02 ABOUT SMOKE ALARMS
TYPES OF ALARMS
All these Smoke Alarms are designed to provide early warning of res 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
Smoke Alarm to install, refer the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Standard 72 (National Fire
Alarm and Signaling Code) and NFPA 101 (Life Safety Code). National Fire Protection Association, One
Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269-9101. Local building codes may also require specic units in
new construction or in different areas of the home.
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.
AC with battery (DC) back-up: will operate if electricity fails, provided the batteries are fresh and
correctly installed. AC and AC/DC units must be installed by a qualied 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. They
provide protection even when electricity fails, provided the batteries are fresh and correctly installed.
Smoke Alarms for solar or wind energy users and battery backup power systems: AC powered
Smoke Alarms should only be operated with true or pure sine wave inverters. Operating this Smoke
Alarm with most batterypowered UPS (uninterruptible power supply) products or square wave or
“quasi sine wave” inverters If you are not sure about your inverter or UPS will damage the Alarm.
type, please consult with the manufacturer to verify.
Smoke Alarms for the 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 First Alert
®
Smoke Alarms conform to regulatory requirements, including UL217 and are
designed to detect particles of combustion. Smoke particles of varying number and size are
produced in all res.
Ionization technology is generally more sensitive than photoelectric technology at
detecting small particles, which tend to be produced in greater amounts by aming res,
which consume combustible materials rapidly and spread quickly. Sources of these res
may include paper burning in a wastebasket, or a grease re 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
res, which may smolder for hours before bursting into ame. Sources of these res 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.
03 INSTALLATION
BEFORE YOU INSTALL THIS SMOKE ALARM
IMPORTANT!
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 to escape before re spreads. This unit can ONLY give an early warning
of developing res if it is installed, maintained and located where smoke can reach it, and where all
residents can hear it, as described in this manual. This unit will not sense gas, heat, or ame. It cannot
prevent or extinguish res.
WHERE TO INSTALL THIS ALARM
The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), recommends one Smoke Alarm on every oor, 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, nished attics, and
basements, where temperatures normally remain between 40˚ F (4.4˚ C) and 100˚ F (37.8˚ C). Make
sure no door or other obstruction could keep smoke from reaching the Smoke Alarms.
IN GENERAL, INSTALL SMOKE ALARMS:
• On every level of your home, including nished attics and basements.
• Inside every bedroom, especially if people sleep with doors closed.
• In the hall near every sleeping area. If your home has multiple sleeping areas, install a unit in each.
If a hall is over 40 feet (12 meters) long, install an Alarm at each end.
• At the top of the rst-to-second level stairway, and at bottom of basement stairway.
IMPORTANT!
Specic 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.
RECOMMENDED PLACEMENT:
Smoke Alarm
One on every level and
in every bedroom
Carbon Monoxide Alarm
One on every level and
in every bedroom
Fire Extinguisher
One on every level, plus
kitchen and garage
• When installing on the wall, the top edge of Smoke Alarms should be placed between 4 inches
(102 mm) and 12 inches (305 mm) from the wall/ceiling line.
• When installing on the ceiling, place the Alarm as close to the center as possible.
• In either case, install at least 4 inches (102 mm) from where the wall and ceiling meet.
NOTE: For any location, make sure no door or other obstruction could keep carbon monoxide or smoke
from reaching the Alarm.
WHERE NOT TO INSTALL THIS ALARM
FOR BEST PERFORMANCE, IT IS RECOMMENDED YOU 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 (6 meter) 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. 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 (4.4˚ C) or above 100˚ F (37.8˚ C) including
unheated buildings, outdoor rooms, porches, or unnished 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 uorescent lights. Electrical “noise” can interfere
with the sensor.
• In “dead air” spaces.
AVOIDING DEAD AIR SPACES
“Dead air” spaces may prevent smoke from reaching the Smoke Alarm. To avoid dead air spaces,
follow 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 (102 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 (102 mm) and 12 inches (305 mm) from the wall/ceiling line, below typical
“dead air” spaces.
On a peaked, gabled, or cathedral ceiling, install rst 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 for details on requirements for sloped or
peaked ceilings.
HOW TO INSTALL THIS ALARM
IMPORTANT!
This Smoke Alarm is designed to be mounted on any standard wiring junction box up to a 4-inch (10 cm) size,
on either the ceiling or wall (if allowed by local codes). Read “Where to Install This Alarm” and “Where This
Alarm Should Not Be Installed” before you begin installation.
