Using this pin will deter children and others from removing the alarm from the mounting plate. To use the pin, insert it into the hole in the side of the alarm after the alarm has been installed on the mounting plate (Image 4D). NOTE: The tamper-resistant pin will have to be removed in order to change the battery (models 1275CA and PE120CA). Use long nose pliers to pull the pin out of the hole. It is now possible to remove the alarm from the mounting plate. Operation Hush® Control Feature Model 1275CA only: Smoke alarms are designed to minimize nuisance alarms. Cigarette smoke will not normally set off the alarm, unless the smoke is blown directly into the alarm. Combustion particles from cooking may set off the alarm if the alarm is located close to the cooking area. Large quantities of combustible particles are generated from spills or when broiling. Using the fan on a range hood that vents to the outside (non-recirculating type) will also help remove these combustible particles from the kitchen. The Hush® button is extremely useful in a kitchen area or other areas prone to nuisance alarms. The Hush® feature has the capability of temporarily desensitizing the smoke alarm circuit for about 7 minutes. This feature is to be used only when a known alarm condition, such as smoke from cooking, activates the alarm. If the alarm does sound, check for fires first. If a fire is discovered, get out and call the fire department. If no fire is present, check to see if one of the reasons listed in Locations to Avoid may have caused the alarm. The smoke alarm is desensitized by pushing the Hush® button on the smoke alarm cover. If the smoke is not too dense, the alarm will silence immediately and “chirp” every 30-40 seconds for approximately 7 minutes. This indicates that the alarm is in a temporarily desensitized condition. The smoke alarm will automatically reset after approximately 7 minutes. If after this period particles of combustion are still present, the alarm will sound again. 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: 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. 13 14 M a i n t e n a n c e Testing NOTE: WEEKLY TESTING IS REQUIRED! 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 Warranty section). Alarms failing an alarm test, or not operating normally, must be replaced with a new alarm. Similarly, alarms more than 10 years old must be replaced. 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). M a i n t e n a n c e Battery Replacement Models 1275CA and PE120CA These alarms have 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. Models 1275CA and PE120CA use a 9 V carbon zinc battery (alkaline and lithium ba...
