10 | EXPIRATION, RECYCLING, AND DISPOSAL
Halo should be replaced every ten years. Once your Halo has expired, you will need to recycle it according to
local regulations and install a more recent model. Halo will alert you when it is reaching its end of life date. Buy
a new Halo/Halo+ alarm and recycle the expired device.
Do not deactivate the alarm until Halo sounds the end of life signal. The end of life signal consists of a short
beep every 45 seconds. Once deactivated, the alarm will no longer function and cannot be reactivated.
10.1.1 | TURN OFF POWER
For safety purposes, turn power off and make sure the status LED light on the alarm is off.
10.1.2 | REMOVE HALO SMOKE ALARM
Twist the alarm to disconnect it from the mounting plate. Unscrew the 3 wire nuts attached to the power
connector. Remove the alarm and wire nuts carefully to keep from damaging your ceiling or wall.
10.1.3 | REMOVE THE HALO MOUNTING PLATE
Unscrew the mounting plate from ceiling or wall. Remove the mounting plate carefully to keep from damaging
your ceiling or wall.
10.1.4 | REMOVE PINS FROM MOUNTING PLATE
The Halo Mounting Plate has two pins used for disabling the alarm.
Using a small screwdriver or a pair of cutting pliers,
remove the two pins from the mounting plate.
