IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT
YOUR SMOKE ALARM
• Before installing your smoke alarm, you must read this entire Owner’s
Manual.
• This alarm incorporates the internationally recognized horn signal for
evacuation. During alarm mode, the horn produces three short beeps
followed by a 2 second pause and then repeats. This pattern is some-
what different than the previous alarm sound, which continually beeped.
• Install a smoke alarm in each room and area of your home. See
WHERE YOU SHOULD INSTALL YOUR SMOKE ALARMS.
• Smoke alarms cannot give you an early warning of fire or smoke unless
you install, use and maintain them by following these instructions.
• You must hear the alarm’s warning sound and quickly respond to it to
reduce the risk of damage, injury or death that may result from a fire.