Tools you will need: needle-nose pliers or utility knife, standard athead screwdriver, wire strippers

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 ammable materials in proper
containers; 4) Keep electrical appliances in good condition and don’t overload electrical circuits;
5) Keep stoves, barbecue grills, replaces and chimneys grease- and debris-free; 6) Never leave
anything cooking on the stove unattended; 7) Keep portable heaters and open ames, like candles,
away from ammable 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 re. Keep at least one working re extinguisher on every level, and an additional
one in the kitchen. Have re escape ladders or other reliable means of escape from an upper level in
case stairs are blocked; 9) Have an escape plan and practice it regularly.
06 IF THIS SMOKE ALARM SOUNDS
RESPONDING TO AN ALARM
During an Alarm, you will hear a loud, repeating horn pattern: 3 beeps, pause, 3 beeps, pause.
! WARNING!
• If the unit Alarms get everyone out of the house immediately.
• 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. ignore any Alarm. Ignoring the Alarm may NEVER
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.
DANGER!
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 and you are certain that the source of smoke is not a re—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.
! WARNING!
Alarms have various limitations. See “General Limitations of Smoke Alarms” for details.
07 USING THE SILENCE FEATURES
The Silence Feature can temporarily quiet an unwanted Alarm for up to 15 minutes.
! WARNING!
The Silence Feature does not disable the unit—it makes it temporarily less sensitive to smoke. For
your safety, if smoke around the unit is dense enough to suggest a potentially dangerous situation,
the unit will stay in Alarm or may re-Alarm quickly. If you do not know the source of the smoke, do
not assume it is an unwanted Alarm. Not responding to an Alarm can result in property loss, injury,
or death. If the unit will not silence and no heavy smoke is present, or if it stays in silence mode
continuously, it should be replaced immediately.
TO SILENCE SMOKE ALARMS IN AN INTERCONNECTED SERIES
1. To silence multiple Alarms in an interconnected series, you must press the Test/Silence button on
the unit(s) that initiated the Alarm.
NOTE: The red LED on the initiating Alarm will ash 3 times, repeating. The red LED will be Off on
all other non-initiating Alarms. No audible sound will be heard. The unit will exit “silence mode” in
approximately 15 minutes.
2. While the unit is in “silence mode”, pressing and holding the Test/Silence button for approximately
10 seconds will test the unit. After testing, the unit will re-enter “silence mode” and the 15-minute
timer is reset.
SILENCING THE LOW BATTERY/END OF LIFE WARNING
This Silence Feature can temporarily quiet the low battery/end of life warning “chirp” for up to 48 hours.
Press the Test/Silence button on the Alarm cover until you hear the acknowledge “chirp”. Once the low
battery/end of life warning “chirp” Silence Feature is activated, the unit continues to ash the green light
5 times every minute for up to 48 hours. Then, the end of life “chirp” will resume. Replace the unit as
soon as possible, to maintain protection in event of a power outage.
IF YOU SUSPECT A PROBLEM
Smoke Alarms may not operate properly because of a dead or weak battery, 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,” and 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” 5 times a minute, replace the Alarm.
• If you experience frequent non-emergency Alarms (like those caused by cooking smoke), try
relocating the Smoke Alarm.
• If the Alarm sounds when no smoke is visible, try cleaning or relocating the Smoke 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.
Do not try xing the Alarm yourself — this will void your warranty!
If the Smoke Alarm is still not operating properly, and it is still under warranty, please see “How to
Obtain Warranty Service” in the Limited Warranty.
08 REGULATORY INFORMATION
FOR SMOKE ALARMS
RECOMMENDED LOCATIONS FOR SMOKE ALARMS
INSTALLING SMOKE ALARMS IN SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENCES
The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), recommends one Smoke Alarm on every oor, 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, nished attics, and
basements, where temperatures normally remain between 40˚ F (4.4˚ C) and 100˚ F (37.8˚ 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 nished attics and basements.
• Inside every bedroom, especially if people sleep with doors closed.
• In the hall near every sleeping area. If your home has multiple sleeping areas, install a unit in each.
• If a hall is over 40 feet (12 meters) long, install an Alarm at each end.
• At the top of the rst-to-second level stairway, and at bottom of basement stairway.
IMPORTANT!
Specic 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.

CALIFORNIA STATE FIRE MARSHAL (CSFM)
Early warning detection is best achieved by the installation of re 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, nished attics, furnace rooms, closets, utility and storage rooms,
basements, and attached garages.
