ppm), Heptane (500 ppm), Ethyl Acetate (200 ppm), Isopropyl Alcohol (200

ppm) and Carbon Dioxide (5000 ppm). Values measure gas and vapor concentrations in parts per million.

Audible Alarm: 85 dB minimum at 10 feet (3 meters).

SPECIAL COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS

This Smoke Alarm alone is not a suitable subst it ut e for complete f ire detect ion systems in places

housing many people—like apartment buildings, condominiums, hotels, motels, dormitories, hospitals,

long-term health care facilities, nursing homes, day care facilities, or group homes of any kind—even if

they were once single-family homes. It is not a suitable substit ute for complete f ire detection systems

in warehouses, industrial facilities, commercial buildings, and special-purpose non-residential

buildings which require special fire detection and alarm systems. Depending on the building codes

in your area, this Smoke Alarm may be used to provide addit ional protection in t hese f acilit ies.

FCC COMPLIANCE

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part

15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference

in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not

installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.

However, there is no guarantee that the interference will not occur in a particular installation.

If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception,

which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged

to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

•

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

•

Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

•

Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that of the receiver.

•

Consult the dealer or an experienced radio or TV technician for help.

Changes or modifications to the product, not expressly approved by First Alert / BRK

Brands, Inc., could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept

any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

GENERAL LIMITATIONS OF SMOKE/CO ALARMS

This Smoke/CO Alarm is intended for residential use. It is not intended for use in industrial applications where

Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requirements for Carbon Monoxide Alarms must be met.

The Smoke Alarm portion of this device is not intended to alert hearing impaired residents. Special purpose Smoke

Alarms should be installed for hearing impaired residents (CO Alarms are not yet available for the hearing impaired).

Smoke/CO Alarms may not waken all individuals. Practice the escape plan at least twice a year, making

sure that everyone is involved – from kids to grand-parents. Allow children to master fire escape planning and

practice before holding a fire drill at night when they are sleeping. If children or others do not readily waken to

the sound of the Smoke/CO Alarm, or if there are infants or family members with mobility limitations, make sure

that someone is assigned to assist them in fire drill and in the event of an emergency. It is recommended that you

hold a fire drill while family members are sleeping in order to determine their response to the sound of the Smoke/

CO Alarm while sleeping and to determine whether they may need assistance in the event of an emergency.

Smoke/CO Alarms cannot work without power. Battery operated

units cannot work if the batteries are missing, disconnected or dead, if the wrong type of batteries are used, or

if the batteries are not installed correctly. AC units cannot work if the AC power is cut off for any reason (open

fuse or circuit breaker, failure along a power line or at a power station, electrical fire that burns the electrical

wires, etc.). If you are concerned about the limitations of battery or AC power, install both types of units.

This Smoke/CO Alarm will not sense smoke or CO that does not reach the sensors. It will

only sense smoke or CO at the sensor. Smoke or CO may be present in other areas. Doors or other

obstructions may affect the rate at which CO or smoke reaches the sensors. If bedroom doors are

usually closed at night, we recommend you install an alarm device (Combination CO and Smoke Alarm,

or separate CO Alarms and Smoke Alarms) in each bedroom and in the hallway between them.

This Smoke/CO Alarm may not sense smoke or CO on another level of the home. Example:

This alarm device, installed on the second floor, may not sense smoke or CO in the basement.

For this reason, one alarm device may not give adequate early warning. Recommended minimum

protection is one alarm device in every sleeping area, every bedroom, and on every level of your

home. Some experts recommend battery powered Smoke and CO Alarms be used in conjunction with

interconnected AC powered Smoke Alarms. For details, see “About Smoke Alarms” for details.

Smoke/CO Alarms may not be heard. The alarm horn loudness meets or exceeds current UL standards

of 85 dB at 10 feet (3 meters). However, if the Smoke/CO Alarm is installed outside the bedroom, it

may not wake up a sound sleeper or one who has recently used drugs or has been drinking alcoholic

beverages. This is especially true if the door is closed or only partly open. Even persons who are awake

may not hear the alarm horn if the sound is blocked by distance or closed doors. Noise from traffic,

stereo, radio, television, air conditioner, or other appliances may also prevent alert persons from hearing

the alarm horn. This Smoke/CO Alarm is not intended for people who are hearing impaired.

The Alarm may not have time to alarm before the fire itself causes damage, injury, or death, since smoke

from some fires may not reach the unit immediately. Examples of this include persons smoking in bed,

children playing with matches, or fires caused by violent explosions resulting from escaping gas.

This Smoke/CO Alarm is not a substitute for life insurance.

Though this Smoke/CO Alarm warns against increasing CO levels or the presence of smoke, BRK Brands, Inc. does

not warrant or imply in any way that they will protect lives. Homeowners and renters must still insure their lives.

This Smoke/CO Alarm has a limited life. Although this Smoke/CO Alarm and all of its parts have passed many

stringent tests and are designed to be as reliable as possible, any of these parts could fail at any time. Therefore,

you must test this device weekly. The unit should be replaced immediately if it is not operating properly.

This Smoke/CO Alarm is not foolproof. Like all other electronic devices, this Smoke/CO Alarm has

limitations. It can only detect smoke or CO that reaches the sensors. It may not give early warning

of the source of smoke or CO is in a remote part of the home, away from the alarm device.