10 SPECIAL COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS
This Smoke Alarm is suitable for use in apartments, condominiums, townhouses, hospitals, day care
facilities, health care facilities, boarding houses, group homes and dormitories provided a primary re
detection system already exists to meet re detection requirements in common areas like lobbies,
hallways, or porches. Using this Smoke Alarm in common areas may not provide sufcient warning to
all residents or meet local re protection ordinances/regulations.
This Smoke Alarm alone is not a suitable substitute for complete re detection systems in places
housing many people—like apartment buildings, condominiums, hotels, motels, dormitories, hospitals,
health care facilities, nursing homes, day care facilities, or group homes of any kind. It is not a
suitable substitute for complete re detection systems in warehouses, industrial facilities, commercial
buildings, and special-purpose non-residential buildings which require special re detection and Alarm
systems. Depending on the building codes in your area, this Smoke Alarm may be used to provide
additional protection in these facilities.
In new construction, most building codes require the use of AC or AC/DC powered Smoke Alarms only.
In existing construction, AC, AC/DC, or DC powered Smoke Alarms can be used as specied by local
building codes. THIS EQUIPMENT SHOULD BE INSTALLED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE NATIONAL FIRE
PROTECTION ASSOCIATION’S STANDARD 72 (National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park,
Quincy, MA 02269). Refer to NFPA 101 (Life Safety Code), local building codes, or consult your Fire
Department for detailed re protection requirements in buildings not dened as “households”.

11 GENERAL LIMITATIONS OF SMOKE ALARMS
Smoke Alarms have played a key role in reducing deaths resulting from home res worldwide.
However, like any warning device, Smoke Alarms can only work if they are properly located, installed,
and maintained, and if smoke reaches them. They are not foolproof.
Smoke Alarms may not waken all individuals. Practice the escape plan at least twice a year,
making sure that everyone is involved – from kids to grandparents. Allow children to master re
escape planning and practice before holding a re drill at night when they are sleeping. If children
or others do not readily waken to the sound of the Smoke Alarm, or if there are infants or family
members with mobility limitations, make sure that someone is assigned to assist them in re drill and
in the event of an emergency. It is recommended that you hold a re drill while family members are
sleeping in order to determine their response to the sound of the Smoke Alarm while sleeping and to
determine whether they may need assistance in the event of an emergency.
Smoke 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 re that burns the electrical wires,
etc.). If you are concerned about the limitations of battery or AC power, install both types of units.
Smoke Alarms cannot detect res if the smoke does not reach the Alarms. Smoke from res in
chimneys or walls, on roofs, or on the other side of closed doors may not reach the sensing chamber
and set off the Alarm. That is why one unit should be installed inside each bedroom or sleeping area—
especially if bedroom or sleeping area doors are closed at night—and in the hallway between them.
Smoke Alarms may not detect re on another level or area of the home. For example, a stand-
alone unit on the second level may not detect smoke from a basement re until the re spreads. This
may not give you enough time to escape safely. That is why recommended minimum protection is
at least one unit in every sleeping area, and every bedroom on every level of your home. Even with
a unit on every level, stand-alone units may not provide as much protection as interconnected units,
especially if the re starts in a remote area. Some safety experts recommend installing interconnected
AC powered units with battery back-up (see “About Smoke Alarms”) or professional re detection
systems, so if one unit senses smoke, all units Alarm. Interconnected units may provide earlier
warning than stand-alone units since all units Alarm when one detects smoke.
Smoke Alarms may not be heard.
Though the Alarm horn in this unit meets or exceeds current
standards, it may not be heard if: 1) the unit is located outside a closed or partially closed door, 2) residents
recently consumed alcohol or drugs, 3) the Alarm is drowned out by noise from stereo, TV, trafc, air
conditioner or other appliances, 4) residents are hearing impaired or sound sleepers. Special purpose units,
like those with visual and audible Alarms, should be installed for hearing impaired residents.
The Alarm may not have time to Alarm before the re itself causes damage, injury, or death,
since smoke from some res may not reach the unit immediately. Examples of this include
persons smoking in bed, children playing with matches, when a person’s clothing catches re
while cooking, res caused by violent explosions resulting from escaping gas, or incendiary
res where the re grows so rapidly that an occupant’s egress is blocked even with properly
located Smoke Alarms.
Smoke Alarms are not foolproof. Like any electronic device, Smoke Alarms are made of components
that can wear out or fail at any time. You must test the unit weekly to ensure your continued
protection. Smoke Alarms cannot prevent or extinguish res. They are not a substitute for property or
life insurance.
Smoke Alarms have a limited life. The unit should be replaced immediately if it is not operating
properly. You should always replace a Smoke Alarm after 10 years from date of purchase. Write the
purchase date on the space provided on back of unit.
